@Alex B. Had that same realization at a doctor's visit a while ago. Trying to find how to start this weight loss journey after so many failed attempts. Thanks for the inspiring comment ❤️
I was 583...now I am 332 and still working it. This man is my inspiration. Your health is YOUR responsibility ! Own it! It is the greatest gift you have. Be there for your loved ones and enjoy life!
Hes a beast. He would go to my movie theatre job every other day, I saw his progress, every visit he looked thinner. Once i was working out next to him at my local gym. Hes dope.
@@danielsalas7071 I know right? I'm at like 13ish (took a year of hard training, I've never been fat but I had a tiny bit of fat) and trying to get to like 9 or 10. This guy's a beast.
I agree that's extremely impressive, I would be surprised he could do it without having any back strain. I have never weighed 600 and me this dude are about the same age (1 year difference) but at my heaviest, at like close to 400 lbs I would not be able to walk 9 miles.
It's basically your mind that holds you back. You can always make the hard choice but almost every human wants the easier choice - staying home instead of walking 9 miles.
I personally can use this as my motivation to not quite. And fulfill my dream to be a boxer as i mainly struggle with my weight. since april i began to change my diet and start a workout routine. But find it sometimes hard since i lack the support from people like my family, is depressing to see my own parents underestimate me and think i won't ever be a boxer or achieve anything in life and just laugh at my dreams I've even considered suicide but keep reminding myself that it will be over soon 😞😞😓💪💪
I’ve been a big guy all my life. I had just turned 19 years old, 6 foot and 350 lbs. I was at home eating McDonald’s when I noticed this video in my recommended (even thought I had never watched fitness videos on RUclips) seeing this beasts story set a fire in me I didn’t know was there. I took a hard look at myself, and realized not just what I was doing to my body, but my legacy, I wanted to be remembered as the BUFF guy not the big guy. Fed up with my obesity I went to the gym that night for the first time in my life. 1 year (and a lot of hard work) later and I’m proud to say I’ve finally hit my goal weight of 190 lbs! I’ve still got a long way to go to be my best self, but I welcome the challenge. Grateful for guys like Pat to be around showing us boys what it takes to be a real man.
I honestly believe god sent you that sign, there's no other way this video would have popped up in your recommended. And actually, this video has got me motivated myself, I'm currently 14 and weigh 150, and I'm 5 foot 10 inches, the funny thing is that I don't look 150, I look more like I'm 120 because I'm built pretty lean. But anyways I've wanted to build some muscle for a while but never really tried it, so I'm going to have to pump some iron. I'm pretty proud of you though for getting into shape like that, because it takes a lot of motivation, congratulations my friend!
When the comedian and his entourage made fun of him for not being able to do a push-up, all the pain of his childhood bullying must have rushed back to his heart 😕 Thank you for sharing your story.
I think the comedian did a great job I mean sure it was mean but he finally woke and and made a change that was his turning point if the comedian never said that he would probably be dead today
@@whispercars306 that really depends on height. The fat is distributed differently depending on how tall you are if a 7'3 guy was 605 lbs he'd probably look like a 300 pound 6'4 guy
It's not hard when you've felt like shit about yourself for so long. I believe that people have to hit rock bottom before they really know which way is up. It's easy to find excuses but in the end, everything you do either gets you closer to or farther away from your goals. It's how bad you want your goal that counts.
@Abitamim Bharmal have you ever heard of opinions? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I personally love all eye colours and he has beautiful eyes in my opinion
This is GORGEOUS HUMAN BEING. His SPIRIT and you can literally see the HOPE in his big brown eyes😭😍 I’m sooo happy for him and his amazing journey👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽! What an inspiration! I only need to lose 20 pounds, the weight I gained after my mom died last year! I’m so grateful for this video! I’ve been stagnant for a year! But started running my dog 1/4 mile, now a half a mile, no weight loss yet, I only started a few weeks ago, but I move everyday because of people I believe in people like THIS *MAN* ✌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Let's start now before the holidays by New Year's we will have reached our goal ! We Can Do This ! I have a little more than you guys my goal is 45 pounds Let's Get to it Good Luck ! 👍💜✌
“…I was 53% body fat. Half my body was still fat…” This was the part that opened my eyes to myself. I never thought of it like that… brings a new meaning to me. Thank you for this.
bartolongsleeve A combination of bad habits, and a major lack of exercise. I regret letting myself get to this point, I basically wasted my teenage years sheltering myself in my bedroom. Prevented myself from being able to do and wear the things that I wanted to, interact with people how I wanted to. But now that I'm older I want to be able to live life without any physical limitations.
Nobody is probably going to believe me, but, here i go. I am currently 20 years old. 6'11 405. I just currently started my weight loss journey. Weight lifting is SO fun and energetic. Good luck on everyone else's.
thanks for the video. I loved what he said "if you can put on the weight, you can lose the weight." if your able to gain the weight you can definitely lose the weight!
I had the pleasure of getting to know him before he lost the weight. He’s always been such a sweetheart. & seeing his transformation from the beginning makes me so proud❤️
I’m a 60 y/o Black woman from southwest Louisiana. It’s not uncommon for us to eat stuff like smothered potatoes ( smothered with bacon fat) and rice or spaghetti and rice. Rice and fried foods are almost “genetic”! But after viewing this video, you just motivated my old arse to start walking and eating better! I’m 245 in my “skivvies” and I’m determined to weigh under 200 fully dressed! Thanks for sharing. There’s so many of us with the desire to lose and live a quality life but have no idea sometimes how simple it is to start. We need people like you to share and care. Thanks and God bless!😃😃😃
John Young I’m from New Iberia and I’m starting to feel depressed too! Seems like the weight is lying in wait.....ready to pounce. I’ve tried Keto and others but no success! But I’m not giving up!
DEATHTRAP we think nothing of the aforementioned combinations of starches. A lot of times it was eaten that way because of affordability or lack of. Maybe a poor choice of words on my part. I’m just thankful after all those years of overeating and poor meal choices, I’m still here to change!❤️
Soul Rebel the more you have the easier to lose has a limit, when you weight 600 pounds moving is hard, exercise is even harder, walk 6 to 9 miles a day it's hard even for the slightly obese let alone the very very very obese.
More weight = more work = more results. I lost like 40 pounds walking 5-10miles to school for half a year. 6'1, 140pounds. Underweight is a whole different aspect and hard for me to keep muscle at times starving lmao. But 100lbs in 60 days is freaking insane. He put in the work, and then some.
Very inspiring!!! it's videos like this that keeps us all going.... Even on the days that your just not feeling up to training. I too have lost 100 pounds, going from 6'3 340 and now to 6'3 240 at 15% bodyfat. The journey started for me on 1/1/16 and we're still going, Never give up!!!!
Be proud of that brother that's amazing. Remember the journey never ends, always be hungry (for yourself and self motivation) but that's amazing progress man. All the best for the future for you dude
Behind this beautiful smile were so many tears. Motivated me a lot, I lost 60 pounds for the last 3 months, I'm on my 330 now. I'll never stop grinding
1 CORINTHIANS 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” Get fit for your soul!
The more important aspect is why would god want your life to be hard with temptation. Why would he want you to struggle with something that causes you physical and emotional pain. Seems sadistic to me.
The bible isint made to make sense to western minds. Romans 12:1-2 Therefore I urge you brothers in view of Gods mercy to offer your bodies as living sacrifices holy and pleading to him. This is your spiritual act of worship, that you do not conform any more tp the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. God doesent care about you being flawless but he wants you find your true identy in him. When you start focusing on who he is and who you are in him you'll start to be transformed. And holy means to be set apart, not some impossible spiritual plane.
Because he knows you can do Hard things, life is not easy. We learn from overcoming all things. That is what life is about. If life isn’t hard, what is life?

This guy went from a fat old pompous merchant resting on his lorals to a freaking bad ass Spartan warrior making more lorals with himself as King Leonidas.
I believe you could dude 👍🏻 . It’s all knowledge to be honest . And determination . Also helps drinking lots of water in between meals ( once you’ve committed to change) . I don’t care what anyone says . Your going to be hungry 😂. Drink water to get the hunger pains to go away 👍🏻. Keeps you going till next meal . Once you’ve hit target weight . Should still treat yourself but still do some sort of maintenance even if it’s low intensity exercise
Hey y'all 👋🏼, I just wanna say thank you. I am 15 years old and struggled with my weight for years, when I was only 14 years old I weighed 105kg. I came across your video and it honestly inspired me a lot 🙌🏽. A year later I now weigh 70kg, hardwork, exercise and eating clean truly helps. I also became vegan 3 months into my journey and that was seriously one of the best decisions of my life, it worked for me. If your a teenager who struggles with weight please DO NOT care what others say or what they're doing with their lives, focus on yourself and you will see change 🔥💯.
i am also trying to transform my self. i had started my journey when i was 123kg now i am 103 kg in 4 month my aim is 70 - 80 kgs hope i will get to my aimed body weight
At 38 with two young boys, Your such an inspiration to tell me. 'I can still do it' I keep telling myself i'm too old but i'm clearly not. THANK YOU!!!!!
This video has inspired me. I weigh 330 pounds and I'm 5'7. There was just something so sincere about this video that I saved it. Much respect to this man. He's gotta be inspirational to others as well. Much love...
Emily Martin hope you’re doing well. I’m struggling too and hoping to lose about 100lbs. I don’t get on the scale. I haven’t in 5 years. I’m going off of my clothes feeling looser and if people start saying “you look like you’ve lost weight.”
As I'm watching, I'm 17 at 328 Ibs. This video inspired me even more to continue to journey to lose weight, it will be tough but I'm in it for however long it takes.
Thank you for sharing your story Pat! The struggle is so real and you are right, I don't think people fully understand. I have lost a total of 30 pounds now and have been working my way down from 570. I have found accountability through my weekly videos and encouragement through different channels.
You can really see the look on his eyes when he reminisced over those dark times. Like even remembering it was a pain. Thanks for giving me motivation to lose 60 lbs pal, I was an emotional eater and can relate to this so much.
Damn, 100 pounds in 60 days just by walking to get food. Really puts into prospective how much of a fat lazy shit I am.. I am currently 6'5 and about 350 pounds. It's time for me to change that.
Ben Wissem - Not dropping weight as quickly as he did, but that's been my problem forever, it takes me so long to lose the weight. However, with that said, I've lost 36 pounds and counting :) so even though it's not as much, I feel proud of myself. Cut soda completely. Drinking a TON more water and or zero sugar/calorie drinks And I'm consuming much less calories a day in general, averaging at about 1500-1700 a day. I also exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, five days a week.
@@kebataliam496 I've lost 60 pounds in the last 4 months. My fitness app has been a game changer. I cook 90 percent of my meals now, I eat a lot of veggies so I can feel full, and I enter every calorie I eat into the app to make sure I don't eat too much.
Started at 355 3 weeks ago...down to 328 and the journey has only just begun...Stopped drinking....Started eating clean on Keto...Doing IF and also working out everyday...at 5"10 I used to be able to dunk on a 10 foot rim...now those hops are gone...because of drinking and eating awful...happy to put the work in and get out of this...Anyone can get right...You have to want it and embrace the process
The truth about obesity should be revealed. People keep telling it is not healthy, bla bla bla... Facts need to be shared. Starting from bad circulation of blood in your legs, which lead to a number of other issues, to all the illness, where obese people are exponentially more vulnerable. Heart, Lunge, kidneys are overloaded. and so on. If anyone accepts that, it's their choice, but why would anyone else have to accept it?
You’re gorgeous, not just because you’re easy on the eyes but because you’re personality is so humble and sweet!! Thanks for inspiring me to get through another work out tonight ❤️
An awesome description of one man reaching deep within his own person to find self. Incredible achievement, at 54 I am 289 and my gole is to drop 89 pounds an run a marathon. You have inspired me. God Bless You always.
Pat is incredibly impressive. Most of us, myself included, immediately react to the realization that we need to lose weight with some variation of "What program do I need to follow? Who can tell me what I need to do?". And that research definitely has its place... but this guy just went out and took two simple- but very difficult- steps to change his life, and then rolled from there. That's an inspiring show of mental fortitude and discipline.
The gym is my sanctuary, I love working out. Finding inspiration during this time has been a challenge for me with the gym closures. Balancing my weight has been a work in progress my whole life. Especially after having babies! Thank you for sharing your story, your honesty and courage was something I needed to hear today. Sending much love and light to you brother 💡🙏🏼
So inspiring ! I'm amazed by the story, and by the results ! No loose skin, no signs of previous obesity ! This guy is incredible! Big thumbs up and by full respect sir!
After watching this video, i truly gave myself a hard look and i realize i am not happy with my unhealthy lifestyle and how much i eat emotionally. I am currently 370lbs 6ft 3in 29yo, i thought i was going to be fat for the rest of my life but after watching this video. How can i live with that. If Pat can do it i believe i can challenge myself to do it too. i shall lose the weight and be my best self. Thank you for sharing your story Pat really appreciate it. Wishing you all the best!
I work security, I'll be turning 29 soon. Weigh 298lbs, I'm a father of 3 girls. My goal, is to loose 98lbs, and work on my upper body. It's an on going battle for a couple years now, but I'm not quitting.
@@prodigyam5078 I finally got my diet on point without fail. Exercising more. Definitely feel lighter, to even my daughters telling me my "belly is smaller" 😊👌 this is my year.
LOVE of self is key... with self-respect and self-love, we can do anything for ourselves that we DESERVE. Love this video, thank you for sharing, such an inspiration.
Inspiring story to watch about a young man who found his way through his journey to improve his life. I really enjoyed what this man had to say about how he got to where he is today.
Thank you. I'm having an "intervention" of sorts for my daughter next week. She needs to loose and loose a lot unfortunately. But I've already told her, she won't do it alone! I'll be right next to her ever push up, every sit up, every curl, every step. Not bc i need to loose alot, but just bc i want to support her and also bc i feel as her mother, maybe i contributed in some way. After all, i do the shopping and the cooking! So next week, my whole household will start not a diet, but a whole new way of living! We have a lot to live for! Thank you for inspiring me as well as I'm sure her as soon as i make her watch this! Lol. Please, just praying she is ready and accepts it. Bc we all know, you gotta want it, you gotta be in that place that says, no more! In order to truly turn around. Thank you, again, so much! God bless and congrats!
Bro. Absolute tears. You are a hero. Thank you for being a true inspiration! I'm totally within the health and wellness community. I live, eat, breathe supplements, the gym, as clean eating as I can (nobody is perfect, lol), etc... I have my own goals for muscle. I'm not obese at all, but, stories like yours totally drive me. All the best!
I'm 32 been big all my life, 240 lbs or so currently. but I've been running every morning ( ok jogging) and I've started a 30 day push up challenge. I'm not going to give up, don't you give up either.
"Being around people your same size, you don't realize how big you are." All of my family are big, so sometimes I do feel like I'm normal despite being obese.
So proud he made the change. I have lost 90 pounds so far I started at 425 in august of 2019. I'm now 330 I suffered a back injury and couldn't exercise for a long time but now my pain level is better so I can exercise again. Once you change your mindset you can do anything. I have a goal of 180 I'm 5'7 and 51. I have cut out sugar and watch my carbs is what is helping me lose weight.
I am on my own journey. As of today, July 21st 2019 I am down 78 pounds. Everything he said, and I mean EVERYTHING, is how I felt and what happened to me. It can be done. Eat clean, get any exercise you can in and you can do it.
Thank you for giving me hope I started at 625 and now I’m 390 I watch this video every day
Steven Jones great job brother keep at it let’s get it man 💪🏻
Determination and a good workout plan and this video
ibuckley I ate fish and chicken lots of beans veggies no starchy foods
ibuckley my bad yeah black bean pinto beans baked chicken and grilled chicken never fried
Hey hope you still on your weight loss journey... Im just starting hope to stay motivated
When i saw the scale say 385 I felt like my soul left my body. This was back in September, today I'm 285 and workout 5x a week. I'm never going back.

Nobody is probably going to believe me, but, here i go. I am currently 20 years old. 6'11 405. I just currently started my weight loss journey. Weight lifting is SO fun and energetic. Good luck on everyone else's.
Brandon if you got yourself down to 300 with muscle mass you'd be a beast!
That's the goal!
6'11 225? ... Lol i'd look horrible
Brandon You'd look like a beast at 300 especially at 6'11
Good luck, and keep striving! I'm with you and I believe in you
He has such beautiful, friendly eyes. I just want to give him a hug and buy him a beer!
But he's a big, mean bodyguard!!!!
thanks for the video. I loved what he said "if you can put on the weight, you can lose the weight." if your able to gain the weight you can definitely lose the weight!
Well if you able to fort you can shot lol
I had the pleasure of getting to know him before he lost the weight. He’s always been such a sweetheart. & seeing his transformation from the beginning makes me so proud❤️
You came into my Walgreens when I managed the Avondale store a few years ago. Such a good guy! Awesome work. Thanks for sharing.
I’m 27, 5’9 and 395, had a wake up call recently. Finally changing my lifestyle, you just motivated me even more. Thank you.
Keep it going!!!!
How is it going?how much do you weigh now
Update!!
Shock the world!
How's it going now?

U seem skinny, from your videos. But, go ahead. Run boooii
oh wow I can see the sadness in his eyes when telling that story. God bless him and I pray his journey continues and he continues to inspire others!
I’m a 60 y/o Black woman from southwest Louisiana. It’s not uncommon for us to eat stuff like smothered potatoes ( smothered with bacon fat) and rice or spaghetti and rice. Rice and fried foods are almost “genetic”! But after viewing this video, you just motivated my old arse to start walking and eating better! I’m 245 in my “skivvies” and I’m determined to weigh under 200 fully dressed! Thanks for sharing. There’s so many of us with the desire to lose and live a quality life but have no idea sometimes how simple it is to start. We need people like you to share and care. Thanks and God bless!😃😃😃
My name is John I'm also on the Southwest side of Louisiana Lake Charles to be exact I deal with heavy depression behind my weight
John Young I’m from New Iberia and I’m starting to feel depressed too! Seems like the weight is lying in wait.....ready to pounce. I’ve tried Keto and others but no success! But I’m not giving up!
Wdym almost genetic?
DEATHTRAP we think nothing of the aforementioned combinations of starches. A lot of times it was eaten that way because of affordability or lack of. Maybe a poor choice of words on my part. I’m just thankful after all those years of overeating and poor meal choices, I’m still here to change!❤️
good luck lois
Went from 323 to 249 in three months and I’m still losing weight
Wow what did you do?
nice job!
omg what did you do?!
What you did
I did the same thing. List 101 pounds in 6 months. Sadly Ive gained it all back and I hate it. Took me 2 years to get it all back... I hate it.
100 lbs in 60 days???? Kudos brotha!!!
Merc Solo that's impressive
It's easier to lose weight when you're morbidly obese
Soul Rebel the more you have the easier to lose has a limit, when you weight 600 pounds moving is hard, exercise is even harder, walk 6 to 9 miles a day it's hard even for the slightly obese let alone the very very very obese.
Soul Rebel
It still takes a lotttt of effort
More weight = more work = more results.
I lost like 40 pounds walking 5-10miles to school for half a year. 6'1, 140pounds. Underweight is a whole different aspect and hard for me to keep muscle at times starving lmao.
But 100lbs in 60 days is freaking insane. He put in the work, and then some.
I could watch these stories for the rest of my life and enjoy every second of them. I believe in anybody who wants to put in the effort.
Lol why do i feel like the comedian was Kevin Hart
HARRY HO lol same
SAME LMFAO
Kat Williams
Nah Reggie Warrington
EXACTLY
Whom ever thumb down is just jealous! You certainly are my inspiration to get me to where I am to becoming the person that I am to be. 💞
Very inspiring!!! it's videos like this that keeps us all going.... Even on the days that your just not feeling up to training. I too have lost 100 pounds, going from 6'3 340 and now to 6'3 240 at 15% bodyfat. The journey started for me on 1/1/16 and we're still going, Never give up!!!!
Rod B How long did it take you to lose 100 pounds? I'm 6'4 334
Rod B that's good bro stay at it!
That's good bro stay at it
Be proud of that brother that's amazing. Remember the journey never ends, always be hungry (for yourself and self motivation) but that's amazing progress man. All the best for the future for you dude
Mad respect my dude keep at it
He's beautuful inside and out. So happy for him.
Behind this beautiful smile were so many tears. Motivated me a lot, I lost 60 pounds for the last 3 months, I'm on my 330 now. I'll never stop grinding
1 CORINTHIANS 10:13
“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” Get fit for your soul!
The more important aspect is why would god want your life to be hard with temptation. Why would he want you to struggle with something that causes you physical and emotional pain. Seems sadistic to me.
Amen!!!
The bible isint made to make sense to western minds. Romans 12:1-2 Therefore I urge you brothers in view of Gods mercy to offer your bodies as living sacrifices holy and pleading to him. This is your spiritual act of worship, that you do not conform any more tp the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
God doesent care about you being flawless but he wants you find your true identy in him. When you start focusing on who he is and who you are in him you'll start to be transformed. And holy means to be set apart, not some impossible spiritual plane.
Because he knows you can do
Hard things, life is not easy. We learn from overcoming all things. That is what life is about. If life isn’t hard, what is life?
Amen ❤️

I love this series. Keep them coming!
Is it possible to actually post the methods how Pat achieved this weight loss ?
whats the name of the background music?
This guy went from a fat old pompous merchant resting on his lorals to a freaking bad ass Spartan warrior making more lorals with himself as King Leonidas.
Dam bro...that shit was deep.. I got 50 lbs to lose and I'm good..
He is the kind of person you want to succeed. He comes across as such an amazing and genuine human being. So sweet and gentle. God bless him!
went from Mr steal yo Twinkie to Mr steal yo wife.
Bruh dead! lol
*HE STOLE MY TWINKIE*
Lol right. He looks amazing.
Demon YZ hahaha
Demon YZ 😂😂😂😂
Phenomenal story. I'm 6ft 320 and 55 years old. Makes me think I can shed this extra 100 I'm carrying around.
You can shed it. My 58 year old Uncle lost 106 pounds last year and he has kept it off. He is also off all of his medications.
I believe you could dude 👍🏻 . It’s all knowledge to be honest . And determination . Also helps drinking lots of water in between meals ( once you’ve committed to change) . I don’t care what anyone says . Your going to be hungry 😂. Drink water to get the hunger pains to go away 👍🏻. Keeps you going till next meal . Once you’ve hit target weight . Should still treat yourself but still do some sort of maintenance even if it’s low intensity exercise
Update? Any progress? You can do it dude
Hey y'all 👋🏼, I just wanna say thank you. I am 15 years old and struggled with my weight for years, when I was only 14 years old I weighed 105kg. I came across your video and it honestly inspired me a lot 🙌🏽. A year later I now weigh 70kg, hardwork, exercise and eating clean truly helps. I also became vegan 3 months into my journey and that was seriously one of the best decisions of my life, it worked for me. If your a teenager who struggles with weight please DO NOT care what others say or what they're doing with their lives, focus on yourself and you will see change 🔥💯.
This video was 4 years old and Still changing lives that why Testimonies are so important you look great and thanks for the video’s.
The tears show what this man has been through and anyone who has shed those same tears knows exactly what it feels like.
Great job man. Hat off to you
The tears at the start of the video... the beautiful smile at the end of it... simply inspiring! ❤
Pat brocco thank you for your honesty and transparency ... I too struggled with my weight but have found freedom . Proud of you
Imagine people seeing him at his high school reunion
i am also trying to transform my self.
i had started my journey when i was 123kg

Huge respect to Pat in 2018....all the way from St Petersburg Russia 🇷🇺😎
At 38 with two young boys, Your such an inspiration to tell me. 'I can still do it' I keep telling myself i'm too old but i'm clearly not. THANK YOU!!!!!
This video has inspired me. I weigh 330 pounds and I'm 5'7. There was just something so sincere about this video that I saved it. Much respect to this man. He's gotta be inspirational to others as well. Much love...
Emily Martin hope you’re doing well. I’m struggling too and hoping to lose about 100lbs. I don’t get on the scale. I haven’t in 5 years. I’m going off of my clothes feeling looser and if people start saying “you look like you’ve lost weight.”
goddd damn
As I'm watching, I'm 17 at 328 Ibs. This video inspired me even more to continue to journey to lose weight, it will be tough but I'm in it for however long it takes.
How have you been doing on your weight loss?
I wish you all the best♥️
How is your journey going?
Stay strong. You can do it. GOD be with you.
tf u be eating 😧😭😭
Thank you for sharing your story Pat! The struggle is so real and you are right, I don't think people fully understand. I have lost a total of 30 pounds now and have been working my way down from 570. I have found accountability through my weekly videos and encouragement through different channels.
James Jansen keep up the hard work bro, you got this
Thanks Aleksey! It has been a rough road, but I have almost lost 50 pounds now!
Keep up the good work! How much more weight have you lost?
James Jansen nice!!
James Jansen it’s been 11 months, tell us it’s another 50 by now.
#Respect
Tashawn Howell Well put
#u a bitch
RESPECT
You can really see the look on his eyes when he reminisced over those dark times. Like even remembering it was a pain. Thanks for giving me motivation to lose 60 lbs pal, I was an emotional eater and can relate to this so much.
Damn, 100 pounds in 60 days just by walking to get food. Really puts into prospective how much of a fat lazy shit I am..
I am currently 6'5 and about 350 pounds. It's time for me to change that.
Sir Fortesque76 you got this!
Sir Fortesque76 it's been 2 months. update?
Ben Wissem - Not dropping weight as quickly as he did, but that's been my problem forever, it takes me so long to lose the weight.
However, with that said, I've lost 36 pounds and counting :) so even though it's not as much, I feel proud of myself.
Cut soda completely.
Drinking a TON more water and or zero sugar/calorie drinks
And I'm consuming much less calories a day in general, averaging at about 1500-1700 a day.
I also exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, five days a week.
@@FlowerKnight2 Great! How are you doing now?
@@FlowerKnight2 how it going!!!
Wow 300 pounds in three years? Awesome!!!
@Captain Fantastic whoa. How'd you do it? I'm currently trying to lose 100 pounds, to be better able to live life as i want.
@@kebataliam496 I've lost 60 pounds in the last 4 months. My fitness app has been a game changer. I cook 90 percent of my meals now, I eat a lot of veggies so I can feel full, and I enter every calorie I eat into the app to make sure I don't eat too much.
Uncle Freddy so how much did u weigh originally
What a darlin', I really felt for him, seeing the tears in his eyes, he spoke from his 💙
Started at 355 3 weeks ago...down to 328 and the journey has only just begun...Stopped drinking....Started eating clean on Keto...Doing IF and also working out everyday...at 5"10 I used to be able to dunk on a 10 foot rim...now those hops are gone...because of drinking and eating awful...happy to put the work in and get out of this...Anyone can get right...You have to want it and embrace the process
Hows it going? Did you ever get the weight off?
Fat acceptance people need to see this
Exactly my thoughts!
lol
i agree that fat acceptance is crap i fell into that trap and i am paying for it now
Tobias Svärd fat isn't good! People need to see this to see that fat scceptscnce is shit and encourages nasty big weights
The truth about obesity should be revealed. People keep telling it is not healthy, bla bla bla... Facts need to be shared. Starting from bad circulation of blood in your legs, which lead to a number of other issues, to all the illness, where obese people are exponentially more vulnerable. Heart, Lunge, kidneys are overloaded. and so on.
If anyone accepts that, it's their choice, but why would anyone else have to accept it?
That is so smart 🤧 walk to every meal 😌👏🏻
Stephanie Guzman with my lazy ass I would starve 😂💀
Cloudy Oreos TRUE HAHA 😂 💀💀
@OkayRio Beauty thank goodness my Walmart is only 10 minutes away 😌🚶🏽♂️
Damnit when the tear rolled down his cheek... :,( right in the feels man.
You’re gorgeous, not just because you’re easy on the eyes but because you’re personality is so humble and sweet!! Thanks for inspiring me to get through another work out tonight ❤️
Respect man, I'm on my own journey from 540 ton340 right now, so I know the struggle. Thanks for the Inspiration
100 chicken nuggets
Large fry
Apple pie
Large Hi-C
I found myself eating this meal multiple times a week.
Boi, me too.
An awesome description of one man reaching deep within his own person to find self. Incredible achievement, at 54 I am 289 and my gole is to drop 89 pounds an run a marathon. You have inspired me. God Bless You always.
how would you not get tired of their shitty chicken??
Antwun Trademark I could barely eat that in a week tbh
Stanford Moss I’m glad you figured things out but Jesus chicken nuggets sound gross after just 30 of them 😂
I cut out fastfood
Pat is incredibly impressive. Most of us, myself included, immediately react to the realization that we need to lose weight with some variation of "What program do I need to follow? Who can tell me what I need to do?". And that research definitely has its place... but this guy just went out and took two simple- but very difficult- steps to change his life, and then rolled from there. That's an inspiring show of mental fortitude and discipline.
"Addicted to finding results, reaching my goals," that's the mentality I seek as I go through my own fat to fit journey!
That’s actually a show
It’s called fit to fat to fit
It’s really motivational
The gym is my sanctuary, I love working out. Finding inspiration during this time has been a challenge for me with the gym closures. Balancing my weight has been a work in progress my whole life. Especially after having babies!
Thank you for sharing your story, your honesty and courage was something I needed to hear today. Sending much love and light to you brother 💡🙏🏼
I was 252 when I seen this and it motivated me alot and now I'm 180 thank you
Starting tomorrow and want to do every day of 2021
Start weight: 200 lbs
Goal weight: 150 lbs
Let's make 2021 our best year ! 😊 😊 😊
how's it going?
Tell us buddy
So inspiring ! I'm amazed by the story, and by the results ! No loose skin, no signs of previous obesity ! This guy is incredible! Big thumbs up and by full respect sir!
To get down to 9% body fat and still be in the 270's! What a beast! Amazing and inspiring. I love this!
After watching this video, i truly gave myself a hard look and i realize i am not happy with my unhealthy lifestyle and how much i eat emotionally. I am currently 370lbs 6ft 3in 29yo, i thought i was going to be fat for the rest of my life but after watching this video. How can i live with that. If Pat can do it i believe i can challenge myself to do it too. i shall lose the weight and be my best self. Thank you for sharing your story Pat really appreciate it. Wishing you all the best!
I'm happy to see him smile at the end :) Incredible, inspiring story! He seems like a great guy and I wish him all the best in life!
Wow, what a beautiful man. Both inside and out he radiates light. His story is so empowering and encouraging.
I work security, I'll be turning 29 soon. Weigh 298lbs, I'm a father of 3 girls. My goal, is to loose 98lbs, and work on my upper body. It's an on going battle for a couple years now, but I'm not quitting.

Very Motivating to those who don't think its possible. My focal point is "MY FAMILY"... being around for them! Thank you for sharing!

Anthony Tapia you got this!
you can do it.... keep pushing
LOVE of self is key... with self-respect and self-love, we can do anything for ourselves that we DESERVE. Love this video, thank you for sharing, such an inspiration.
Inspiring story to watch about a young man who found his way through his journey to improve his life. I really enjoyed what this man had to say about how he got to where he is today.
Now that's motivation, good job young man
I feel it. All addictions are killing us and we must learn discipline. Discipline is the ultimate freedom.
Thank you. I'm having an "intervention" of sorts for my daughter next week. She needs to loose and loose a lot unfortunately. But I've already told her, she won't do it alone! I'll be right next to her ever push up, every sit up, every curl, every step. Not bc i need to loose alot, but just bc i want to support her and also bc i feel as her mother, maybe i contributed in some way. After all, i do the shopping and the cooking! So next week, my whole household will start not a diet, but a whole new way of living! We have a lot to live for! Thank you for inspiring me as well as I'm sure her as soon as i make her watch this! Lol. Please, just praying she is ready and accepts it. Bc we all know, you gotta want it, you gotta be in that place that says, no more! In order to truly turn around. Thank you, again, so much! God bless and congrats!
You’re a good man, I thank you for your heart.
Bro. Absolute tears. You are a hero. Thank you for being a true inspiration!
I'm totally within the health and wellness community. I live, eat, breathe supplements, the gym, as clean eating as I can (nobody is perfect, lol), etc...
I have my own goals for muscle. I'm not obese at all, but, stories like yours totally drive me.
All the best!
Respect!
How can some people still be able to dislike such a great video testimony ? ...The human race is really full of mystery.
I'm 32 been big all my life, 240 lbs or so currently. but I've been running every morning ( ok jogging) and I've started a 30 day push up challenge. I'm not going to give up, don't you give up either.
Did you lose the weight
Same I'm 224 6 ft and started doing push ups now I'm wquatting and doing a bunch of stuff
Hi, did you succeed at reaching your goal? I pray you did
"Being around people your same size, you don't realize how big you are." All of my family are big, so sometimes I do feel like I'm normal despite being obese.
This man has played a huge role on my Journey. I stared in March 2021 and now I am 85 lbs less. Almost to 100lbs
So proud he made the change. I have lost 90 pounds so far I started at 425 in august of 2019. I'm now 330 I suffered a back injury and couldn't exercise for a long time but now my pain level is better so I can exercise again. Once you change your mindset you can do anything. I have a goal of 180 I'm 5'7 and 51. I have cut out sugar and watch my carbs is what is helping me lose weight.
I am on my own journey. As of today, July 21st 2019 I am down 78 pounds. Everything he said, and I mean EVERYTHING, is how I felt and what happened to me. It can be done. Eat clean, get any exercise you can in and you can do it.
This man is beautiful. RESPECT
inspirational as absolute fuck
biggest respect to this real man!
