Just wanna let y’all know that when I make fun of my own weight, I’m not making fun of other peoples weight. I joke around as a coping mechanism. All typical human behavior 😀
275 IS a lot.. In what world is 275 not a lot? Lol. Seriously man, you gotta get on that.. How tall are you? Because unless you're nearly seven feet tall, that's pretty much morbid obesity. You big, son! With your experience in quitting all kinds of drugs, losing it should be a cake walk though. You got it. Just dont rush it too quickly or your metabolism will shit out and you'll bounce right back up..
So good to see you back Gabe! I'm still clean of opiates well I lost track its over a year. I never looked back. I have no desire to go through that slavery to the pills again and being sick. I too have packed on some poundage since I got clean. I guess us addicts have to have some kind of comfort lol. It's so good to see you I was a bit worried . I guess we can all eat carrot sticks together! 😋
Gabe, we want more videos you’ve been gone too long. You’ve helped me so much through my suboxone withdrawal. I couldn’t have done it without you! Love V victory and God talk! Please more
I don't think hes their yet, he still has the beard and hasn't spoke much regarding his final push through it. Its good to see some drive and ambition to lose the weight, sounds like some of the apathy is going away. He can do it he's made it this far, were all with him. + God eminence
Wow I just watched an inspiring video on Now You See TV channel about a man who started out at 600 lbs and he has lost 140 lbs so far! He made me want to exercise more & lose some weight. Then you posted this. There are no coincidences 🙏❤
Yeah man U look really good Elrod. Keep it rolling with the healthy living. All the weight I lost after I quit suboxone is now back….. pretty typical of me.
@@gabemccall3523 Appreciate it Brother! We both rockin it man. Think where we were 3 years ago.👌 Gotta get a chance to call and catch up sometime soon! I stay stupid busy with these 5 all the time and I know you stay busy all the time. Love ya Brother‼️
YES!!! Share your secrets. I've packed on weight over the last year myself. I'm just glad to see you making videos I don't care what they are about just good to see you. But, if you show me tips and I feel like I'm dieting with someone it will be more motivation for me!
BRO! I am doing it with you bro. Starting now. 305 lbs. today. I just got done reading EAT SMARTER by Shawn Stevenson, I highly recommend. I have been doing the semi fasting and following his 30 day plan. Its super easy, already down 15lbs.
Hey man, I hope ya make some more videos… I know that you don’t really think about recovery as often which is amazing but if you could make an update video on how your feeling we’d appreciate it brotha!
I cold turkey’d Xanax in December 2014 and was about 350 pounds. By May 2016 I was 405. By 2018, I got down to 180 for the first time in my life. Something about getting off benzos and opiates really changes ya. Lol
Wow that’s scary, I think the hardest time I’m having is the panic that got me on benzos to begin with. Ive cold Turkey quit Oxy but didn’t last. Now doing the Kratom and having to drop the benzo’s too.. I’m freaking out but happy to see it can be done
On subutex i ended up weighing 280 pounds but im same height 6ft 4 "inches as you and the fat went to exactly where you showed i call mine "The apron" it just hangs over and loose clothing covers it all up people get bit nerveous round me as im so big but im a softy at heart i looove gym and running but bust my ankle and now had op to fix it i cant run anymore so gym is great
I must say I’m a little freaked out that you were able to get an image of my floor scale and put it in your video. Yeah I’ve gone through the weight gain as well. Not fun .
Ya I'm not clean Myself I'm on 4mgs of suboxone a day,I used to be hooked on oxycodone,but I am also a bodybuilder I'm getting ready to lean out and do another Competition in Sept.I am 6ft 240 with only 13 percent bodyfat.When I'm in Competition my bodyfat is only 7 percent but I use suboxone so I'm not as healthy as you and I'm going to have a bad heart 😂
I’m still grinding away. It’s amazing how long all this takes. I’ll make other update and topic videos again as well. Been busy and haven’t been feeling like I wanna make any videos lately. My advice would be to do what what I’m finally doing. Exercise and eat right. When I got off suboxone I was extremely dedicated to health and fitness. It made a huge difference in my recovery. Since getting off the Clonazepam I haven’t been doing good at all being healthy.
@@gabemccall3523 Yeah the way I see it. If we keep doing what we are doing then scientifically we are bound to be better at some point. I’ve already suffered through the worst panic and derealization that a human being can go through. Somehow through all the stress of my neurotransmitters changing I have improved. Doesn’t feel like it, but if I look at myself from 3rd person I’ve done well and you have too man.

One thing about being tall, we can gain weight but we can lose it fast as lightning too!!!! I’m 5’10” so I know.
Indeed!
Also didn’t know you’re that tall!

Glad to see you're mentally healthy again and back to yourself prior to the benzo withdrawal

Weight gain tour 😂 i found your channel when researching opiate withdrawal. I am a couple days in.
BRO! I am doing it with you bro. Starting now.

I just got done reading EAT SMARTER by Shawn Stevenson, I highly recommend. I have been doing the semi fasting and following his 30 day plan. Its super easy, already down 15lbs.
Alright let’s do it!
That initial few months of sobriety I would eat like a piggy and put on 10-20lbs.
Hey man, I hope ya make some more videos… I know that you don’t really think about recovery as often which is amazing but if you could make an update video on how your feeling we’d appreciate it brotha!
Good to see you my friend Gabe 👋👋👋

Pretty sure I have you beat 8 months pregnant and gained almost 30 pounds! 😂 I ate 5 slices of pizza last night! Lol great to see you Gabe!!!
Lol. Good to hear from you! Your at the home stretch
Wussup Mr Gabe..U said u had alot of life changes?? How r thing's..Real tlk!!
I’m here for it.
Please tell us your method. I need a good one too, and none of the usual shit works
On subutex i ended up weighing 280 pounds but im same height 6ft 4 "inches as you and the fat went to exactly where you showed i call mine "The apron" it just hangs over and loose clothing covers it all up people get bit nerveous round me as im so big but im a softy at heart i looove gym and running but bust my ankle and now had op to fix it i cant run anymore so gym is great
Pillls we’re my reward for my working out. I was a savage. I’m terrified to work out again. It’s by biggest trigger. Go figure
Of boy yeah that’s tough. I never exercised or did anything healthy at all when I was using. It was all about using to get through work.
How to do you feel after getting off the benzos at this point gabe? Are you back to 100%? You haven’t updated about that in a while..
He's back! I think!
P.S. check out how many subscribers you've gained in just the last year!! People find it easy to relate to you in my opinion.
Thank u very much for that
Would hve to agree
I must say I’m a little freaked out that you were able to get an image of my floor scale and put it in your video. Yeah I’ve gone through the weight gain as well. Not fun .
😂 good to see a comment from you brother
Yes!
You need a bro or the mansier haha
😂 😂 😂 gotta love “the bro”
@@gabemccall3523 good to see you man.
Muscle weights more than fat.
You should lift weights, it keeps me pretty lean. Plus not being on subs helps now that my testosterone isn’t suppressed
Intermittent fasting life, lift 3x per week, ez mode
Oh you already have a system. Nvm lol
Ya I'm not clean Myself I'm on 4mgs of suboxone a day,I used to be hooked on oxycodone,but I am also a bodybuilder I'm getting ready to lean out and do another Competition in Sept.I am 6ft 240 with only 13 percent bodyfat.When I'm in Competition my bodyfat is only 7 percent but I use suboxone so I'm not as healthy as you and I'm going to have a bad heart 😂
How you feeling mentally man? I am 7 months into PAWS and have been struggling. Wonder if you have any advice. Also you’re hilarious.

I hear that a lot. People tell me I sound like him and everything
