Aloha everyone. Glad I have the supporters. By the way, i have never said I was a Bodybuilder. I have never even thought about it. I lifted heavy and used my strength to get what I got. I like to eat. That pic with me and the girl was in Ft Meyers, Fl when I was there putting on a show. That pic was during the bikini contest. All that pic shows is I had no real waist. I was smooth cause I ate food. In fact at that time I was currently sponsored by Hooters (along with Alamo) So I ate a lot of chicken wings. There was no need for me to be all cut up, I needed strength not veins and striations. I am 300 pounds right there on the button.
To whoever asked me how much weight I have lost since the Olympia, right around 55 pounds now. I could lose it faster but I don't want to push it. My goal is to be back around 300 by the end of the year. To the people who said something about filipino being like samoans. Way off, filipinos are small people My dad was 5'6" (filipino) and my mom was 5'3" (german, irish). Even as smooth as you say I am I don't feel I looked as bad as most people who weighed 300 or more. I was also very hard. Almost every pic I have of myself is taken by someone and then sent to me. I hardly ever carried a camera around. I don't have pics of me like that. My abs were never cut but I did have a 4-pack at 300. And even though my ass is HUGE now, I never really had a huge ass. I have always been in very good physical condition. When I got bit I was in my best cardio condition ever. I was getting my weight down to 275 to compete.
So as much as everyone likes to rag on me about how fat I am now, it is something that is obvious. I am not delusional enough to think I am not fat as hell. But in the same breath I can say at least I was in good enough shape to accomplish a lot with the body and strength I had. Everything I have ever done is because of my body and strength. And never did anyone call me fat when I was 300. So, I will keep plugging along to get this frickin weight off and get back into shape. The past several years has been hell no matter what anyone says on here. The people who have seen what I have gone through and my leg in person can tell you.
That thread about willpower for fat people. Is actually very correct. The one thing I had was will power when I was in shape. Even though I ate almost anything I wanted I never went overboard and I trained very hard. When I wasn't able to train I began to eat and everyting changed my willpower weakened big time. Cause I didn't really care. Now things are a lot different. So, it looks like I can get back onto track. I now have a lot of things inspiring to do this. So we will see but I have a feeling I will do it this time. Once I am back I will be fine.
And almost every pic I have of me is around 300 pounds. Some look better than others, but I never thought I looked like a fat slob like I do now. And obvoiusly many other never thought so, cause I got to do a lot of things many people don't and made a lot of money looking the way I did.
