I was always a bigger guy, even growing up as a kid I remember trying to lose weight as early as elementary school. In high school I eventually became steady at around 260-270 pounds. I played basketball all the time, and played organized baseball until I was 17. Since I was so active I wasnt overly huge but 270 pounds for a 6'1 guy is still a lot of extra poundage. Then when I quit playing sports I ballooned up like a fucking whale. I eventually got up to 335. I started playing in softball leagues 3 years ago but was still eating badly and just getting some exercise in I dropped down to 300. Part of it was frustration of not being able to play ball like I used to and the other part of it was I just got sick and tired of feeling like shit, so I decided I was gonna get serious about losing weight.
After trying too many different things to even remeber I kinda came up with my own diet, along with taking 75 mg of epederine first thing in the morning along with a pot of coffee. Yeah alot of people say ephederine and caffeine are bad for you, but I guess you gotta figure how fat you are (in my case I was becoming morbidly obese) and if losing weight is worth the epederine.
First thing when I wake up is take 75mg of ephederine (most say your only suppose to take 25mg at a time 3 times a day, but if I take any past noon I cannot sleep at all, I have ended up staying awake for 4 days straight before), along with 600 mg of caffeine pills, I have since replaced that with drinking a pot of coffee. Then the hardest part is I didnt eat a thing until around 5 or 6 o'clock in the evening. I ate whatever I wanted and quite a bit of it, just not Thanks Giving Dinner portions

That one meal is all I ate all day long, so I made sure I satisfied my hunger. After about a year of sticking to that 90% of the time I was down to 205 pounds.
Yeah some people say epederine, caffeine, only eating once a day is bad for you, but I know of all the things I tried this is the only one I could get to work. My blood pressure which was thru the roof is fine now, (not sure about my cholestorol, but I dont worry about it because I dont eat a whole lot of meat). I feel awesome, I really feel like a whole new person and pretty much my whole life is completely different just from having 1000x the energy.
Now that I am in my happy weight area, seems like when I hit 203 my body screams feed me non stop. What I do to maintain is still take my ephederine and drink my coffee but I let myself eat twice a day now, usually around 1 or 2 pm, and eat again around 7 or 8 at night. I try not to eat too much but sometimes I do. If I catch myself getting over 212 I go back to the above until I get back down to the 205 area.
Probably not the best or healthiest method but that is exactly what I did and it worked for me.
