350 isn't behemoth. I've been that heavy before. I was 400 before I woke up and reverse course. Most of it was because I was a massive alcoholic and a glutton. I was still pretty active, I just ate that much. Once I quit drinking and eating like shit my whole life changed. I was always getting sick, getting cellulitis and staph infections in my extremities, couldn't breathe, had sleep apnea, the works.
I knew if I kept getting fatter I'd end up 500, 600 lbs and beyond the point of no return. People still can't believe I lost the weight and kept it off. Most people can't effectively change themselves, statistically. But somehow I'm the exception. And I'm super grateful. I was always embarrassed when I had to go to the E.R. for something because I knew my weight had contributed to the ailment. That's the problem with most of these people: they've got too much self-respect when they shouldn't. Without that profound sense of disgust in myself and public shame I'd probably still be a fat fuck waddling around with bags of hamburgers without a care in the world, on my way to an early grave.
