I can't do [thing that requires hyperfixation] im autistic and have ADHD!

[-]

PairBroad1763@reddit (OP)

I actually have both too. Yes I am prone to hyperfixation, but it is nearly impossible to do it on purpose.

[-]

oby100@reddit

lol right? Hyper fixation is mostly a curse unless you’re lucky. For every autistic hacker extraordinaire, there’s a thousand obsessed with trains and World War II

If you are fat, you DO NOT jog. You bike or swim, but nothing that is adding stress to your joints.

Brother was 350 pounds, stopped drinking soda and started jogging, lost 150 pounds.

Don't listen to this person. Be smart, don't over exert yourself, and do what you have to to get moving, even if that's jogging.

[-]

Dark_Pestilence@reddit

Nah man, even if you're not overweight jogging sucks for your bones and joints. There are so many better ways to stay fit.

What's funny, this was the original idea behind "healthy at every size".

It wasn't that you're healthy as an obeast hamplanet, it was that no matter how ridiculously fat you are, you can start the journey to become healthy.

Anon probably doesn't get enough government money to buy a bicycle.

[-]

Tripleberst@reddit

I keep telling my mom this but she doesn't listen. I told her that lifting will help her tremendously as well but she won't do it.

Fucked up joints have better long term outcomes than being fat.

[-]

Bs. You can jog just fine even as a fatso, just short distances, one hour tops. Run on gravel instead of asphalt or get some running shoes with foam and you’re good to go. Swimming is superior of course

I like to workout around overwatch. Before every match I have to do a workout as my "price" to enter. If I can't finish the workout then I go do other stuff. If I won my last match I do 25 reps and lose is 50. I mix it up and do squats, push-ups, situps, I have 5 and 10 pound weights and a yoga ball, it's not much but it gets me off my ass. And I'm not getting better at the game but I am getting better at working out.

"Can't keep a routine because of autism" uhh...

sets of 100 foot jogs

???

[-]

PairBroad1763@reddit (OP)

I think that means this fatass couldn't jog more than 100 ft distance without getting heart pain, so he would do sets of them.

[-]

Jeffzie@reddit

I mean that's kinda how couch to 5k starts, I think it's like run for 30 seconds, walk for 2 minutes, repeat for 20 minutes or whatever.

It's how I started years and years ago weighing nearly 300lbs, then lost 120lbs over a year. Taking baby steps looks stupid for the first weeks but you get pretty fast improvement, and it's addictive.

[-]

DecoyOctorok24@reddit

Better than nothing, but I agree with your assessment that you shouldn’t be experiencing heart pain at only 26 unless you’re severely obese.

[-]

KashiFarts@reddit

Yeah 280lb. is fat but heart pain at 26 sounds like 280kg

[-]

Meh_Jer@reddit

Anon could be 5’6” or around that height, making them severely obese.

[-]

Wtf-Road@reddit

Good on him for changing himself. FPH is the best motivator to lose weight.

[-]

Tboom330@reddit

Fph?

Fat people hate

nikoll-toma@reddit

RIP

[-]

LooseButtPlug@reddit

Remember when reddit had a whole subreddit dedicated to fat people hate? The good old days.

[-]

WilfriedOnion@reddit

Thanks Mod it's now on Facebook where hate speech is not only tolerated but algorithm-encouraged

[-]

FrankieFireCock@reddit

I hate when people abbreviate the most random shit like this and expect everyone to know what they’re talking about.

[-]

MockeryAndDisdain@reddit

That subreddit helped so many people.

[-]

13esq@reddit

I don't know if I'd go as far as FPH, but we absolutely do need to bring back shame and end body positivity bullshit.

[-]

philmarcracken@reddit

guilt and shame induction rarely work out long term. they're still trying to point at a person for their titles instead of working against those titles

meaning that the fat person often sets themselves up to fail by identifying their adipose as part of their personality, instead of just stuff attached to their skeleton. When they make it part of 'who they are' instead of what they have, it creates a self fulfilling prophecy

[-]

longfoot@reddit

It's not supposed to help the person being shamed.

It's supposed to stop other people from following the same path.

[-]

MyDogIsDaBest@reddit

Is he maybe just confusing "heart pain" with a stitch from exertion? Tbh it sounds like this anon is on a good trajectory and I hope it continues well for him.

[-]

DappyDee@reddit

Maybe recommending Anon to try DDR games might be a good idea.

Being fat is gross. Whenever I see a fat person exercising I cheer them on mentally because they are actively trying to be less gross.

I like how way back in the day the ruling class tried to pull a "being fat means prosperity" trick on us as if looking like Jabba with a powdered wig was some sort of flex.
