Didn’t read past the part where he said he was “built like an offensive lineman”, because that combined with the title is all I need to know. Being 6’2” is not an excuse to be a fucking fat ass behemoth. I’m sick of these “strong” fat men. And writing about how “I’m fat, but I know it’s bad” does not help his case. Fuck him.

350 pounds at 6’2” is a BMI of almost 45. Jesus Christ. And no, most of it isn’t muscle.

Their delusion that they're "strong" is one of the funniest pieces of FatLogic ; Nadja Hermann confessed in her book that the notion that at least she was "strong" because she was fat was the most consoling, hardest to lose bit of fatlogic of them all. But she GAINED strength as she lost weight, because her muscles had been atrophying under the layer of lard in which she'd encased them . I doubt it's any different for men.
