My 400 Pound Food Addiction

Today, I open up about the biggest insecurity in my life, my Binge Eating Disorder/Food Addiction. I talk about how eating ruined my life, and how I plan to get better!

Thank you for taking the time to watch my video!

I’m so incredibly proud of you dude, weight loss is a turbulent journey but the only way to make that journey is happen is by starting. You’re already there, can’t wait to see your progress into becoming the best person for yourself :) 🖤

I’m happy you are happy Alex! You’ve got this!

[hectorhuerta]

So happy for you! Let’s keep going! I started at 340 and I’m currently at 270, a good diet, water only, and light cardio (walking) will do wonders!

Alex, from another brother that recently started his own weight loss/healthy lifestyle journey. Thank you for uploading this. I wish you the absolute best.

P.S: Don't underestimate the power of walking. Getting those 10k steps a day does make a huge difference. Physically and mentally. "if you can't spring, jog, if you can jog, walk". Little by little you get better.

Take it day by day. When I was losing weight every time I slipped up I would downgrade my self and feel terrible. Your only human so don’t get down on urself when ur not perfect! This is a marathon not a sprint, so keep going till you hit that finish line. We’re all rooting you on but if that’s not enough realize your life will completely change for the better the further you go down this road so just keep pushing! You got this

Your vulnerability is incredible. Thank you for sharing your story and journey. Women are sometimes the focus for eating disorders and weight loss, but we forgot that so many men share this burden as well. This is so amazing, I’m excited to see your continued progress !

In world where there is constant pressure to accept over size people, you come out and speak to how dangerous it is as addiction. Something I can really appreciate because we shouldn’t encourage that kind addiction and “ accept it” by offering two free seats in airline for example. I truly wish you best in your journey. You seem like a really nice person.

Takes a lot to put that all out there for the world to see. Mad respect man. ❤️

I am also dealing with severe binge eating disorder and food addiction. I recently just gained 28 lbs in only 8 weeks from binging. I am hoping to finally overcome this and uploaded my first video about it which was very hard to do. I will be following your journey as well and I hope we can both overcome this.

I’m going through a weight loss journey as well right now. Started at 223 and I need to loose 83 pounds. I started 4 weeks ago, and I’m down 12 pounds so far. Thank you so much for being an amazing inspiration to me, and all of us on YouTube. We love you!❤ And we believe in you!❤

Talking about your biggest insecurity takes guts making a video about it for the world to see takes balls! Congrats man on bettering yourself and wanting better for yourself just keep going you got this! Greatness isn’t temporary it’s a lifestyle!!💪

[terrencemccaskey]

This is very brave and I just want to say this is motivational for me as I’m starting my weight loss journey of being 400+ lbs. I have some of the same insecurities ( I have been kicked off rollercoasters for not fitting and I always feel embarrassed asking for an seat belt extension on flights) and my journey has been up and down but I just want to say thank you for using your platform and being transparent. Can’t wait to see your progress!!!

I’m proud of you Alex. I do that too. Whenever I feel depressed (haven’t been diagnosed by a doctor), I eat a lot. You’re gonna make it !

[triple_gem_shining]

youre taking the first steps to defeat your demons! imagine all the better life you can live with a healthy body!! much love alex.

[CedrickBay]

Thanks for this. I got up to 400, and I lost 63 pounds. The last couple weeks I relapsed, and today was the worst. I ate 3 Wendy's triple's. I feel so ashamed, and disappointed in myself... but thank you for reinforcing me with your story. I'm ready to get back on the wagon.

[Pompsie]

You’re already off to an amazing start man keep grinding!!! 🙌🏼

You can tell that Alex put a lot of his soul into this video, good luck Alex so happy for you!
