I just started my own weight loss journey a few months ago. I peaked at 360, and about 3 months later, I’m down to 324 today. Long way to go, but the progress has been really motivating. A small change in the right direction snowballed into changing my whole life. My only regret was hesitating
Fantastic work. Lost 40lbs myself. Highly recommend cutting all carbs and sugar. Your body will switch to using fat for fuel
Heck yeah, boys! Down from 320 to 200 myself.
Frankie’s impressions are always spot on holy shit 😂
"Polycules are the Slipknot of relationships" 😂😂😂
Classic
Come for Slob slaying, stay for the boys. 🤌🏼
It's great to hear a group of men being vulnerable and honest with each other regarding addiction. Food addiction is extremely prevalent in this country, and is ignored. Booze, food, drugs and many other things are dopamine drivers. It's the real thing we are addicted to... We have to talk about it, if anyone is going to get better.
Another thing not helping is in an effort to be "nice", we've fostered an environment that virtually celebrates being morbidly obese.
It doesn't help when you have doctors and influencers lying straight to your face saying obesity isn't unhealthy. I believe everyone deserves love and respect, but telling them to be 40+ on the bmi is brave and beautiful is killing them.
Well you’ve got that a bit wrong. We live in Massachusetts and work in Boston, we’re from one of the most areligious areas of the United States. And EJ never said he abstained from alcohol, he’s drinking in this very video. And as for me, I basically don’t know anyone in my life except for maybe my parents and mostly my wife who have completely abstained from drugs and alcohol. And given that I was very atheist until like a year and a half ago, it had nothing to do with religion, I just found drugs an alcohol off-putting from a very young age.
That’s just me trying to put Dad principles out to the universe 🤣
@WildEye why is it so unbelievable that someone would never drink or do drugs?
@WildEye you seem to have a warped view of what "normal society" is and are trying to crowbar religion into for some reason. I've never drank or did drugs, no one I knew growing up did, none of their parents or families did, and none of them were religious
I can relate to the weight loss stories. And it’s great to see so much progress in the comments! I was 235 at the peak. It just creeps up on ya. Especially if you don’t work a regular 9-5:40 job. But nobody would ever eat that extra piece of pizza if you woke up 100 lbs heavier the next day. I’m down to 150 now and have been almost 20 years! 🎉 for me it was moving to japan because 1- food was so small and expensive it’s impossible to gain weight as it is and 2- I walked and biked everywhere so it didn’t take long to drop 85 lbs and never go back. Basically 1500 calories a day and 2-3 hours of bike/walk/run and it was quite a tabogggan ride. I’ve often said in Japan everyone operates at their god given weight. Whatever it is.
One thing that yinz guys didn’t mention though was how your old friends always look at you differently after weight loss. I was often told I look sick and dying because they couldn’t handle seeing the difference. But any new friends you make after have no idea about it unless you tell them. Then if you do they can’t believe it!
Now I truly think that the real cinemassacre is all the friends we made along the way! Perhaps that was bimmies goal all along!
I'm grateful that this community of the assholish variety is actually filled with a lot of cool people. I would have never found RCA otherwise without James!
I quit alcohol back in 2020..I'll be 3 years this October..
I knew I had an issue...wanted to quit...but kept postponing..."Mike's birthdays coming up..", "Going to the game on Saturday"..."Friend's in town for the day"
Kept coming up with excuses...until I had a rude awakening (nobody went to jail, thank god)
I decided I was going to take my first weekend off of drinking..success..then I told myself let's try another weekend..another success..
I went cold turkey...but I took it day by day, in this case weekend by weekend...point is after those baby steps it becomes a regular walk after time..DO NOT give up, there is a light..just stay disciplined
I really toned down my drinking after 3 years. I was at he point where I could finish off a case or beer in about 8 or so hours and always had a nasty hangover that was starting to last 2 days so I decided to cut back and I don't do that anymore and drink a few times a week now.
Hopefully I can quit altogether soon.
Thanks for this convo guys, I'm struggling with weight loss also, I was always very thin my whole life until into my early 20's life stress and metabolism changes hit me hard, got up to 220, (healthy bmi for me is around 150-160) around 199 now and ticking down. Thanks for motivation Franky and Josh. (My dad was 300+ my whole life and died of heart attack at 64, stay healthy for your fam everyone)
holy shit Frankie your dad's accent 😂
I was heavily inspired by Frankie's video on his weight loss. I'm obese (184 pounds) but started at around 195. My goal is to get into the low 160s and so I get exercise at least every other morning. I have a somewhat physically demanding job, and it's enough to keep the pounds off, but not enough to get to where I want to be.
oh man I see you rocking the Shure MV7, I cannot get mine to sound as good as yours at all! sounds great
If you're reading this and find yourself in the "I'm eating and drinking this, might as well eat whatever"... the way i escaped was reframing to "I'm eating this, so i should drink water instead of soda/beer/whatever"... you make one small positive change where you can, and eventually it'll be the default.
Good luck to everyone working on themselves! You've got this
I was 215 in college and got down to about 170. I put it back on and then some after a few years. It’s real easy to get back into eating horribly.
I've been a big guy all my life and it was partially Frankie's original weight loss video (and my diabeetus spiraling out of control and me just being tired of living this way, not being able to find clothes I want for my size, being tired all the time, feeling absolutely ruled by food) that inspired me to kick my ass into gear this year. I started the year at 328 pounds, not my biggest, but basically my borderline normal weight for the past 20ish years. I'm down to 273 as of this morning. Still got a long way to go, but progress is progress. This is the least I've weighed since probably high school, maybe even middle school.
Shout out to all my ex-fats. (That should be a term) I used to be 240 around 175 now. You kno what shout out to my current husky’s I kno it’s rough. Like Frankie said you can totally wake up one day and make that decision and when u do you’ll feel better. Do it for yourself tho
I really toned down my drinking after 3 years. I was at he point where I could finish off a case or beer in about 8 or so hours and always had a nasty hangover that was starting to last 2 days so I decided to cut back and I don't do that anymore and drink a few times a week now.
Hopefully I can quit altogether soon.
it's just always been such a part of my life... i almost can't imagine life without it 😅 but yeah the hangover anxiety i get is a real bitch
I used to be 250 pounds for my first two years of college. There were fast food places connected directly to my dorm. Even when I went to the dining hall, all I ever got was pizza. All my meals were had with at least two cups of Pepsi. When you're on your own for the first time, you can make all the poor eating decisions you want. I lost 70 pounds my final two years by cutting all that shit and only eating chicken breast, carrots, apples, and celery. I also actually started exercising too. That diet was a bit extreme though, and I since regained about 20 pounds, but it's not as bad as it was before. I at least haven't drunk regular soda in about seven years. I'm always aiming to keep going on this fitness journey though!
I completely relate to the covo about how food cravings are like drug addiction. As someone who has tackled both I can completely affirm that they are extremely similar. And honestly food cravings are harder to manage in my experience.
This is actually a pretty good podcast even without Bimmy talk. You might want to consider breaking up the natural flowing conversation with features like "what are you drinking", where you go around and each talk about what alcoholic drinks you've consumed since the last podcast. Or you can have a "is it fucking real" feature where one of you rants on and on about some conspiracy thing and the rest of you quietly nod and wait for it to be over
Can't wait for the episode where Frankie is missing for some reason but EJ and Junt have a slightly-famous younger youtuber on and ask what their favorite video game movies are (that they still haven't watched).
Very relatable discussion. I started porking up during my university years, and it was a real wake up call when I had catch my breath after a flight of stairs.
After that I cut out all the soda, and started exercising more, so I was able to gradually return to my normal weight.
I went from 240ish lbs to 180lbs in 7 months back in 2022, I used to be a heavy drinker and a heavy user of the devil's lettuce. One day it was like a switch was flipped and I can't physically tolerate either anymore. Not drinking 6000+ calories worth of booze every week, and not having to deal with the bad food choices I made while intoxicated made losing the weight a breeze.
While I have you, more people need to use "The Slipknot of Relationships" XD
I don't know how else to put this but when you look at what age overweight people die it's scary. Jon is getting up there and I absolutely love the man even though I've only seen him through videos, I just really hope he gets healthy soon.
The reason you guys got such positive comments about the Kevin Smith vid is because the spirit of your beliefs shows through even when the audience doesn't realize that's what's happening. There's a famine of encouraging/loving criticism in the world right now.
Wow, thank you.
Yes people are craving genuineness, and wholesomeness, even though they probably don’t realize it. The most beautiful model in the world seems that she realized that, so her new HD photography is emphasizing wholesomeness!! ❤ Ya know?
Frankie's dad's accent is AMAZING. Also recessive. Most people I know my age or younger have dropped that. Depends on the city and community, of course.
We're in Concord, NH and it takes us 50-60 mins to get to Boston one-way down 93. Grew up in Peabody/Lynn/Salem, and it's miserable dealing with traffic when I go back to visit family, lol. NH is where it's at when it comes to road quality, no denying it.
My name is John and i'm a carboholic
Hi , John
16:11 I moved to Alabama as a kid, and I recall being called “city boy” because I “ain’t never been huntin’”. Glad it wasn’t just me
My frinds and I smoked pot in college, all of us pretty high-achieving students, and it was totally the situation of finding any excuse.
Is there a full podcast I'm missing? I'm really enjoying the three of you and keep watching all the clip, but it feels like a longer session that I'm missing. Someone let me know.
The full podcast is for Patreon subscribers
Only $2 a month for the whole thing every other week! Or just get the clips here. However you want to best support us.
I slowly pieced it together since I asked and felt bad for asking, lol. But thank you very much for the reply.
Don’t feel bad! I’m very grateful you want more!
It isn't common knowledge that alcohol is the most dangerous drug to quit. It can kill you just by cutting it off after binging. You can develop delirium tremens, have fatal seizures, temporary delusions, etc just from stopping cold turkey. Scary stuff if you ever get to that point. Just wish it was more commonly known after losing two good friends and my cousin to alcoholism.
Kevin Nash's (a famous pro wrestler) son recently died from that exact thing. He decided to quit alcohol cold turkey and had a seizure and died the next day
@@zachary_attackery That is so sad and unfortunate. I feel so bad for their family and friends.
Why is this clip directly speaking to me?
hell yeah a new upload!! sup fellas and sup DwG!!
what's up headquarters of good talking!
@@DancingwithGhosts lol heyo brother!
Pretty sure you guys should do a monthly podcast from now on.

I mean the THREE of you.
@@reinforcedpenisstem they should be a monthly thruple
I wash myself with a rag on a stick
it takes discipline. love you guys
I too grew up overweight and didn't lose it until my 20s. I was only really made fun of for it a few times though; I was mostly ignored, and I neglected my social skills. Ironically, I gained some back since I started working a manual job just because I have disposable income, and stress eating really sounds good after a shitf.
I drink everyday lol. I feel the same way Josh says, when u don't and u wake up like wow?!?! I've cut back to not drink Monday-Thursday, and workout and diet instead. One day at a time "yeeeeaahhhhh" lol that James 'Yeah' always gets a pop from me Frankie! 🤣
yeah that's smart.. unfortunately my job as a karaoke dj drives me to drink 😭
@@DancingwithGhosts I was in a band, and ya man every practice (not to mention shows!) was like party time.
@@thejoeycage all for drinking within reason at shows but i've had a rule personally that i will never drink at practice until practice is over
Boston traffic is worse then before than the pandemic! Takes me like an hour to get out of there when riah hour starts at like 2:30
Soooo true
I too was fat during the years where you make friends and create a social life.
Justin is aware
Lost 120 pounds about 5 years ago. Will never go back
The guy that was with you in the JuntSnes series had a very boston accent.
Haha yes keith does very much so
If you have addictive personality, then anything can be your vice that keeps you down. Weed isn't as harmful as alcohol or excessive eating, but it can be every bit as much of a crutch
Today I learned what a thrupple and policule is lol
i wish i had never learned
I think weeds cool, but I think people who don't like weed are cool too. Exercising and eating a healthful diet is universally cool though. Nice talk, I enjoyed!
Pensacola represent!
haha, we want to do a show in Pensacola eventually
Can't really relate, always been thin as a stick, but I've always wondered how people let themselves go like that. And now I know, it's just one small, easy to make, but ultimately shitty decision each day that leads you there. Interesting.
Sugar causes the same chemical reaction in your brain as cocaine, that's why junk food is so damn addicting.
Joe Rogan constantly makes the argument that someone who hasn't tried Marijuana has no right to comment on it. You're right, these are silly opinions to hold. One doesn't need to try something to see how it affects people in his personal and professional life. It is nothing more than drug addicts defending their vices.
For sure. The stoner bro culture is pretty annoying. It took me a few years to fully quit. It made me lazy and complacent as hell. Honestly sometimes I wish I never tried it lol
Some people can smoke 10 times a day and be productive, that ain’t me
@BananaPhoPhilly I'm grateful every day that I never tried it. I'm honestly scared that I'd like it too much... I guess not knowing what I'm missing is for the best. I'm happy you were able to quit. Good job bro.
@@BilltheFifth thanks man. I can moderate pretty much anything except weed so I think im just gonna stay away from it permanently
That was the case years ago but even Joe has become wiser regarding that
I celebrate the good days with snatch and wash the bad ones down with it as well!
My old man take is I'm not a fan of accents getting more generic in America. When I go to Boston I want to hear Boston. When I go south I want to hear the south. When I go Midwest, I want to hear it. You still do, but having a thick accent is sometimes shamed by younger locals. As if you're not as sophisticated if you say "hey didja bring ya cah ta tha cleanah yet?"
I've never understood why people smoke weed plus when someone sits next to you and they have been smoking weed, they really stink
Wicked enta taining, Frankie!
there actually is an issue with forming opinions on something you dont have first hand knowledge of. You are basing things off of assumptions, other peoples experiences, and perhaps, harmful stereotypes. the reason marijuana is ubiquitous has to do with recent legalization and stigmas being broken down. Depending on the strain I can smoke weed and gain focus and drive to accomplish tasks throughout the day.
First hand knowledge is one kind of knowledge - it’s not the only kind. I’d argue that more habitual weed smokers could benefit from some second hand knowledge about how their habit impacts them and those around them.
@@RedCowArcade I'd be welcome to speak to you guys about it from a daily user perspective if you were ever inclined. Sometimes I feel as though there is a misconception you're perpetuating with your understanding of marijuana consumption. It's useful to hear from those who don't smoke, but to imply that daily smokers aren't privy to the feelings of nonsmokers seems a bit presumptive. I've gained a lot of insight since 2000 lol.
@@zerofide all it's ever given me is severe panic attacks, feeling like i was psychotic, and overall just not feeling myself (in a bad way).. I've tried many various strains and they all pretty much at least make me feel not myself which leads to a panic attack.. the shit i smoked from Colorado made me feel psychotic. Then there's the "weed tolerance" that a lot of people develop. I've been told time and time again "if you keep smoking it, those symptoms will go away"... but why would I want to put myself through such awful feelings if I'm not getting any benefit? I donno... CBD is fine because it doesn't have any of the psychedelic components of THC, but besides that I am gooooooood on ever smoking weed again. Shit was not for me at all.
@@DancingwithGhosts it's not something you have to force on yourself, if it doesn't work for you that's ok. Colorado has great marijuana along with Maine, but a lot of those strains are for super users. The strain I always recommend to people who have anxiety issues is granddaddy purp. Several friends who can't smoke due to anxiety swear by that specific strain, of course ymmv.
I think it's due to alcohol and weed being more normalized among youth. I've gotten weird looks and into arguments because I don't smoke pot. If you can be a productive member of society and indulge in marijuana good for you. However, there is a lot of people who cannot manage both and a lot of culture right now is shielding those people from realizing how they are harming themselves. This isn't just an issue with marijuana, but with alcohol too. The difference is marijuana is often seen as harmless and unfairly legalized, which skews the discussion and people ignore the potential harm it can do if you over use it. Meanwhile everyone is warned of the dangers of alcohol and being an alcoholic ect.
Don’t try willpower, try slave mentality. For real, why is it so easy for everyone to quit cigarettes when they enter boot camp? Simple: it’s not allowed. Adopt a slave mentality, tell yourself you’re not allowed to have it. This works much better than willpower.
I'm a BIG big and small Frankie fan, btw.
