Comment posted How I Lost 300 Pounds – My Weight Loss Story by Chelsea.
Rob,
You are a very, very intelligent man, and I admire that you never gave up. Thank you so much for writing your story here; you’ve truly inspired me. I hope I can be as motivated as you, and believe in myself more, so that I can lose the weight I want to look and actually feel good about myself one day.
All the best, and again thank you. :]

hello
how fascinating! wow I would like to congratulate you on this weight loss. I am not fat at all but I am dieting because I don’t like having some weight to what I am used to.
I am planning to lose 20 pounds during 2 months.
when I diet, I only eat yogourts and fruits and drink water and juices.
I know it is crazy but last time I dieted I was very happy with myself, tall and thin, it was in 2004, I kept it off for at least 2 years but I think I let myself go because of some problems but I didn’t take too much back.
by the wa, you are very different in the 2 pictures, you are an example and I really love that you did that, that proves you have strenght.
take care

Hey, I was about 45 pounds overweight, then I got type 2 diabetes, pretty much got my act together overnight, after that…..NO MORE SUGAR, seriously, this works like a charm. cut out sugar and high and medium glycemic foods. Im sure we’ve heard it a thosand times but the weight will fall off within months, even without additional exercise.
Just have patience.
All the best. Dave

Great story Rob.
Mr Cooper
You seriously rock. Thanks for the inspiration and thank you for taking the time to create this blog. I really appreciated reading the honest description of your journey
Kind Regards

Rob,
A very inspiring story for anyone. I have a question… After you lost the body fat and began bodybuilding, did you still practice the same food combination principles?
I weight train regularly and play sports and have always eaten healthy foods, but hadn’t paid attention to the correct food combinations (ie. no protein with starches). Now I’m having trouble designing meals that don’t combine foods that will hinder digestion.
Rob,
Wow! What an inspiration you are! I am in the middle of my own weight loss journey. While I am currently in a bit of a plateau, I’ve already lost over 50 lbs!
I just want to say that I admire how you just keep at it every single day! Good for you, man!
“It all began with a decision”
“I began to use the power of my mind to attract success. I used creative visualization, affirmations and the power of the written word to set intentions. I learned a unique concept regarding thought – that I could create my life exactly the way I wanted it, just by believing it to be so.”
I like this parts the most because that’s the way I live my life too.
What mind believes the body can achieve.
Karlo, thank you for your comments. I appreciate your input.
I’ve had a look at your website and I’m afraid that I have to say that I won’t link to it any longer.
I DO NOT approve of weight loss drugs or pills as your website clearly promotes. It’s the policy of my websites not to link to any pharmaceuticals as they’re simply poisoning the body and creating the environment for ill health.
I completely welcome your comments, however, I will be pulling the links effective now.
Ok, no problem mate I won’t put a link onto my comments anymore.
cheers
Karlo
Nice story rob, i very enjoy to read your story!
hope you dont mind that i forward this link for my friends.
great work!
Glad you liked it Stewart. I’ve removed the links to your diet pills website as it’s my policy to NOT link to pharmaceuticals or weight loss pills.
Thanks for your understanding
Now these are the kind of stories that we all need hear so that we can stay encouraged. I admire Rob’s spirit and commitment which obviously seems to have paid off big time.
Nothings impossible!
“I believe that once you make a decision and fully commit to it, that the universe supports your decision and attracts into your life things that wouldn’t ordinarily be. Facts came my way, people with info came my way and I began to learn new lessons.”
Beautiful. Good for you, Rob. And kudos for having the courage and humility to share your story. You could let the world assume you’re just another hot guy out trying to tell the world how to better take care of our bodies, but you chose to share where you came from and what brought you to this place. Embracing your former self and using the things he taught you to educate and enlighten is no small thing. You should be proud, of more than just your remarkable reformation.
Cheers and good luck to you!

Kimberly, thank you so much for your kind words.
“Hot guy?”
thanks for that too
I liked you better when you were 475. JK. Great job. You are an inspiration. I am working on losing my weight as well, but I still have a long way to go. fubolympics.com
This was unbelievably inspirational. I am overcoming an eating disorder through exercise and proper eating and this story was just the thing to remind me the power of treating your body right. Also, you’re absolutely gorgeous! I hope I meet a guy as wonderful as you are
Please keep up the good work, and keep us informed. My husband and I will definately put your advice into action. You are very inspirational. We do not believe in pills either and were having a rough time with eating right or knowing what time of night to stop eating as we were night owls. So thanks again. And Yes! you are
HOT.
Thanks!
I’m already a vegetarian. I was feeling so down because I stopped losing weight. I’ve been stressed as alot was going on in my life. A resounding “duh” echoed in my brain when you said that you simply walked. I’ve been worried about how to lose weight, which excersize program is right for me, which gym would be right for me, but in my current condition, I couldn’t possibly bear to go to the gym. Fat folks are conceited, you know… we always think someone is going to stare.
Anyway, I plan on walking as long as I like starting tomorrow. I’ll go back to doing sit ups. I was able to use some of the infomation you posted, and I can’t wait to order the books! I’m most interested in the 24 hour cycle. It makes perfect sense.
Anyway, thanks so much for the inspiration. I really needed it. I signed up for your newsletter. :3

Rob,
As a Chef, it’s always been tough to stay on point…two years ago through diet and consistent excercise program, I lost about 110 lbs. Unfortunately, I changed my habits and gained back some of the weight. Now, I’m back on track, and reading your story reminds me of how in focus I was, and now need to be.
Thanks, maybe we can keep in touch, I am doing a lot online too, and would love to hear how your blog has grown and evolved.
Take Care,
Chef Tony

I really would like to thank you for sharing your experience. I am overweight and have struggled with what to do to take control of my life. I thank you for offering tips on what you did so that I too can implement them in my life.
Rob,
In the beginning of your story you wrote about the terrible stretch marks you had and indicated you would write about how you got rid of them later. I didn’t see anything in your wonderfully inspirational story of “how you lost 300 pounds” and I tried to search your blog, but it didn’t help. I’d really like to learn about this.
Thanks.
Kathi
This was motivating. It is very hard for me to loose weight because I am insulin resistant. So far I have lost 11 lbs. I still have another 74 to go. I hope I reach my goal. And yes, please tell us how you got rid of the stretch marks. And how do you still manage to keep the weight off?
Rob,
I thoroughly enjoyed reading your story. I’ve been struggling with weightloss and excerise. Your story has motivated me to take one step at a time and also to realize that little is much when a person hasn’t been doing nothing at all. Just by starting a little excerise and eating right can lead to good health.
Thanks so much,
Linda
YES–_THANKS!!
