Reddit mentions of JUMBO SUNFLOWER SEEDS Sunflower Seeds, Ranch, 5-Ounce (Pack of 12)

I lost a bunch of weight (from 310lbs down to 215lbs) by starting martial arts. It wasn't specifically BJJ, though BJJ was a part of the training.

For me, the most important part was to get into a routine where I was training on the days I said I would. It helped that my wife also trained and I've read that people who have someone to train with have a significantly higher chance of sticking with it, regardless of the activity. If you have the chance, get a friend to go as well. Honestly, it is hard to NOT make friends at any martial arts school. If you become friends with people at the gym, it will help you to keep the routine.

The next most important thing for me was to just cut back on portions. I didn't really change WHAT I was eating (that came later after the weight loss), but I cut back on HOW MUCH I was eating. Instead of 3 hot dogs, I ate 2. Instead of 2 Jumbo Jacks, I had 1. Instead of a footlong sub, I had a 6" or 8" sub. That seemed to make a big difference as well because I could still eat what I wanted (no deprivation), but I just ate less of it and ate small snacks to stave off hunger. This is when I became addicted to sunflower seeds as a way to keep my mouth busy and my hunger satisfied. These are the best sunflower seeds and if anyone disagrees, I challenge you to a thunderdome battle using chihuahuas as weapons.

Good luck and, most importantly, have fun!
