My Long History of Weight Loss
Dear Friend,
Today I'm going to do something different. I'm
going to give you a portion of my long history of
weight loss. This is taken from the transcripts of
my Furey Fat Loss Program teleseminar.
Enjoy!
'Starting in the ninth grade of high school, the first time
I had to drop weight, my freshman year, I weighed 158
pounds. I had to drop down to 138 pounds to wrestle.
During the season, it was not uncommon for me to drop
8 to 10 pounds within 48 hours of competition. I did this
year-round, or during that entire season of 4 months.
This was very common. All the wrestlers, back in that
day and age, that1s what they did.
We did everything. We took saunas, we wore rubber suits
under heavy cotton sweats, winter hats, gloves. We dressed
up as warm as we could, to sweat off every last ounce of weight
that was necessary.
In addition to that, I would go a few days without eating. On occasion,
I would go a day or longer without any food or any water, while
simultaneously working out 2 or 3 times - all to drop weight.
My sophomore year in high school, I dropped down to 155 pounds from
175. My junior year, I dropped from 185 down to 155 again. And at one
time, even did the craziest thing ever and dropped down to 145 pounds.
That was a very short-lived experience.
To give you an example of how hard it was for me to cut that weight.
Some of what I1m telling you will sound like just incredible exaggeration.
It may even sound to you, based on your understanding of science, a biological
impossibility.
But I1m telling you that I did this and many other people I know did similar.
And it is possible, but you1ve got to quit thinking in terms of calories and all
of that kind of thing. Because when you1re cutting weight as severely as we
were for the sport of wrestling, calories didn1t mean anything. It was how much
did everything weigh that you were eating.
If you were a half-pound overweight and you needed to drop a half a pound to
make weight, you did not drink 16 ounces of water and say, 3Oh, this will be
no problem because there are no calories in this water.2 Now, when you1re
already dehydrated, you understood that if you were a half-pound overweight
and you drank 16 ounces of weight, you1re now 1 pound overweight.
So it1s crazy, and I don1t recommend this in the least. I1m just giving you the
scope of what I personally have been through.
After cutting down to 145 pounds from 185, my normal wrestling weight
was 155 - which was still a 30-pound drop - but normally I would drop
8 to 10 pounds within 48 hours of the match to make 155.
When I decided to wrestle 145, I literally had to starve and dehydrate myself
to do that. And I lost the match because I was so weak and so tired from all
the weight-cutting.
The next day, we had practice. And this is 23 hours later. I weighed in at
166 pounds.
Now you may say, that1s a biological impossibility, but it1s not when you1re
dehydrated. It1s not when you1re starving. I did not eat 30,000 calories of
food inside of 23 hours. I simply made sure that I had a few gallons
of fluid and a lot of food. And bam, my weight was back up.
During my senior year in high school, I decided to not go out for football.
Football was a sport that you got as big as you could get to play it. I knew
I wanted to wrestle 167 pounds during the wrestling season. So if I went
out of for football, I knew I1d probably be between 185 and 195 pounds.
I didn1t really care for football, because my team during my junior year
of high school was 0 and 9. So being a member of this squad was not
really appealing to me when my biggest love was wrestling.
I really wanted to excel in wrestling and go to college and become a champion.
So I decided to not go out for football and I spent the entire fall getting my
weight down.
My mother told me something that fall. Two things. She said, 3If you just
eliminate all the bread and all the ....'
