    Good luck!

      Patty…more like Fatty. Hey-O

      No seriously, good luck….and don't fuck my mom.

    • A Dude

      I'll do it with you, bro – though sans dietician and personal trainer – it's time to get in shae for the summer. Let's get this!

    • rlmnofjean-ious

      Luck has nothing to do with it. I'd bet Patty eats 1-2 giant meals a day and has the metabolism of a slug. When you let yourself starve your blood sugar dips, this signals to your body that you're starving and then next meal gets stored as fat. Eat regularly to control your blood sugar levels and your body will shed excess calories.

      Step 1: Weigh yourself in the mornings, after you poop.
      Step 2: Eat breakfast as soon as you wake up to get your metabolism working.
      Step 3: Eat small meals EVERY 3-4 hours. 200-300 calories. Watch the fat/grease. The point is to keep your metabolism working ALL day. You'll also find your less hungry at meal times.
      Step 4: Get a standing desk at the office.
      Step 5: Hit the gym. Do 40 minutes of cardio a day (elliptical, stairs, treadmill if your fat ass doesn't destroy your shins).

      Make sure you're drinking LOTS of water throughout the day. Weight training will also increase your metabolism and give your body calories to burn while it recovers. 1lb of muscle takes about 500calories a day to maintain.

      Track your body fat %, not overall weight. Muscle weighs a lot more than fat.

      and try and have fun….as much as it sucks.

      • kodakkid

        just I quick follow up your trainer and dietician will confirm most of above but i got a trainer in Dec to lose some fat which i did but I gained 12 pounds.So make sure you don't get hung up on weight

    • ted

      the chivery needs to make a shirt that says "dont feed patty"

      • MGWebbington

        ^ would purchase ^

    • mynameismud

      hellz yeah me too

    • BigDingo

      I think he can do it! It's amazing how much fresh whole foods and no junk will trim you up in a healthy, steady way.

      I vote the Chive has a Patty's day celebration when he makes it.

      Also, some Chivette support would be wonderful.

      • BigDingo

        In the form of pictures…

        • Jen

          patty is totally going to get laid b/c of this….

          • James

            Great incentive for people like me and him

            • Dlllea

              or anyone.

  • T.T. Tiger

    The only way this is going to happen is with a dietition and a personal trainer. Eating salad every day will mess you up and you will be off it in a week.

    • whitneysouth

      Hey way to be supportive, douche.

      Not everything that did or didn't work for you is the same for everyone else.

        • hMMMM

          You're going to need those extra 30 lbs. so you can stuff face while on the cruise.

  • bennyboy

    if you can do #4 for all 45 days, you'll succeed!

  • Michael Martinez

    You should post what his diet is… so some of us might try it as well.

    • Steve

      Agreed! would love to see this as well I could use to drop 35 lbs

      • jroc

        its called exercising and not over eatting. Everyone is looking for a damn secret.

    • BigDingo

      Portion control, and fresh, whole foods. No junk, no pop, no booze (sorry). Done.

  • uberbrie

    #17, I remember that gallery…good times

    • LazyTheKid

      Anyone else think he looks exactly like Chris Farley in that picture?

  • Kyle

    You got this Patty!

  • whitneysouth

    Atta boy Patty.
    If you get discouraged… Come the Chivette's…
    I'm sure we could come up with some incentive to remotivate you. 🙂

    • Matt

      Makes me want to diet as well

      • John B

        yeah imma join patty, 235 to 200, fingers crossed

    • BigDingo

      Please do.

      • whitneysouth

        Ohh this could get goood.

        "For every pound lost ….."

        (this is where Chivers finish this sentence with what incentive would motivate them the most haha)

    • OhSomeEvil

      Whitney, you are a godsend of great ideas.
      bless your Chivette heart.

      • whitneysouth

        There's more where that came from 😉

    • Diana Santos

      next friday chivettes could write "go patty" on body together with "chive" :p or something like that

      • mandyfan

        YES!

      • TCB12

        Love it! Hope to see Whitney, you & Mandy tomorrow afternoon.

    • http://twitter.com/surfchef @surfchef

      So I was thinking you could go for a sexy chive-style pic for every 5 lbs lost.

      5 lbs. – sexy stormtrooper
      10 lbs – sexy star trek uniform
      15 lbs – Wonder Woman
      20 lbs – sexy Cheerleader
      25 lbs – hot girl in yoga shorts
      30 lbs – an awesome spread with side boob
      35 lbs – full on Princess Leia slave bikini

      If it won't motivate Patty I am sure it would motivate someone. Even me.

    • http://www.aircraftraffle.co.za Grant

      There you go Patty, the hotties are already offering them selves to you for an incentive….>!!!!!!

      CHIVE………. RUN AN AUCTION TO SEE WHICH HOTTIES GETS TO TAKE THE NEW PATTY ON A DATE…!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Shoestring30

    Good luck man, I did 30 in 60 days so it can be done. Godspeed.

  • the Truth

    weigh to go!

  • The Dude

    But you would make such and awesome Kool-Aid man for halloween. Oh well good luck to you

  • Jayavc

    Good luck! 35 in 45 days is a tall order, but we will be cheering you on!!

    As a person who fights with it myself, I heard it best as "it's all an input /output thing" Try to take up working out along with walking/ jogging. It will help alot. Then just try to cut down on the inputs.

Its simple math really, you eat less calories than your burn, and the weight will start coming of. Take in less, put out more!

      • Ingrid

        actually, thats a bit of a myth – whilst the input output theory is true to a certain extent, there is a lot more to it than that. its about what our bodies were deisgned to eat – when we were cavemen roaming the lands. how much weight you put on is going to depend on the type of food you eat and how the body process that food. insulin metabolizes carbs, lowers blood sugar and tells body to store fuel. so high carb intake = insulin spike = body told to store fat. so it is best to focus on fat and proteins rather than carbs – they will keep you full longer too. and if you are eating carbs, ensure that they are complex carbs that take longer to break down, rather than simple carbs like sugar. and whilst i'm on a nutrition rant – take some

        • Ingrid

          omega three! our bodies need it – both physically and mentally (omega 3s can even control depression!). I am a believer in everything in moderation, so i have by no means given up my morning cereal and milk – or my afternoon chocolates – but with this knowledge i've tried to cut down on carbs, switch rice to quinoa, and added omega 3s. i'm not a nutritionist, these are just my findings based on my own research. for anyone facing a weight loss problem, i encourage you to look into the caveman diet 🙂

          and… go patty! 🙂 but do make sure to loose it safely. good luck!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Nicole-Kirtley/511876169 Nicole Kirtley

    You can do it Patty! And, by the way – I'm thinking you're pretty damned good-looking as you are. 🙂

    • jessica

      yeah, really.
      he's got an amazing smile!

    • CalculatedRisk

      Patty: In there like a bear, without even losing a pound 🙂

    • ShaHiRo

      I was just thinking the same thing! xo Patty

  • Jim

    I hope he's going to be consulting with a nutritionist. Starvation diets are not good and losing that much weight in that short of a time can be equally as dangerous as being overweight.

    • Jennifer

      read the text next. they're getting him a dietician and a personal trainer

      • Jim

        Jeez… duh… how the hell did I miss that??

  • Brad

    It's probably not healthy to lose that amount of weight so quick, just saying…

    • best interest

      a healthy weight loss is1lb a week, maybe 2. averaging about 1lb a day is insane.

      • Jim6

        Yes, you can lose more than 2lbs a week, but you will be losing muscle too. NOBODY wants that. So you will be a skinny person with no muscle and still have a bunch of fat. Ugh.

        • Brad

          and muscle weighs more than fat, so as Patty works out and firms up his muscles, he's surely going to put on a couple lbs of muscle while losing a couple lbs of fat, which means his weight loss will be a little slower than he would expect…

  • mike kleinveld

    TEAM PATTY! Kick some ass man!

    • zach

      I'd rock a team patty tee shirt from the chive…

  • amanda

    Patty's going to be a good looking dude come mid May.

  • WhatWillBee

    Congratulations on learning to read

    • Muthafker

      Damn John, that's my bad then.

  • ydodonutshave2die

    Patty you can do it! You should try a vegan or vegetarian diet. It is better for your heart and will help you lose a ton of weight without starving yourself!!!

    • Nazz1962

      Oh hell no, ya gotta eat MEAT! Those tofu crap vegan diets will cause your dink to shrink and you'll end talking about your feelings and watching Lifetime in the afternoon.

      Keep eating a man's meal (breakfast = eggs, bacon, and a goddamned gun!) etc, but eat less, drink plenty of water (lots of water!), and exercise! That's what I did. It's all about cardio, man … cardio!

      • ROK247

        this man knows his shit.

    • metalmountainco

      BS…sorry, but its simply not true. It is possible, but not without the help of supplements and such. I know that personally, I would have to eat way more than I currently do to get the protein and other nutrients I need to fuel my body for what I put it through.

    • Evelyn Ponce Quintero

      I'm a vegetarian and I'd say it's actually true, I'm convinced I would be 300 lbs if I ate meat 🙂 And I'm perfectly healthy btw, used to be a runner and everything in high school and every time
      I go in for a physical there's nothing wrong with me whatttsoever. Go Patty!

      • ydodonutshave2die

        lol i would too nice to know sum chivers are vegetarian like me!

      Stuff White People Like # 32 Vegan/Vegetarianism

      As with many white people activities, being vegan/vegetarian enables them to feel as though they are helping the environment AND it gives them a sweet way to feel superior to others. For further evidence, note how the vegetarian world has increasing levels of extemism (no meat, no dairy, no eggs, no fish, nothing that has been cooked, etc).

      Much like not watching TV, this makes white people pretty hard to deal with on a day to day basis – having dinner, going to restaurants, having them over to watch political debates all become major challenges as they will talk about how they cannot eat anything and would rather that the meat and cheese be thrown in the garbage than put into their bodies.

      But wait, aren’t there white people who eat organice, grain fed, free range cattle and chicken? Yes, these white people are wracked with guilt knowing that they are eating a dead animal, contributing to rainforest deforestation, and global warming.

      Whether you are dealing with a meat eater or a vegan/vegetarian, there are many ways to use this information to your advantage.

      If you require a favor from a vegetarian white person, you should invite them to a dinner with your family. When your mother/grandmother offers them a dish with meat in it, they will reject it saying that they are vegetarian. When the meal is over, tell them that your mom is very embarrassed, and that in your culture rejecting food is the equivalent of spitting on someone’s grave. They will then owe you favor, this can be repeated when you need trips to the airport, someone to help you move, a small interest free loan, or a place for your friend to crash.

      If you need to gain leverage with a meat eater, it’s pretty easy. They already feel guilty, just point it out.

      • Nazz1962

        Dude, why are you so racist against white people? You see, when you start with 'white people do this, or white people do that', how is that any different than racially profiling a black person, or chinese person, or japanese, etc …
        Please refrain from posting your anti-white rhetoric because quite frankly, nobody cares.
        When you stop making race an issue, racism will go away, and that's all we want. No more racism – enough already!

        This is the second time (that I know of) that you've regurgitated some crap you read in a book.

        Please STOP!

  • equalizermax

    Is he that guy in the picture "thechive World's Famous DAR"?

    • Diana Santos

      i think not…that guy is burnet…patty is blond…

    • DERP!

      Yes, because when you lose weight you also change ethnicities.

  • Floopa Joopa

    You're a badass, Patty. Keep it up!

  • zmoney

    Give up booze n sugar. Drink a gallon + of water a day

  • ss396maxx
