Nate Newton weighs 213 pounds! (1 Viewer)

Yep...looks like a different person. Very focused on it, where unfortunately guys like Norman Hand just couldn't get themselves under control.

When they did it years back, Brad Culpepper looked great (former DE from Tampa). I think he basically retired because they wanted him over 300 lbs., and he would just not do it. I think he got down to 185 at one point, IIRC.

 
Good for Nate.

As an aside: It's sorta interesting to see folks who've lost that much weight still have the same body language/mannerisms that they had when they were big. Nate's not the first person I've noticed do that, but it always kinda "freaks me out" anyway. When he was walking up to Deion's house he was totally still walking like a fat guy.

Wonder how long that takes to "unlearn"(if you ever do)?

 
Wow. So newton is now the same weight as me????? If that's not motivation, I don't know what is. My diet starts today!!

 
My wife is a fan of "The Biggest Loser" and as we were watching, first thing I thought is that they should have an all-NFL group (and a partner) on it. Would be a ratings superstar...I would definitely watch.

 
The Dickey's free spicy chedder sausage Jan 28th is looking good.

He had the surgery done, good for him. Many NFL players are turning to it and it only strengthens my argument that they are too darn fat and should not be deemed athletes but no one ever listens to me when I bring this up. The weight of the players has ruined the sport IMO. Early 1980s the avg weight of most OL in the NFL was about 260 lbs. For whatever reason when they banned steroids in the mid to late 80s suddenly the weight of the players shot up and now we have 300-325 lb linemen all over the place. 250 lb QBs, 225 lb RBs, 250+ lb LBs, 230 lb Safeties...just ridiculous.

The 230 pound safeties doesn't bother me from a fat perspective...Basically these guys have HGH supplements going through their system for ten years.But I totally agree about the linemen. They don't need guys 300-400 pounds. It's just fat. Although there is no question that an athletic 350 pound DT clogs the middle more than a 275 pound DT...so it does serve a purpose, though at the detriment of the player's health.
 
The doctor talked about how Nate has to keep working out and eating right. I wonder how it would have gone if he didn't have the surgery but just improved his eating habits and working out. It would have taken longer for sure, but I wonder if he eventually could have lost all that weight without the procedure...

 
They said that he must work out 2.5 hours a day and insinuated that it was part of the plan/surgery. What if he doesn't?
During the segment, he said he's exercising six hours a day, and he admits he won't be able to keep that up.But like most fat people who get thin, they like what they see and do things to an extreme. 45 minutes of cardio five times a week should be fine.
 
I've been texting my friends today, asking them how much they weigh. Pretty sure I gave at least one of them a complex once I informed him that he weighs more than Nate Newton.

 
DALLAS, Texas (Court TV) -- Former Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Nate Newton was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison on August 14 after pleading guilty to drug charges.

Newton, 40, was apprehended with 175 pounds of marijuana in his truck last December. He pleaded guilty in April to conspiracy to distribute and possession with intent to distribute. Newton also was fined $25,000 and ordered to perform 250 hours of community service, lecturing students about the importance of avoiding drugs.

By pleading guilty, Newton avoided a possible 20-year sentence and a $1 million fine. He is scheduled to report to prison on October 8.

Authorities found $10,000 cash in his truck and the marijuana in an accompanying vehicle. The driver of the other car, Charles Deaundra Howard, 25, and a third suspect, Billy Crenshaw also pleaded guilty.

At the time of his arrest, Newton was free on bail for a similar incident in Louisiana. He is accused of driving a van with 213 pounds of marijuana on November 4, 2001. The case is pending.

Newton played 13 seasons in Dallas and was named to the Pro Bowl six times. He also helped the Cowboys win three Super Bowls in the 1990s. He retired in 1999 after playing one season with the Carolina Panthers.

And this guy is in the news why :confused:

 
So....he had a surgery done that allows rapid weight loss (because he didn't have the willpower to do it the right way) and he lost weight because of it. Uh, congrats to him I guess.......

When you have 3/4 of your stomach removed it is hard to keep weight on at all.

takes a helluva lawyer to bury a case like that for over a decade. I know who I'll call if I get thrown in the pokey in New Orleans.
