C.C. Sabbathia lost weight by swearing off cereal

No word on whether or not he was also eating the box.

Sabathia was fat, end of story. His size wasn’t steroids, it was Snickers. etv78, have you ever seen a PICTURE of CC Sabathia?

A box of cereal a day is an astonishing amount of food. A small box of sweetened cereal served with milk is 2000 to 2500 calories, easy - as many calories as a normal human should eat in a day. Cut out that much and you’ll lose a LOT of weight.

I lost 20 pounds in ten weeks largely by just not drinking sugared drinks anymore - and I wasn’t as tall or as big as CC Sabathia. You can have a dramatic effect on your weight with straighforward dietary changes.

I lost 15 pounds in 2 weeks just by having hernia surgery :smiley:
And have since gained it all back grumble

I bet you wouldn’t say that about Jason Giambi! :mad:

Guess Joba must have started juicing this off-season then.

I think it was more than just Cap’n Crunch. Maybe let of the beers is more like it.

I seriously doubt that many serious baseball fans are suspicious, for all the various good reasons that have already been spelled out.

I wonder how much Captain Crunch Prince Fielder has been scarfing down?

Mmm… Cap’n Crunch…

I wonder why it’s so hard for people to say something as simple as: “Hmmm, I guess my opinion was somewhat ill-informed. Thanks for the info, everybody.”

Obviously the answer is “pride,” but that’s still ridiculous, because saying something like that, especially when you’re so clearly incorrect, can only improve your reputation.

Seriously, CC looks much better having dropped some weight. It’s a shame Sdney Ponson won’t follow suit.

Donuts. :slight_smile:

With some of those cereals, a cardboard fiber chaser could be healthier than the cereal itself.

I once lost 50 pounds in six weeks by eating little more than grapefruits and being forced to march everywhere.
