Get up and Get to it

singingdispatch100

part of what i'm gonna say will sound mean and you can chastise me for it if you want.
basically-buck up and stop whining. no one can change who you are or what you are going to do but you. if you wanna lose the weight then get your ***** up and get to it.
of course its hard. if it were easy we would all be skinny. the fact that you are on this site means you wanna make the change. understand that you need to change more than just your eating and work out habits. you need to change what activities you do to give yourself more energy and a reason to work harder. if you are anything like I used to be i would sit around moping because i was fat and nothing i ever tried would stick. I had no one to push me and so i thought "well if no one else cares why should i?" I went from being 5'6" 135lbs to 5'7" and 290lbs. i got so big i didn't even want my family to be around me. i was a healthy skinny guy with good looks and a winning smile. then i was a short fat ***** whose smile got lost in fat rolls. when i had to leave my shoes tied because i couldn't bend over to tie them and going up the three steps to my front door had me winded, i got pissed. i used to be able to run/walk for miles now i can climb some damn steps.
so i stopped whining and finding excuses for why i couldn't work out. why eating half a pizza was okay. why feeling sorry for myself was better than being pissed off for not working harder.
to quote Yoda-"Do or Do not. There is no try." If you try and manage to succeed then you have done it. If you try and don't succeed then you failed. keep at it until you succeed. they say that if you try then thats what matters. i disagree. what matters is if you try again after you fail until you succeed.
The more weight you lose and the more activities you get into (within reason) will give you more opportunities to feel better yourself and allow you more chances to enjoy the world that you feel you are not worthy to be part of.
i like you have struggle for almost ten years with my weight. up and down, up and down. and each time i would go back to the same old routines.
2 months ago i started a new workout program and a more comprehensive dieting program. since then i have lost almost 20lbs and even that twenty pounds has allowed me to have more energy and i am much much happier.
no one can do this for you.
Do try, just do it.
get up and get to it.
Good Luck
