    @brendog79 Good decision. Share your success and goals here. We're birds of the same feather flying together.

    This is excellent advice. Share here with your friend list since that's what this place is for. No need to open yourself up for unwanted comments in real life

    @brendog79 I second what others have said!!
    You have so much determination its inspiring! But to your friends and coworkers they seem to be getting jealous of your determination because they can't put that much effort in themselves!!

    You keep doing you because its amazing what you're achieving!!

    But definitely share on here, because it is nice to share your accomplishments, just got to find the right supportive people

    Don't give others the power to impact on how you think about yourself. Hold your head high and keep being you.

    I wasn't going to walk today because it had just been raining. My roommate said if I was to go for my walk i probably had about an hour before the rain started back up. I said I would probably take today off since I'd only taken one day off in two weeks. He let a little laugh out. I thought to myself I am gonna go for that walk and got a good 63 min. In before the rain started back. I felt good and was a little pissed at the same time. I thought a lot during my walk and thought about the story of Possible Pat who walked a 1.5 miles to walmart and back everyday for 1.5 years to buy every meal he ate and lost 330 lbs he started at 605 lbs. Now I'm not gonna do that but if I have any strength in me and if I want to eat today im gonna put in an hour walk everyday.

    You'll probably think this is weird, but the more I hear about things like this, the more I think about the state of mind of the person running their mouths.

    I personally don't believe people are just mean for no reason what-so-ever. For example, the people I know on social media who are the most angry, fervent, cutting, are the most unhappy people I know if real life. They have real tragedy and hardship in their lives. It was true of me too when I was at my most unhappy. People who flip you off in traffic, lose patience waiting in line at the pharmacy, or say something mean for seemingly no reason are hurting. It is more of an expression of their pain from other problems leaking into your life than any specific insult. It's mean and thoughtless and you just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    My heart goes out to people who do these things, because they clearly have some unknown pain in their lives.

    Haha oh my god yes! When anyone does that to me I call it "fuelling my hate-fire" and i do it to prove them wrong!
    Anger is a good motivator in the right circumstances.
