    ...we focus on tweaking our nutrition and exercise routines, but often there are more abstract things that need to change as well. This does not make them any less important.


    We so often ignore the mental/emotional aspect.

    There is a difference between a reason and an excuse, but the line between the 2 is very blurry and constantly changing.

    my friend saw a therapist about this. they said he kept himself "fat" to keep himself faithful. When he was in shape, girls would hit on him all the time and he cheated on every girlfriend.
    He said staying less attractive keeps him honest with his fidelity.

    it's sort of how some molestation victims do it so that guys aren't attracted to them.

    Your right I am missing her point and I'm sorry for that. But in 2010 I suffered a bad accident that took away a lot of life's choices for me. It makes me want to cry when I hear someone say these things. I would give anything to be able to exercise the way normal people can. When I hear someone just wanting to throw their life away, well it just breaks my heart. I want good things for everyone on this site and I know losing weight it a struggle. I am right there with you struggling to regain some of the mobility that being overweight has taken from me.

    My progress will be slower because my exercise is so limited but that doesn't mean I am going to stop trying because it easy. I am just eating as healthy as I can afford to. I think that kind of talk by people is destructive for those of us who are trying as hard as we can to lose weight.

    I am the first one to say you should be happy with who you are but there is always room for improvement.

    I was in your shoes in 2008...........it has taken 5 years to get my life back and now the weight is finally coming off
