in Introduce Yourself
I can't face reading it sober so i'll be honest again.
Last time I got in shape I posted my transition on reddit and half a million people kissed my *kitten* in one day. That was all well and good but it made it harder to admit to being fat again now. feel confident after 20 days of eating clean that I can stick to it now. x

    You'll be alright. One thing that's important--dont compare your self to anyone-- not even your thin self. Instead, keep your chin up and compare yourself only in terms of what you did yesterday, today, and how much better you'll be tommorow. Live in the present, constanly moving forward. :)

    You did it once, you can do it again!

    Its scary how you don't notice the weight going on. One day you look in the mirror and realise you are heavy again.

    Do you plan on "eating clean" every single day from now until you die? If you don't you'd be much better off adopting a way of eating that allows you to eat foods you enjoy instead of "eating clean" as a means to an end and then gaining weight again...

    This is exactly how I feel, I lost weight back in 2009, that five years seems to make it so much harder to lose it again too. I will get there though, and I'm sure you will too :drinker:

    I agree with this. Completely. And it's not because of the hat.

    I love the hat, too. I just didn't want him to think this was why I was agreeing with him. :laugh:

    I have been eating clean and once I'm in to the routine I find it easy. I have always been all or nothing. I have gained and lost weight about five times in my life. Once I start looking good again and start dating pretty girls again I seem to be unable to care about my caloric intake. This is why I get fat every two years and have to go on a five month diet to look good again.
