My Name is Martin and I WEIGH 150KG,AND ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. -
Its not fun being fat,sitting hurts,walking hurts,driving hurts,the stares from people really hurts.Not being able to join in any activity hurts,removing yourself from society and from those who love you..hurts.boarding a plane and you get looks saying " please keep walking.." hurts.Just going to dinner,meeting friends,play with your grandchildren,is not possible.Keeping yourself clean is a workout.But at the end of the day,I am the one who puts food in my mouth. Well I have drawn the line.I am at a stage that there is no other choice for me,I just have to lose weight now,or i'm afraid tomorrow might be too late.I am writing this because as part of my motivation,I am using this as my last post on facebook,and I wont post again until I lose 50kg,be able to play golf again,and my biggest motivation is that unless I lose 50kg, I will not see my Malta ever again.I leave you with this,Fat people are known as the life of the party,happy go lucky...take it from me,it is all a lie,Fat people are the unhappiest people on earth,and we just act that way to detract from the prison within...our body.

    (For those who think in pounds instead of kg. 110 pounds is the goal to lose. OP Current wt 330 pounds.)

    Welcome Martin!

    Congrats on committing to a healthier life going forward.

    I'm worried about you though as your post seems quite unhappy and I wonder if you have access to someone you can talk to in person about these feelings in detail.. maybe talking to a counselling person would be helpful.
    ..
    I say this in all honesty because losing 110 pounds is going to require long term effort and lifestyle changes and to do this you will need to love yourself..Or at least see/know that you are worth it. Investing this effort in yourself is worth it!

    MFP is a supportive place. Post often. ask questions. Lots of people are here for you!!! Lots of people Are in the same spot as you or have been there and can tell you what worked for them.

    You are worth it! You can do this. I wish you well
