What is it? Obviously this is fitness related.... I'm just curious what's your biggest flaw/hold-back, that one thing that you love so much but you cant get rid off, even if you did you'd be so much better off in this department?


Me I'm just gonna speak frank here and hope my history is well guarded....but it's my wife. We've been on and off and she's been the biggest hindrance to my own personal goals I've ever encountered. I thought drinking and partying was bad back a few years ago before I got married....dam was I wrong. I could get better gains being drunk for every single workout I've ever done in my life.....

For the record I'm expecting answers like: beer, donuts...etc I'm just in a complicated situation

    Going off that your profile pic here and I'm not seeing much fat in those arms or else where....Ok I can't really see your arms but I'm smart enough to know that a stomach like that doesn't carry fat arms ;)

    Eating, drinking, partying...not enough sleep...focus on the immediate versus delayed gratification.

    Pizza. I love pizza. And chocolate. And chocolate pizza. Sigh. And I really don't actually like exercise. It is so exhausting

    But before that, I know where you are coming from with the spouse. I was my heaviest when I was married. Of course he always apologized with food and chocolate and I am an emotional eater. Bad combo.

    Exercise?

    That could lead to injury.

    Precisely!!!! Better just to stay on the safe side and watch other people get hurt

    Yeah marriage is tough for sure! My wife just has the WORST eating habits and they are totally forced down my throat daily... I'm talking fast food and soda :# It's my fault for giving into this but dam she wont quit eating like this and it's annoying! I'm lucky my metabolism is fast and all the damage it's done is turn me into a twig....hopefully the gains will come back easy.....god please come easy

    I can never say no to food I haven't cooked. So fast foods is a big hurdle for me. It's easier now though. I would honestly make my own pizza dough and pile on the toppings. I make the best calzones I've tasted anywhere. Still, they are bad and I can't have them regularly

    I can't relate even though we have the same problem...you see I hate selfies because I hate how everyone else looks ;)

    It'd be horrific if you had a selfie as your profile pic... Oh wait...

    Boy oh boy. I'm going to go eat some comfort McNuggets and a Barq's root beer and then not go to the gym.

    I know you were being funny or atleast half joking but this is really such a bad attitude to have and we're all so guilty of it too. I just got into an argument with my wife today about how even if you slip up or have some unhealthy habits like smoking, eating fast food...etc doesn't mean you have a death sentence and shouldn't go to the gym!

    Agreeing to go out to eat with other people. I wouldn't go if they weren't and I eat way over my calorie allowance.

    But, but, but, cico works for everybody!! Lol.

    Everyone knows that person who eats a half ton of calories, weight gain poweder and still struggles to gain.

    Not everyone is the same.

    My mind. I can do great on a fitness and nutrition level, do well at work, and smash goals left and right, but my mind is always there holding me back. About to go through a divorce, in which I think the other half has a lot to do in influencing that, so am really excited, not only for health, fitness, and nutrition gains, but mental as well.

    My schedule. I flip flop between nights and days, which is very draining. Also, I'm small so my room for error is low.
