Hello, my name is Luke, I am 18, and have been somewhat overweight for a long time. I am 5'11, and 220 pounds. 5th grade is when I started to gain, I was a tad chubby, nothing too bad. Around 8th grade and Freshman to Sophomore year, I noticed I was pretty big and out of shape. My Junior year, I took weight training with one of those "Legendary" coaches that will go down in history, I will definitely remember him down the road. I gained six pounds of pure muscle during a 5 month semester of weight training, and I didn't eat right either, which is why I didn't lose weight. I went through hell and more in that class, and I was considerably fit.
But now, I recently graduated high school, and I'm supposed to be happy I'm out of school, quit my job at McDonald's, which I worked from February to late June. (This added to my weight gain as well, even though it was a short lived job.) So now I have all this free time, and I start college a little under two months from now. Which is, I think, ample time to begin a good work out habit.
I've pretty much been overweight for about 6-7 years. Now that I've wised up and realized my current condition (I have really high cholesterol, getting close to the danger zone), I have to go far out of my comfort zone to lose weight. The problem is, I'm too lazy, and undetermined to start again. I did a work out once, but at 2 am (That's when I am actually awake) and it felt good, but I didn't feel that "fire" or burning sensation to start working out again.
Whenever I wake up in the morning, about 9 am or 10 (I consider this early), I feel pretty weak, and always have a minor headache. I really, really want to lose weight, but I am confused as to what to do to get myself determined. I also live in Arizona, I made it bold to emphasize where I live, because currently it's 100+ degrees Fahrenheit outside, and I can barely step outside without already sweating.
I don't want to keep going, I know I can make paragraphs and paragraphs, so I'll cut it short here, maybe make a new thread elsewhere.
Thank you if you actually read this, it's pretty hard to get all of my problems and issues out in the open.
