Hey guys, so like many others I am an overweight, lazy so'n'so who really wants and most importantly needs a lifestyle change if I am to avoid health complications in later life. I'm currently 23, weighing in at 20 stones/130 kilos/280lbs (fat whichever way you look at it). I have tried to diet many times before. I began a gym routine and diet and it was all going swimmingly until I seem to give up after about 2 weeks and go back to my old ways.



I'm not sure why I do this, I feel amazing when i'm dieting and exercising, and I feel like complete sh*t when I am eating these disgusting, fatty, chronic heart disease causing foods, yet time and time again I go back to this slump, I have currently just finished 2 beef burgers loaded with cheese, now i'm sat thinking that I want to go McDonalds to get another burger "before I begin my new diet starting on the 1st Oct", which I have promised myself, like I have a billion times before, that this will be the last time I eat this crap without going back to my old ways. Yet I know in 3 weeks time I will probably be sat here in the same situation, with grease around my face, promising myself November 1st will be the new diet start date.


I guess I am just running out of ideas about the direction to take. I really do want to do this believe me, it plays on my mind 24 hours a day. I have bigger boobs than my mom, its 25 degrees C outside and I have to wear a hoody or a jumper because I am embarrassed about my breasts. It sucks. I've been like this since a kid and I really want to change man.


On the outside people don't know how I feel on the inside it plays on my mind 24/7.


I've been reading these forums for a while now and I had the courage to actually post how I feel because I feel if I don't do it now I never will and I guess the people on these forums have been through the same experience as I have and can help me with the right support, motivation and guidance.


Apologies for the long-winded post, I had to get this off my chest.


Speak soon guys.

Hey FBT, welcome!


One of the things that I hear a lot people say is "I"m gonna start my diet/exercise/healthy lifestyle on Monday/next week/after this birthday function...." The issue with that is that most of the time, it doesn't happen. If you're not ready to start today, then you're likely not ready to start, or it will end up getting put off. My suggestion would be to start today... it doesn't have to be a complete overhaul, but do something small today to kick off your new healthy lifestyle habits.


My next suggestion would be to read through this article - it's long but very informative: http://body-improvements.com/resources/eat/
