LOL!!!!!!!!! is that my name.. I guess so huh.. im pretty much incognito here. I don't want someone googling my usual user names. This is personal stuffs goin on up in here :) . One day I shall reveal myself.. Lord help me reach my goal! :ack2:
 
i'm definitely the biggest person at my gym...oh let me rephrase, i'm the ONLY obese person at my gym...makes me wonder where all the big people are? Anyway, since i'm studying far from home, i couldn't get a support buddy to go to the gym with so i had to start the daunting task on my own. Day 1 was the toughest just walking in to the gym was not easy, it was such a mental struggle. But now it's week 3 and its not bad at all. I look like a blimp on the treadmill and aerobics classes and feel ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! i'm glad about that. The trick for me was to join a gym where i knew i'd bump into absolutely no one i knew, otherwise i definitely would have been too self concious and given up. Oh, plus i switch up the music on my ipod, so when at the gym its just me and my music...and the rest of the world becomes a blur.

You may have heard of the Acai berry as a way to lose weight. It is one of the most studied and also most favored natural methods to lose weight in a safe and healthy manner but the truth is that the Acai berry health benefits extend to so much more than just losing a few pounds.

Heya dude, just found your diary. Good on you for making the change and doing so well! Excellent work!

And on that note I would like to also give props to Steve for being very diplomatic in pointing out the dietry changes at the beginning of your diary in an excellent way (btw listen to him hes uber smart! and really knows his stuff!).

Keep up the good work, i cant wait to see before and after photos when you are done :)
 
Good for you man!

thanks man....i havent been to the gym since thursday and i ate wrong yesterday....my trainer pretty much told me he was sick of me txting him all the time telling him i messed up.....i told him i was sorry and i thought he was there for me when i mess up to help me and see me through it, i told him not to worry i wouldnt be txting him anymore....he hasnt even shown up at the gym to work out with me so as much as it hurts i am pretty sure we are going our own ways....then when i showed him steves post the only thing they could come up with was...well this works and f this andf that i pointed out to him that he didnt make since he only sounded ignorant because he couldnt back up his theory....any way guys looks like i am in this alone now....i hate being alone, its when i fail because there is no one to believe in me
 
Personally I'd view this as a growing pain.

You shed someone who wasn't going to truly help you in the long run. And I think you need to do this on your own. Own up to your past and future responsibilities to get to where you want to be.

Relying on others almost inevitably sets yourself up for failure. People are not dependable and when they start acting undependable, and your emotions and progress rely on their dependence, you trip and fall.

That's why it's better to structure your mind and program solely on you and your ability. If things aren't working, you only have one factor that you need to worry about fixing, and that's you.

And in reality, you're not alone. You have a fantastic support system here that you can utilize for learning and support.

My first suggestion to you is to ask yourself why you want what you want.

You might get something from reading .

I'd also work on educating yourself on caloric needs, which I discussed in detail a while back in this thread.
 
thanks steve...i dont wanna give up...this just hurts really bad, i feel like everything i had was ripped out from me....i never wanted to lay down and not wake up so bad....i feel so defeated.....i will continue its just gunna be so very hard, i do need to push through this i just need massive help
 
Is it logical that b/c your 'trainer' decided to bail out on you that you should even consider giving up?

Were you doing this for him?

Or were you doing this for you?

If it's the latter, why?
 
i want to do this for me....i want to do it so i can live a long happy life with my wife and raise beautiful kids and enjoy life
 
Exactly.

Now man up and realize that that's something you and only you can make happen.

Your trainer was 'guiding' you and from my perspective, doing a terrible job with it.

Now, if he was your sole motivation for following through with stick to calories and getting to the gym... understandably there's going to be a blow. But you need to replace that motivation with internal stuff. Stuff that belongs to you and you only.

I AM going to stick to a caloric intake that leads to consistent, long lasting weight loss because I DO deserve it and my woman and future children DO deserve to have me around for as long as possible.

You deserve this.

Your family deserves this.

Not only is it deserved, but anything less shouldn't be tolerated. I'm not saying you need to go nazi-like and be stupidly rigid. I'm saying you need to get your mind around the concept of this being very doable, the ownership and responsibility rests with you, and there are very logical, powerful reasons why you should want to adhere to the 'plan' on a consistent basis.

Is there any reason you think this will be impossible?

Any reason why you think you'll fail?

And figure out the reasons not only why you want this, but also reasons why you don't want to flounder and stall.

Did you read that blog post I typed?
 
hey disciple,
don't let the fact that your now on your own get to you, at the end of the day, all the hard work you've done was all done by YOURSELF and no one else...don't worry you'll be okay. i know i mentioned before, but at 146kgs i'm the biggest at my gym and i never let it get to me one bit, not anymore. the only difficult part for me right now, since i'm doing this on my own is the diet aspect, i've been going strong for 2months, but this past week have sortof of fallen diet-wise (and very dissapointed in myself for it), but i'm slowly getting back up. what we need to remember is if we fall, we get back up and try again.
