I'm right there with ya Kodank.....Same situation. My Dr. told me to start with walking. Go for a short walk everyday pretty soon your body will crave more excersise ie: longer walks or add a bike ride. For me its all about my boys I wanna keep up to them and its getting harder and harder to do.The other thing I did was cut junk food and beer almost completley out of my diet. Beer is the hardest I love that perfect golden liquid bliss LOL. Its like anything else the more you do it the better you get the more you like it. Keep it up man.

Thanks guys. Ya I think I'm gonna find someone. It'll help. Just picked up some things to help facilitate a routine. I find that once something becomes autonomous I can get into easier. I do need to switch up my diet. It's so terrible. Better sleep habits need to happen.

ok, here is my plan to get you into shape.

first... tell potroast to go fuck himself, I know you want to. ;)
once banned then you will no longer feel the need to post on RIU,
now every min you were going to be on riu, use that time to work out.. i bet in 4 months you will be all ripped.

imagine if fdd spent all the time he spends on RIU lifting weights...

Its all a matter of how bad you want to do something which mind you goes deep into the heart for the mind will attempt your weakness to arise with logic and reason.You basically need to look deep within and find the grit so to speak,get pissed off that your brain is working against your truest desires tell yurself to f$#ckoff! ya know.Just so u know im not telling you to f$#ckoff in third person or anything,,just so were clear on that.

I now what you mean, I have a Bowflex I bought 2 years ago and every time I walk by it I can hear it whispering " get over here you lazy fuck" so I moved it into the basement. Now it's yelling at me from the basement GET OVER HERE YOU LAZY FUCK so I moved it into the garage, I'm scared to go in there haven't cut the lawn in 2 months, left the mower in there. Left my wife in there to, wonder what she's been doing in there?

A good sign that you need to do something is if you have not seen your dick in a while, loss weight.

I was on the beach one day looking at the ladies and around 6 we went to the bar and I noticed a few ladies looking at me and giggling so went over and asked and one of them said I looked like a zebra with the sun burn I had. I went intop the can and sure enough where the rolls were I was white with red stripes, I put a shirt on and 1 year later lost 65 pounds, went from a 42 to a 34 and I can still get into a 35 to this day, happened 10 years ago. Now if I could only grow my hair back LOL

IF it's to be it's up to me.

working out actually releases endorphin the same feel good drugs in your brain the get release when you do drugs. YOU CAN GET ADDICTED TO WORKING OUT. no motivation required. you just have to start doing it to get hooked
When i trained every day for foot ball the days i didnt work out i felt like shit. almost like a hangover if i didnt work out.



Endorphins ("endogenous morphine") are endogenous opioid peptides that function as neurotransmitters.[1] They are produced by the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus in vertebrates during exercise

positive influence,
motivation for me comes from positive thinking, the right frame of mind,
running working out alone sucks i know i have tried and the push isnt the same.
the right music can also help but has to be lively and upbeat.
hope you find the right frame of mind that gives the boost you need.
Been there. I hate all things that require effort of any kind, LOL. However, I did manage to lose 30 poinds last summer and have kept it off.

What I discovered is that the old saying, "nothing succeeds ike success" is true. Once I lost the first five or six pounds I GOT enthusiastic to lose the rest. Same with working out---the first week sucks the Big Green Weenie. But, ONCE I struggle thru that first awful week and notice it isnt killing me quite as bad as it did a week ago, I start to GET motivated.

So....maybe try just forcing yourself thru the first week and SEEING some progress would keep you going.

Well, that and NOT smoking before you work out, LOL. Nothing can steal your motivation quicker than a joint in the morning.

Good luck

Lol I guess it affects people differently, I'm sitting here reading that last post while smoking a bowl before I go work out, it seems to keep my mind off being tired.

Really? That's harsh.

It's really not that hard people... Cut the dairy, cut the fried foods, walk around the block a few times a night.

Eat fruit, not ice cream.

Doesn't mean you can't ever splurge, but be aware of what you put in your mouth. If you do fast food all the time, find a subway. Cut the mayo and get a turkey on the 9 grain bread with avocado.

Smoke only in the evenings/nights after shit is done

At your gym, pick a treadmill where hot girls usually run. When its me and a few other hotties running by eachother, i always seem to have the energy to bust out those few extra miles without a break.
Seriously try it
