How did the day go for everyone?
- Thread starter Chillen
- Start date
In my heart and soul, I know its "the correct mental attitude toward certain things in life that can make a difference", and having a healthy mind that is OPEN to receive, and THEN ACT UPON is key. The MIND is THE place to start in my opinion, and it can make or break you toward ones goal.
So, I have decided to try to do this everyday. If it helps ONE PERSON, then I have succeeded in my goal. I am out not to misinform no one but to help.
Through my own journey I have learned alot. I have had many (and still do) battles mentally, my goals are not necessarily applicable or agreable to others perceptions of my goals (if you see what I mean). Im not talking about persons on this forum, but everyday persons I see or interact with. I FLAT DO NOT ALLOW IT, it is NOT subject to their misinterpretations, BUT MY OWN. If you understand whaty I am saying. One HAS TO LEARN to DEAL with these everyday battles--properly. Learning YOURSELF--the strengths and weaknesses.....and a program to deal with BOTH, is in my opinion, essential. People at work for example, say I look skinny (I think im not) and make remarks, and these VERY PERSONS are overweight and are not walking the talk or trying to improve health, and thus it is not APPLICABLE to become an attribute in my mentality, and I dont allow it, and means nothing.
Persons whom are persistent in TRYING eventually succeed, bottom line.

Congrats on day 2 CCR-- now quit your whining. 
Each day will get a little easier-- the first 72 hours are the hardest.
You want a distraction? Go read my journal, look at the pics and put together a FBW I'm really just kidding there-- I'll be putting one together this weekend.
And Chillen-- Did you really wear a 36/38 pant at one time? I'm approaching 40 and have been in 34s for so long I just assumed that was it. I just keep reminding myself that it won't happen overnight.

Ha, I'm gonna moan all day if I want to, my problems are obviously far worse than anyone elses in the world
Today isn't so bad though, lots of fit tourist girls walking past my office window and only 90 minutes left of the day
This is NOT meant to insult anyone:
Today, I was in wally world (Walmart), and the guy next to me was eating one of those giant WHOPPERS (you know the 1300c ones, LOL), and slurping a DIET COKE (LOL!). He asked if I wanted a bite. I said no thank you (LOL). He then said, you look like you could use one of these (LOL). And, I thought he could do without one of those......... (and the diet coke wasnt doing a THING for him)......... Thought I would share that. (LOL)
There is a lesson in this, do you know what that is? Yes, it concerns, Wellness.

he actusally offered you a bite!!! eeegads!
I love to F with the public,,, most of them a pukes anyway!! and for the people who know me, they kinda have a respect, because I respect them.
i don;t have a whole pile of dumpy frumpy fat lazy friends. they are repelled by me, just as I am by them.
When it comes down to it,,, what somebody else thinks is not my business unless they say it out loud, and state it clearly!!! No headtrippin! Get the sweat on!!

I dont have any problems with anyone being overweight, either. I mean if there happy who they are, I dont think its subject to anyones interpretation of their own personal acceptance. My best friend, whom I have known for over 20 years has a humpty dumpty physical appearance (and we pick on each other mercilessly, LOL), and he is very happy--as is his wife.
Throughout the day, I like to analyze selected conversations and interactions for my own phycho-social and mental computations. And learn something without causing a brain explosion ( )
As I drew near what one could call an ideal weight for my height and frame size (saying on average), the more I got to look around at persons my age. Most (about 65%) are overweight, and concluded I am going to look small to them as most the others are overweight and have become accustomed to the opposite mistique.
Now, on to the wellness degree in my post earlier today (the wally world one, LOL)
First we have a large person eating about 1300c and a diet coke. Second, this same person, offered me a bite, and made inference I was skinny and underweight because he offered me a bite.
My FIRST look was WHY was this person drinking the diet coke and not a regular one, and eating a quad whopper? Is it because he LIKES Diet coke, or is it because he KNOWS he is overweight and is conscious of this?
With this in mind, we move to the inference he made. I think its fair he probably did feel I was skinny to him, but subconsciously, it is also possible he was inverting to his own feelings of what HE wanted and didnt even know this was happening. One train of thought.
With seeing his body language coupled with his words, and from the above comments, I believe he was more conscious about his weight than my own, and even if he was, its not subject to his interpretation. The interpretation, I do allow are persons from this forum........who share the same concerns and are trying to improve themselves and have educated themselves while still working on themselves, and this forms a common understanding of what it takes and this is healthy.
Dr. Chillen, is finished now.

Not so bad thanks, better than yesterday anyway.
I'm staying cautious though, I've been caught out at this stage before, my body stops the heavy craving and I get complacent; then I find myself outside lighting up!
So this time I know it's coming and I'm ready for it. I'm wearing a patch so smoking could make me very ill anyway

i agree.
its wierd how people who are unhealthy look at healthy people and criticize and laugh at us. at least for me
at school its really rare for a kid to bring a healthy lunch every day(me). some of my friends whom i am not close to mock me. its annoying at times.
what is even more annoying is when i see the school athletes(who are awesome and in great shape) eating terrible food. every day i see kids who are in much better shape than me eating crappy diets. pizza and burgers with chips for lunch. its unbelievable how they are such awesome athletes with terrible diets.
and i know i shouldnt, but i push myself to be better than other people around me. i compare myself to them in strength and since im weaker i work hard and eat much better so i can be better than them.
when really, i should just lift to become a better me.
anyways, today is going pretty good. the only goal i have for now is geting the left lat healed up. its feeling pretty good today. its just really hard knowing that i havent hit the weights in too long. every time i get an injury though, i realize how good i had it. i hate how i take everything for granted. like when i am at full health, lifting. it sucks to be injured. what i would give for a miraculous healing lol.

Proteinboy - Just bide your time, at your age genetics and hormones play such a large role in determining strength and athletic ability it's impossible to compare your results to theirs right now.
However things even out in the end, most of the kids from my year that I see now are either scawny and weak or fat bloaters. If you stick to what you're doing by the time your in your 20's you'll have left them trailing big time
Slowly slowly catchy monkey!
