Hello WLF! Nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself, I am 36, male, 6'2, 265 lbs.
I've been trying to lose weight for 20 years and all I ever seem to do is gain weight instead! Lets face it, junk food is so delicious. They say "fit feels better than food tastes." Well, I find it the opposite! For me "food tastes better than fit feels." I mean fit is pretty nice, but junk food is spectacular, and thats the problem. Plus, getting fit takes months, but I can have junk food RIGHT NOW! Now I'm headed toward diabetes, heart disease, stroke, heart attack, and many more health problems. I think those will feel worse than how being without junk food feels. Yet, I cannot seem to stop eating junk! So I've decided to join this forum. Although ultimately this is a fight we must all face on our own, its helpful to have a community for support and to be held accountable.
Enough is enough! I am not going to just stand by and allow myself to eat myself to death. I will not look back at my life and see what big failure I was. No, I'm going to fight for my life! The battlefield is the mind, the enemies are cravings and laziness, one tempts you to eat junk while the other tempts you to skip exercise. I am not going to end up in a hospital bed struggling for my life against strokes or heart attacks or diabetes or any of that! I still have a chance to turn things around, and so I shall.
