I am new to this. I am 5'6 185 and im sick of my eating habits.. I like dont have any self control. I dont kno what to do. I really dont care about losing weight, but rather look cunning. Thats my goal! I need support and help!
 
Well..you are in the right place to start... I know i have found sooo much support here. I understand where you are coming from and I feel for you. We are all in the same situation and people here can really help encourage. I am 33 and I was recently at my heaviest... probably about 6 or 7 months ago I was at 275... I hated myself. I started to make small changes and now 7 months later I am down to 260 & Ive lost 12" off my body total. I am so proud of myself and even though I have soo far to go..I just take each day at a time. I have been exercising everyday for the last 3 months which is a huge record for me..and i crave it now. I have been loggin on to this website and doing a daily food diary and I count my calories...I am in so much more control and believe me I dont have self control..but Ive made great strides and I am finding Im putting my health and my desires above my food desires... I am finding real joy in my accomplishments instead of caring about a piece of food that Im going to feel guilty about forever.
I wish you all the luck..let us all know what we can do, we are here to help

~Good post there stoptheexcuses....welcome to our forum Fatandtiredofit! We are a supportive bunch and we are looking forward to getting to know you more! Whats helped me to loose is ...I've decided to look at this as a lifestyle change, not a diet. My attitude is, eating healthy will prevent me from getting bigger, and if I loose weight too, thats a bonus. Of course you will loose weight but with that attitude it makes it easier to get through the times when I hit a plateu.
 
What Do You Thinkl?

Do You Guys Really Believe In Diet Programs Or Are They Bogus. I Want To Look Good Going Back To School In August.. Thanks For Actually Responding To Me.. I've Never Had Support On My journeys To Lose Weight
 
I really truly believe w/ all my failures and success..and Lord knows ive had many...the only time ive every done well & its lasted was when I was exercising everyday & eating healthy & low cal. This is hard work but it really is the only way for long term loss I believe in my heart. I think Weight Watchers is about the best program out there if your going to get into one as they show you how to eat healthier & stay that way.
 
Weight Watchers has a wonderful support group as well as educate you for the long term habits that will keep the weight off.

Good luck to you!! I think your board name is great, that's exactly how I feel! FAT AND TIRED OF IT!!! :D

That was a great post Stoptheexcuses, motivated me to resist the snack machine at work this morning!!
 
i agree w/ K and MicheleK weight watchers is a great group if you need support and guidance w/ your weight loss. this time around im doing it the healthy way and eating right and exercising everyday. having a forum to come too helps when you have questions or ideas you need help with(its been a big part of my loosing weight this time around :) )
 
I actually did WW for a while and loved it...but my problem was getting to the meetings...had I had this forum at that time I might have been more successful then. I think also it comes down to your mind set..and it you are REALLY ready to sacrifice and work hard...when you are then you know it is the right time. This is the right time for me, i just know it
 
Eat Healthy, weight train to build lean muscle and cardio. If you allot around 5 to 7 hours a week to your health it will be a lifesytle. No eating is the worst thing you can do to look "good". People who are under nutritioused look terrible, more so than anyone with a few extra pounds on.

Diet is probably the hardest thing to get use to, it is for me.

I weight train 3 to 4 times a weeks and do cardio 3 times.
