Re: Newbie to "Exercise"...help

Hi Fine
Steve and Bigdaddy have a point as far as it goes The point is you are going to have to be honest with yourself. Remember we all have a problem with food I call mine and addiction. I ate when I was not hunger, I ate when I was bored any excuse would do. Its easier to lash out than it is reach out for help. I was embarrassed at Banks when I had to get the suit for my son's wedding, a size 50. I came home and took a shower and saw myself for the first time in years. Without blinders I was a mess. I'd ruined my knees, I itched all the time, I was out of breath with the slightest excursion and I had a bad attitude. I was always in the bathroom and I had no stamina sexually. I had people who cared about me, who loved me but I could not hear or see what I WAS DOING TO MYSELF. By extension I was not showing my family any respect in that I was not expressing my love for them by loving myself. As the saying goes god can raise the dead but you have to push yourself away from the table OK maybe I'm brash, too straight forward but I know what it is to change a lifestyle. You see I believe in stirring the pot, I still love to cook and now I can cook all through the house. Look at it this way you are going to pay a price for letting yourself go. You get to choose whether its going to buy you a better quality of life or an early grave.
