I need some help guys......

<< < (5/5)

Viking:
Thanks Sahil, about time I sorted this out!

Viking:
And still no action from me!! This has been the storey of my last 10 years, I'll start it tomorrow.....blah blah......

Still in the same cycle of bad habits, excuses and guilt. I almost fear I'm afraid of the outcome, afraid of trying and failing, at least if you have a positive vision on the future there is something positive, maybe I'm afraid off trying and this positive future isn't there. Sick of waking up and feeling crap, feeling irritable and sluggish throughout the day then going to bed with the "starting tomorrow" positivity that slowly turns into the guilt. I owe it to my friends, family, myself and most importantly my wife to sort this out, to embrace what can only be a better future. Surely it's simple, eat less trash, move more leads to feeling better which leads to positive outcomes.

Man, I don't know where this has come from tonight, this place has always felt "safe" and reading back previous replies you are some great folks who have taken the time to pass on your advice and experiences. Thank you.

I don't want to be who I am anymore, only I can change that......

Viking, I can understand what you are going thru.  My weight is normal, but there are various aspects of my life that I would like to change.  The biggest one is being a very messy housekeeper (I live alone, so the good news is that I don't annoy anyone else with my mess; the bad news is that I am reluctant to invite people over).  I am trying to focus on changing things a small bit at a time.

So, and I speak from parallel experience, I would urge you not to dump on yourself.  You can't change what happened yesterday, but you can decide to make a different tomorrow.  There are various support groups for people trying to lose weight; see if something will work for you.  Meanwhile attack the problem in little pieces:  give up one type of junk food, make yourself exercise a little bit every day, keep track of what you are eating to see where you can cut down, ask yourself, before eat bite, whether you really WANT the weight that you are adding.  Most importantly, understand that you are going to screw up, forget to diet or exercise, make some bad food judgements.  It's called being human.  Don't blame yourself; determine that you will do something different next time.  I am rooting for you.
