Its about time i started losing weight The Op
I'm male, I'm 20 years old (birthday was in July), 6'4 and i weight 350lbs. i wouldn't call my self a looser. I live at home but that's primarily by choice i make good money and in 2 months ill be making more then my dad. I work i IT and I'm very good at my job. I've moved up the chain quickly because of my hard work, knowledge and ability to work under extreme pressure.(for example a friend of mine who started a year before me is still in the same position and makes 10$ an hr less then me.) I don't dress like a slob, i buy nice close and where a tie to work everyday even though its not required because i feel that if you dress professional you act professional. I don't have much of a social life anymore mostly because I alienated all my friends bec i wanted to work hard and study after high school instead of smoke weed.(i did horrible in high school and back then i was a looser for sure.) plus the fact that i started making allot more money then all of them probably didn't help. basically i decided to grow up and if they couldn't understand that it was to bad so sad. here lies the root of my problem. I want to get out and make some new friends and maybe even get a girl. to do that i realize i will need to lose weight. I've been over weight my whole life and all of the friends perversely mentioned have been friends of mine sense elementary school so they where perfectly cool with it as that's how they always knew me. the realty of the matter is people, job interviewers, and business contacts (and women of course) all see me as a fat ass and not for who i really am. I feel that losing weight will not only help my social life but my career and health(duh). I'm tired of being the fat guy in the room.
>> The Op
I'm no stranger to hard work and late nights but i can't seem to get out a exercise. I always feel like its a such a waste of time. like i could be reading(IT books trying to finish my MCSE if anyone here knows what that means lol), practicing or working. when i do have extra time to get out and exercise and to exhausted from the stress of work.(yet another reason to lose weight i believe ill have a lot more energy.) i give 110% of my self to work and becoming better at what i do but i just don't seem to have any will power what so ever to get out a excise. I eat bad not horrible but bad mostly because I eat whatever is around work or use food as comfort when i had a stressful or shity day. does /fit/ have any advice for me on a real life exercise regiment and Diet? some thing for a guy as big as me and as busy(i work allot but not a insane amount.) Do you think moving out will motivate me more? I've played with this idea but im not sure if its just my imagination or if it would really help me to get away form my family that i don't really get along with we live together but don't even really talk much. we all pay the mortgage (so they are happy to keep m around for awhile as I'm paying rent.) got any foods that are quick to make, don't taste like shit and are healthy? how about any advice in general?
