Jockboy01, lifting weight is always my weakness. Thinking about it only, makes me ughhh..in unexcitement. The music always does a great deed when you need to NOT focus on what you are doing. Basically, if you are too focus on running, or lifting weights, or swimming... you will feel tired easily. When you listen to music and you have lost your focus, you will do more than you can expected without feeling tiring at all. Just for what you told me above on how you used to hate it but really enjoyed it now, I will start lifting weights again after the next few weeks of my now hectic schedules.

Harry1: Congratulation!!!! Twelve Pounds is a lot of weight to shed off the shoulders! Don't you feel much lighter now?(the other lightness..) Since you have lost that weight, don't you feel much more energetic? Don't you feel like you can take on the world? If you don't, you should start now. hahaha. This is a big war we are all fighting. In this war, we will all learn to get back our old self, the self we always have imagined to be. We will learn confidence, we will learn self acceptance, and we will learn the true meaning of success.
100 lbs is never too hard to lose. The hard part is to keep on going, but I am pretty sure you can do that. When you are tired and need the strength to go on, you can always come back here to meet with all of us. We will give you the strength and motivation to continue on.

I totally agree with AJ. We are suppose to worry about losing weight, but we should always do it in a healthy way. Remember, do not try to starve yourself. It will not help. Your body actually stores more fat when you starve yourself. The body had done enough of storing fat, so we should all make sure to eat healthy.
Eat fruits! Fruits is a great thing to snack on. My personal favorite is Grannysmith's green apples. Sour!! Yummm! I snack on that and oranges. Who said we can't snack when we are on a diet?
Take the sodas out of your life. Drink more water. Eat more fruits. hehehe, its kinda like flushing out your system. I feel great doing this because I can see the weightloss on my scale.
Put the scale to one side and promise to only weighs yourself once every week or 2 weeks. Don't let the weights bother you.

Tiger28, you can do it! Nothing super drastic is the right thinking. That is the perfect thinking for your long-term weight loss strategy. Eat less, smaller portions but more healthier food. Exercise frequent. Do not over exercise. Do it for fun, do it for enjoyment. I know, I know, exercise is never fun and not enjoyable but.. You can make it fun and enjoyable. There is nothing we cannot do, as long as we have the mind for it!
To be very honest with you, the last time I exercise was last sunday on the 13th, until now, I haven't done any exercising at all and have gain like 3 lbs already through eating. I am doing very bad and I need a spanking~! Its been 4 days of eating and being really lazy!
I get off track all the time but just remember, come back here to read other's stories and see other's progress.
For some reason, I am very lazy right now and do not want to do anything but.. I came here tonight and read replies from others, I realize that I too need to work on my exercising if I want to motivate others! Therefore tomorrow I will wake up a tad bit earlier and do a fast pace walking around my neighborhood for 15 minutes! It will make me feel much better and it will be very easy! Just walk a little faster than normal, burn all those sweats, then come back for a shower and go to work!
Like I told others, you do not need to run, start out doing some walking. Pretty soon those walking will turn to jogging and then turn to actually running.

Soccerfck, I live in a neighborhood filled up with streetlights and stoplights. I find it much easier if you stop and take a rest. Don't stop and sit down while you wait for the lights. Do something like stretching. Don't stop moving your feet at these lights, keep them moving. I actually likes these lights, because I can take a break for a bit.
If you run nonstop, you feel less tiring but you will feel terrible once you're all done. Do not try to rush yourself. Like I said above, stop for some stretching, or just jog standing at the same spot. If you really hate these lights then you can consider making a right turn. I do that, since I know my neighboorhood's streets already and if there is a street that I have to wait alot I will make a right turn and go for 2 blocks, and then take a break and wait for the light.
And do not worry about what other people are thinking of you standing there stretching or jogging and waiting for the light. I am pretty sure when I say this, most of them are just jeolous because you have the courage and the will to exercise while all of them do not. Whenever I drive and I see someone jogging on the streets, I find that as a motivation and something to scold myself for being lazy.
I guess I've found the motivation to lose some weight: some guys from my OWN town that make NUDE STRENCH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Imagine it, cute boys doing exercise NACKED, and you watching all!!!
