[QUOTE="Luke Stranahan, post: 1095942, member: 11203"] I lost 80 pounds, and have since put 40 back, but at least I ran a half marathon yesterday. You need, simply, exercise and discipline. Get a treadmill, or get the use of one. Start extremely small, like walk 1/4 mile, then run 1/4 mile, then walk 1/4 mile. Get the heart rate up. Do this every damn day. Not much, but every day. Go a little further, or a little faster, every day. After a few months, you'll be burning over 1k calories doing 6 miles on a treadmill. Eating. Look at every thing you eat. Eat healthy. Keep only healthy things at home. Eat less. This is an every minute of the day discipline thing. Weight tracking. Get a dry erase board and a marker. Every morning, get up, pee, get on the scale, and write your weight down with the day. Every day you weigh less than the day before is you winning. You can lose a pound a day if you try. Diet change, the treadmill, and tracking weight WILL show immediate results. I went on my diet 4 years ago. My board still says, in the corner, 7/18 300 lbs. I won't erase that one, although I have filled and erased the board many times since then. It said 257 this morning. My lowest was 218, I think. I stopped running, and starting eating more. It is time to exert your will on part of the world. Stand up, adjust your balls, and get to work. [/QUOTE]
