Girgy don't give up, giving up.

I am not gonna preach at you, as I have been in your position for many years, I know how hard it is - but I can tell you it is possible.  I can't lie to you, it is hard and takes some sacrifice but on Jan 3rd I changed my lifestyle to a huge degree and have lost 4 st since, 5 inches off my waist and can walk from my car to the office without panting when I get there.

I have a long way to go and some days it is really hard, and I am not losing at anywhere near the rate I was, but I am still losing.  The details in the last couple of pages are about spot on for what I have done - simple diet, more exercise (not loads and less then you are doing now tbh), and I have just avoided takeaways and drink.

I can't believe Walkers have not gone bust, or KFC and Coca-Cola issued a profit warning due to the loss of my custom but I knew and have always known that I had to turn my back on these things if I wanted to make 40. 

Laz's death, Longy posting a before and after diet pictures, Red_Dogs daily weigh ins and the size of a T-Shirt I was given on a stag weekend all stunned me and inspired me to diet to a degree.  However at the end of the day I had to want to do it for myself, to improve my quality and hopefully longevity of my life - the people posting on this thread have your best interests at heart they are not taking the piss (well maybe Soviet  ) they are trying to help, and I can tell you the advice does work.

I can also tell you that I feel like a different person, to a degree I cannot explain.  I have a lust for life I had lost, and I didn't even know I had lost it.  I can't say I enjoy my diet, but I do get a kick out of it now in a sadistic way so its not all bad.

Good luck, keep trying, it is possible.

Think you are mixing me up with someone else, but great post anyway.

I have actually lost over a stone in the last couple of months myself though!
