Shit, I have to beat them off with a stick already and I'm a fat freak. Imagine the situation if I actually dropped my excess pounds. All hell would break loose.
... stop fucking laughing.
But yeah, I'm more or less with idol. There was a time when I managed to do that. I got down to about 195 and kept it that way for a year and a half or so, was doing great. Then my dad died, I lost all willpower to do anything active at all, and it's never come back. I'm now married to a wonderful woman who, bless her heart, can't work, leaving me the sole breadwinner in a land where two working family members generally struggle to make ends meet, and she's got a condition that makes life really difficult sometimes, so I'm stressed out of my mind all the time and stuck at work where I don't have much in the way of options. I should be smart and try to work it all out physically, but it's really hard when you do as much crap as I do. I'm obsessed with trying to fit everything in, and exercise is pretty much at the bottom. I do at least walk home from the subway every day now, but it isn't quite often enough to make much difference without supplementing it somehow.
Anyway... more power to you. That's awesome. Maybe you'll inspire the rest of us somehow.
