I hate self pity mate. If you recognise this you can change it. You are the loser sheep because you CHOOSE to be the loser sheep.

If you aren’t going to keep on a true ‘velocity inspired’ diet at least stop being a bitch and have a positive mental attitude.

As I said earlier, I do NOT like negative self talk. Really bad shit IMHO. I’m kinda like my dogs, if it is worth doing, do IT. If there are two burgers available, I’m all in, If the game is fun, I’m all in. People do Everything differently, doesn’t mean you are a _________, just doing it different. Honestly though, if you are losing weight and working out, you are ahead of most. We all have different goals. Keep Pushing, WD

You guys are right, enough of the negative bitch-ass talk. I will be more like esk221 at his job (pro wrestler) and lay some Smack Down on people and bitches.

Losers will notice that I am continuing with the diet. Did I say I will quit you bitches. NO!!! I did not say I will quit (just dirtying it up like Christina Aguilera’s pussy and asshole), so don’t be surprised ass-wipes.

Mate,

Just a thought, do you really need to be doing all of this to lose some weight given the level that you are?

Would it not just be easier to go for a run a couple of times a week, lift some weights and tighten up your diet a bit until you get down to a more reasonable level?

Do you really need to be one of the top supplement spenders on the site, have a detailed food log, track every step you take and post it all on the internet for feedback?

Are you sure the cure isn’t becoming worse than the disease?

Sometimes i think people get put off by thinking the whole process is much much harder than it is, especially at the level you are.

Analogy - When you start out playing golf, you don’t need tigers coach to get from a 36 handicap to being able to enjoy a round with your mates. You just go out there and muck around a bit until you get better

I dunno. Enjoy whatever it is you decide

I thought I wouldn’t, but I am REALLY enjoying the food log and step tracking. It gives me daily and easy goals each day for me to accomplish. As for being a top supplement spender, it is true that I spend some money on it, but it is shared with my brother, so I am actually using only a little over half.

I think I am doing what you are suggesting - cardio (V-Diet walks), weights, and a cleaner diet than before this diet started? Good luck with your physique goals and other endevours.

Huh?

I think you missed my…nevermind. Good luck OP.

Dude,

I am really fucking disappointed.

It isn’t your body that is failing, it is your mind. Do you really want a weak mind?

Were you going to do all this only to go back to the meals at McDonalds for lunch?

Man up! If not you are just like 99% of the population, if that is what you want that is your choice, but I don’t support it.

Thanks, but when I realize what posters like The Mighty Stu is going through http://www.T-Nation.com/free_online_forum/sports_body_training_performance_bodybuilding/thoughts_on_contest_calcarb_cycle and reading about his training history, http://www.T-Nation.com/free_online_forum/sports_body_training_performance_bodybuilding/mighty_stu_how_do_you_train I realize I am just doing the easiest part of dieting so far.

I am not even half way there (not even a quarter way maybe) but I am starting to really enjoy the journey, not just the destination.

Big improvement from first pictures.

Motivation is sky high thanks to reading The Mighty Stu’s thread http://www.T-Nation.com/free_online_forum/sports_body_training_performance_bodybuilding/thoughts_on_contest_calcarb_cycle (thank you Stu). For a lifetime natural novice like me (no one would actually mistake me for using AAS … lol) his tread continues to be eye opening.
