Gotta get through this

[Groove]

Hello.

I joined this forum because I really need to start talking to some one. It’s funny when I originally planned on writing this I felt sad but today I am happy because I managed to find a cheaper car insurance quote. That means I don’t have to save up for 3 weeks before I can drive.

Well to start off with I have recently been working for about 4 months. Originally I started the job with a lot of gusto. The years before this had been difficult. Long story short, I use to be in really good shape, had a reasonable job and things were looking good. Then I moved back to my home town, started putting weight on and found it hard to find a job. Eventually though I got a job. When I got this job I lost weight and was in decent shape not as good as before when I was in another town but as good as just before I left my home town to go to the new town. Soon I lost this job apparently due to the recession and some other factors.

Then I totally got overweight. I wouldn’t say I am really obese but I am way over weight. When I started this job a few months ago I was jogging and exercising then I stopped after a few weeks. I managed to lose about 14-21lbs. I stopped training for a little while because I was not losing any weight. I hit a plateau and to remedy this I thought Id give my body some time to rest then get back into. I figured I would start losing weight because my body was rested and it would confuse the muscles after such a time of inactivity. But what happened was I put weight on and didn’t train. About a month ago I started training for about 2 or 3 weeks but after the first week I started losing focus. I wasted a lot of my membership by not going to the gym enough. Now I am really over weight and until today I was really depressed about wasting my time and being fat. I didn’t want to use the word fat originally because people assume I’m big like a power lifter. Now though to think about it I am fat actually. But I know though I have the capability to lose weight and get in the great shape I use to be in.

Another thing, just when I settled in work and got over some time being depressed and absolutely hating the job they moved me to another department in the same building. Most of the time I do hardly anything because this new department is nothing like the old department I use to work in. I mean it wasn’t exactly busy in the old department but I did have stuff to do each day and the time would go so much quicker. Working in the new department has kind of made me lazy. Now when ever there is a task that I am given by certain people I feel like these certain people who are not managers give me work they should be doing. All this brought the depression back but the good car insurance quote has made me feel so much better after such a lengthy time feeling sad.


Has anybody else felt lonely and just think that there life is going nowhere? All I seem to do now is eat junk food, watch TV and just go on the internet. I feel like I have no life or friends. I feel like I can’t make a new set of friends, start a clean slate and do stuff with my time rather then just pointlessly wasting time on the internet and TV. Right now I plan on paying this insurance at the end of the week and then start going to the gym. Any suggestions on how I can stop wasting my time in front of the TV?

Thanks. I know there is a lot to read but I just had to vent out.

I think you already know the answer to that question, you used to do it, and you are planning on joining a gym. Just turn off the TV and go out, jog, run, go for a walk. Join a club.

I just feel trapped right now. I think that I feel low and down because of the weight I have put on. It's almost as if the TV and internet are my friends. Stepping out my house I feel kind of strange and uncomfortable. Almost reclusive in a sense. I do go out but I normally take my car every where I go. I just need to break out of feeling scared to step out on my own. When I was younger I use to walk so far, places I wouldn’t walk to now. I really want to change my life and be happy.

I guess I was looking for people who have been through the same thing.

You're already identified the main factor, for you, in feeling bad about yourself - your weight. And you've already planning to do something about it - so that's TWO major hurdles already crossed. Now you just need to actually see the plan through into action. It won't be easy. You're out of practice and you're naturally worried about it but I think that, deep down, you feel that it's the right thing to do for you.

And there's no reason why you can't still watch tv and come online after the gym - perhaps as a reward? You could always come on here and brag about how much weight you've lifted or whatever you've done that particular day. I'm sure if you ask for encouragement, you'll get it.

You've done it before...you can do it again. *hugs*

Good luck and Take care.

Thanks for the support. I recentlly went to a bodybuiilding site and most people therewere so rude and basically idiots who thought they were hard lol. Why does there have to be mean people in the world.

To show off the nice people. After all, if everyone was nice, nice would be normal and so nobody would be nice. We need the jerks of the world so that there's an appropriate background to show up the nice people.

I think?
