Staying Fat is Easy, Comfortable and Convenient

“Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.” - Brian Tracey

If I want to stay fat, all I gotta do is keep everything the same.  It’s simple really, my current habits have lead me to my current weight of 211 pounds.  I haven’t checked any of those stupid weight charts lately but I’m pretty sure I’m at least 30-40 pounds overweight.

I had a realization, it’s very comfortable for me to stay fat.  I really don’t have to make any changes.  I just keep doing it what I’ve always done:

  • I keep eating like a pig - that’s easy :)
  • I keep avoiding the gym or working out - come on, working out sucks, and sweating and running out of breath, who wants to do that everyday? NOT ME haha
  • Oh and I keep using my fatness as an excuse of why I can’t get some of the things I really want in life.  Instead of asking that hot girl out and risking rejection, I can just assume she’ll never go out with a fat guy like me, problem solved, risk a voided, damn being fat really is easy :)

A big part of any major change I’ve made in my life often involved really getting and staying out of my comfort zone.  In other words I really had to face some of my fears and do some embarrassing things.

I mean it kinda of makes sense doesn’t it?  If I keep doing the same things I’m doing right now, I’ll keep getting the same results.  Unless I shake up my reality, and start trying new things I’ll never lose the weight.

This is why I started this website.  I decided to really go public about my weight loss.  I’m sick of trying to do it on my own, and to be honest, I need all the support I can get.

So I will be using this site as a weight loss journal.  And I’m hoping I’ll attract others who are also trying to lose weight and we can do it together.

And no this wont be the typical weight loss blog, as a matter of fact I’m going to explore some really weird and messed up concepts.  Because everyone knows how to lose weight, you have to eat healthier and exercise.  I’ve known that for years.  As a matter of fact I’ve lose 50 pounds in the past and gained half the weight back.  So the problem isn’t really the HOW, it’s the WHY.

Why can’t I lose weight and keep it off?  What are the benefits of being fat?  There must be some even if they don’t make sense.
