[QUOTE="WizarDru, post: 1765023, member: 151"] So you don't intend to work for a living, then? Because I've yet to meet a legal employer who pays you immediately for work you do. You're setting yourself up for failure. You didn't get overweight overnight, and you don't shed pounds any faster. You'll find your energy increases fairly quickly from regular exercise...and you don't need to exercise so heavily that you experience discomfort. The 'no pain, no gain' philosophy is something hardcore weightlifters ascribe to...those interested in simply improving their health don't have to. Simply taking a long walk EVERY DAY and reducing your food intake will do wonders. And here's a bulletin...when you get older, you're going to find that you're going to suffer further health problems if you don't correct those problems. As for dressing 'fake'...well, is your personal identity entirely defined by wearing a specific set of clothes? No one's saying to wear different clothes, necessarily...but if you wear the same shirt three days in a row, and wash it once a month, don't be suprised if people don't want to hang around you. Your choice of clothes can also broadcast things about you. If you always look like you just tossed something on that you found lying under your bed, you project an image and you make a statement about yourself. That's your choice: but I think it's more than a little unfair to claim that the world has a conspiracy against you, just because you don't like the realities of human interaction. Look at it this way: you don't want to be someone who you aren't...but right now, who you are is a fundementally unhappy person who's depressed, overweight, feels ostracized and alone. No one's saying to act falsely or not be yourself...but I think you need to consider that you need to change parts of your life, if you want to improve your overall situation. [/QUOTE]
