[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 3038393, member: 35678"] Congrats man :D I actually had a similar problem last year; depression + the new GTA game + a guy who has never done much homework for school + no job = me, a stocky by nature, but 5'6 (now 7'!) bloating up to about 220 pounds. My personal "okay" weight is actually more like 175, so you get the idea. My arms and legs got flabby, I got a gut, and was pudgy all over. I was really deep into the depression at the time, and just rode with it. Sucked bad. Then, I finally decided last year in March to start doing sit-ups. Back a couple years before that, I could do about 60 no problem. I couldn't even do 10. But I kept at it, and am now at about 180-185, and feeling great. I am drinking less pop, less chips, less crap in general, and walking everywhere. I workl at a gas station down the street from me and its a 25 minute walk, adn I work about 3 or 4 shifts a week, so it's great :) It was really hard to realise that I had a problem (depression) and change it, and in the end it partially helped throw away a 2 year + relationship (although there were many mroe factors thatn just that), some friendships, and my health - for a while. The main moral is to preservere, and work at doing you best, and sticking to your guns. Congrats to those that have, and those that will :D [/QUOTE]
