Dude, I struggle with the same issues (in fact, we even pretty much line up in the height and weight category).

I clearly don't have a solution. Part of me wants to "change it all this summer" and work out like a madman and lose weight, but the other parts knows that I will still give a huge fuck what people think of me. So I don't know.

So long as I maintain forward motion, and am always improving in some way, I feel good about myself, and these good feelings make it easier to accomplish more, until ultimately it becomes self-sustaining and I feel good about myself all the time.

I approve. Simple, but it works. Set goals, accomplish them feell good, and even more able to accomplish new goals, move on.

I think I've found it in me to finally start doing it again..mainly for that feeling you get right after you finish an intense cardio/weight training session. I know what to do as far as training goes, but what should I be putting into my body?

Really basically healthy unprocessed whole foods @ around 500 calories under your daily maintenance requirement with one free day per week that is higher than your maintenance requirement.

But I seriously recommend checking this guy out Fat Loss Secrets - Fat Burning Diet - Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle it's a small amount to pay for a lot of info. And don't worry about signing up for the free ecourse if you want I can give you the link to the last page that has links to every other page.

I've thought about the body type I'd like to achieve, and I'm thinking I'd try to achieve a Mark Tremonti-like build. How I'd achieve it I have no idea If anyone could help It'd be greatly appreciated. Just in case you didn't know what he looks like..

I used to live my life like a sappy sack of shit, "woe is me", and all that zazz. It was until 6 months ago when my dad had a rather direct intervention with me, and said "Don't get sad, Get Angry. Don't fuck the world, fuck them"

Now I don't live my life angrily, not like a mean person, but when something gets me down, I put that energy of sadness into anger, and take positive action, and I've been a lot happier the past 6 months.

I'm having the same problems as you dude. Not due to being overweight or anything - but I look much younger than my age (19, turning 20 this year). It sucks, but what can one do but trying to make the best out of it regardless?
