Here's my story...
About a year and a half ago I decided that it was time for me to lose some weight. I am 30 years old, 5'8", and was 216 lbs. I was mostly fat, living on your variety of fast food, and got winded doing just about anything physical. Then, my middle son started wrestling and it was tough, to say the least keeping up with him and his training. I decided that I had to make a change. I was unhappy with myself. I changed what I ate, how I ate, and hit the gym. I began taking vitamins and natural supplements. Now, a year and a half later, I'm 161 lbs and feeling great.
I still eat great, still take natural supplements, but the exercise has kinda fallen to the wayside. I bike semi-regularly, but my motivation to workout further kinda blows right now. I have set a goal that I want to get down to 155 lbs and get a little more lean (my Body Fat % is somewhere around 14) and I know that it mostly lies in my belly, but even still I'm not getting my lazy butt up to do anything about it.
I've been trying to figure out why and what to do about it. Is this something that happens after you hit a certain point? I'm kinda pathetic in regards that I have no friends to work out with and I can't afford the gym anymore.
I'd love to hear from anyone that this has happened to and what you've done to overcome this.
