Sometimes its hard to stay positive...

[NewbieChris]

I having a frustrating time with my workouts and body development right now. What compounds it an makes it even worse is that I am then mentally upset about it and that comes back and bites me in the ass. I eat like crap about once every two weeks now. I mean, real crap. Snack foods and shit like that. Its been going on for about a month now and I just can't seem to stop myself. That makes me even more angry, I feel like I have lost my self restraint with this as well.

And I hate my job.

The passion and drive needs to come from within.

If you don't got it.. you don't got it. Just accept that you are a normal basic type person that doesn't have what it takes and move on...


Or you can stop acting like a fucking bitch, get some heart and be something more then average.

You choose.

And I dont want to hear a bunch of bullshit like.. "I just can't seem to stop myself." That's something a loser says. Are you a loser chris?

and further more just do your deal . in my case my work out regime has allowed me to be just to be a bit faster and bit stronger than the next person on the food chain..so dont lose that edge.:)

B is right on the money. If you really want something, make it happen. To some people, shit happens. To others, they make shit happen. Which do you prefer to be? Use your ambition Chris.

[Konitz]

Do what I am gonna do in regards to the job part (I hate my job as well); I am going to drive around to every major business in my surrounding area and drop off resumes. See if anyone is hiring so on and so on. You gotta take action if you wanna change stuff.

[Bouncer]

so what do you have to say for yourself chris?

just gonna hide your head in the sand and ignore everyone?

very well stated and true

[decadecadeca]

Bouncer is spot on.

People tell me all the time..."I wish I had your discipline", then they give a million excuses why they stop trying.

Same old shit, they just plain don't have the heart.

It's going to be tough, it's gonna suck at times, and it will test you.

But the best part is it's all up to you, it isn't a team sport. Win or lose you only have yourself to blame.

So true. The only defeat is self-defeat

[NewbieChris]

I don't know what to say, to be 100% honest.

I was not saying that it was someones fault other than mine Deca. I just don't know where my discipline and dedication of the last 20 months went.

I feel like crap and the emotional toll it is taking on me is driving me insane. I honestly think I am depressed.

Wasn't looking for, or expecting for that matter, a big gay hug from anyone here. Just wanted to vent.

[decadecadeca]

Depression can be a seperate issue.

If the depression is coming solely from the fact you've allowed yourself to fall off track then it's something you can control. The tough times are when you find what you're really made of.

However if you have other issues feeding the depression you should see a professional.

No shame in that.

What is stopping you from just going back to your diet and training like you were?

I honestly don't know. I am never happy anymore though; I hate my job. It makes me feel like a failure. My lifting has sucked lately too and I am seeing no results so I get very frustrated there too. I honestly don't know what to do because I feel really down on myself right now. Not like, go kill urself down, but more like...what the hell is wrong with me? What am I doing wrong? Other than having that attitude.

This job at the Y was supposed to open up so many opportunities for me, but its just suffocating me.

get a new job. start applying everywhere and anywhere. introduce yourself to managers/supervisors often. i've never known anyone that worked at the Y and was happy.

bottom line, you to smart to be working at a fucken Y.

its a nice place and its a nice thing you are doing but you dont belong there.

you need to go some place where you are making money and can feel good about it. then you can train without having all that shit on your mind. who wants to train at a place that you are at all fucken day.
