Yes I agree there should be no excuses! There is no excuse for being overweight. I am finding it tough at 40 to lose weight but I have never thought of giving up. Of course I like exercise so it makes a wee tiny bit bit easier. Of ocurse your motivation really helps:-) I have to know - did the "broken dick" finally fill the jug and how? Me likes!

Sometimes you just have to grit your teeth and get back on track. That first day might be tough, but every day builds on the next. Do what you can. And when your body is ready. . . Train Hard! Yes, Sue – it can be a vicious cycle down the motivation tubes. Sometimes you just have to grit your teeth and get back on track. That first day might be tough, but every day builds on the next.

I have been dealing with a non-serious health issue recently, one that has left me leary of HIIT exertion and heavy lifting. So rather than just lighten up and do what I can, I have found myself sulking and not doing much. Thanks for the wake-up call. I'm stopping at the gym on my way home tonight and will do whatever I can, rinse/repeat tomorrow and the next, etc. And thanks to you and all vets and active duty military. Another interesting side note here - the more time away from training, the more my head gets in a bad place and my mood plummets, making a return to training even more difficult. It's a viscious cycle; better to do whatever you can than nothing. Sue Thanks Vic, very timely post for me personally.
