I thank every one for taking part in this thread...its not easy revealing my heart for the world to see, but i need to make this...I am suppose to be something great in life...my purpose isnt to die and be a statistic...I am more than a conqueror, made to be victorious in battle not defeated...I just want to reach my potential and then surprise myself and go past that.
 
how do I break mental walls down

Good for you. Keep it cranking. Don't look at the numbers or the all the lbs you want to lose. Look at how you are evolving as a person and changing your life for the better. You know as well as I know that if you were back at 750 you would be cutting your life short. You are not losing just pounds bro, you are creating a whole new life for you and your loved ones.

Dieting down was the hardest thing I have ever done hands down. You will have the temptations and there are people or things that will constantly try to shit on your parade and take you off course. Stay focused and you will taste the sweet victory soon. You got to go through hell to get to heaven right?? Don't give up!!
 
word....true dat


if your going through hell keep on going...face that fire and walk right through it...you might get out before the devil even knows youre there!

feeling so very sick today....its almost lunch time and all i have in me is a protein shake.....i feel like throwing up out of my ass and mouth. Im just going to lay down :-(
 
Get a lot of Vitamin C and Water in your system ASAP

You need to be constantly drinking water to flush out whatever's got you feeling sick.
