Being over 220 lb at 5'8'' is extremely painful (dont worry i lost a bunch again)

Especially compared to how I felt and performed at 150 lb and very athletic lifestyle.

I can't even begin to imagine how horrible being 300+ lb would feel. And I'm not talking pure muscles.

A lot of people get into pain spirals. Emotional and physical. And for whatever reason convince themselves that eating that extra 3 servings of highly processed chips is fine or it even gives them temporary relief, just like a drug hit. Because their happy and not thinking about their pain when distracted.

Couple that with wow. Or weed. And it's game over. Your own brain will dump addictive chemicals into along with whatever behaviors that are strong as any street drug.

Discipline is key and spirituality is a gateway to that. Setting up your environment is key. If there are no chips in easy reach and celery sticks and yogurt only ur a step ahead. Don't keep a fridge in your room or work area. Be Disciplined like a Bhuddist monk and only eat what is absolutely necessary to survive. And only in your eating spot. And only during specific times if you can help it.

Anyways. Yeah addiction. Obesity. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

Sometimes that cope tho while it trades decades for 5 years is better than suicide, I guess.

Ya, desire is one thing, considering the most effective method is an important other. You mentioned some helpful techniques

The same concept applies to someone who wants to be rich more than anything. If they start in a minimum wage job, it doesn’t matter how hard they work, they could work 60+ hours/week and they will never become rich. They need to work smarter AND harder. Not just harder

I think for the guy in the vid to say when he was younger he wanted to be thin more than anything in the world yet couldn’t get it, I would question how he attempted to evolve his methods. Cravings and relapses can be anticipated and planned for, methods can be improved
