Need help

[Nightfly]

I am in a serious long rut. I was not always fat but now am at like 315 at 6’4”. I can get briefly inspired by seeing what others have accomplished. I have been this way for a while now and forgot what it is like to go after a goal. I think part of me really doubts that I can get in shape. I want to be 260 but seem to be drowning. I have excuses I can have but I’m not going to do that. I know I am disgusted with myself but do not have that hunger I have in the past.

Use your fear as motivation. In my case, I'm afraid of insidious diseases such as cancer, heart attack, stroke, aneurysm, etc. When my motivation levels dip, I think about these fears. I do everything I could to prevent them from happening: upbeat attitude, proper nutrition, regular exercise, adequate sleep and recovery, etc. Before you know it, I'm back on my toes ready to crank out those reps again. Good luck!
