Hey /fit/
Essentially my life is fucking falling to pieces and I need to do something to turn my life around.
I've never been more motivated to start losing weight and going to the gym but I have no idea where to start or what to do when I get there
Can we get an advice thread going so I know what to expect, what equipment to start on, who to ask for help etc.
Pic related, kinda.
Get yourself a cup of coffee and read the sticky.
Are you fucking trolling me
>>>/sticky/
If you can't be bothered to read the sticky there's really no hope for you. The sticky isn't holy scripture but it will get you most of the way there. If you can't read it for 15 minutes you won't change your habits for the better.
Hi, I'm Anon, you might know me from such classics as Read The Fucking Sticky.

Hi I'm Troy Mcclure!
You may remember from such threads as; 'Is Pokemon Anti-Semitic' and '>Playing Banjo's in 2015'!
I'm here to tell you to read the sticky!
THE END
If you want to be hand-held through the stuff covered in the sticky you have at least imply that you're a girl, first.

Good shit man, I can tell your skin is just basically a glidesuit attached to your body but your determination is what's impressive

Thx friend. It looks like bat wings. My legs are downright ugly. I was morbidly obese for a very long time.
Squatted 1pl8 the other day tho. It's hard to keep form because my tendons didn't grow to move that way.

Very nice. You getting surgery to take the skin away?

Pry not. Wife doesn't care. She married me when I was fat. She prefers me this way.

Listen, whatever changes you are gonna make in your life you have to make sure that they are gonna be PERMANENT
PERMANENT.
That means that if you are doing a workout regime, changing your diet, etc. You have to say to yourself "can i do this day in, day out, for the rest of my life?".
Secondly, know that you have to build up to something. Check your ego. If you have never followed a discipline or schedule before don't think you can go full on hard on military style. Your willpower is a weak pussy and needs to be exercised before it can play in the field.
So if you want to change yourself you need to
1.) Identify the permanent changes you want to make
2.) work gradually toward getting them
3.) create a consistent schedule and stick to it.
And finally, keep getting on the horse.
A quote:
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education alone will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan press on has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
