Eat healthy and stay committed to taking care of your body.
All areas of your life will improve if you do this.
It is hard work at first and requires self discipline, but it becomes easier and enjoyable after a few months.
Be committed and disciplined.
You will never change unless you are committed to doing what it takes to change.
Enjoy the journey. Do not think that a particular outcome will make you happy.
You need to learn how to be at peace with yourself and others now.
It's all about accepting reality and changing what you can  |
Thanks allforgood. I've actually been doing a lot of exercise in the past year or so. I've lost about 95lbs and gone from being obese to downright skinny, and I'm now in pretty good shape, I look good and feel great physically. I do an hour on the treadmill every day and also get in long city walks and mountain climbs when I can. It also helps to inform my emotional state of mind and keeps me out of the worst of the depressions, but it doesn't dig me out of the hole entirely, far from it.
