    I guess I'd tell myself three things:

    Put the fucking pizza down and get on the bike. It's going to take a lot of work later to fix what you're doing to yourself right now.

    Ask him out and stop worrying about what people will say about "teh gay".

    Keep doing what you do. Eventually all that messing around with video games and computers while slogging through tech support is going to lead to an awesome career. It gets better!

    Damnit, now I want to find a time machine and do this.

      The virtue of being an adult is getting to do any damn thing you want, as long as you're willing to accept the consequences. When I figured that out (at about 19), life got a lot easier. Being an adult means you don't have to apologize to anyone, or feel sorry for doing things your own way.

      Did you lose the weight or are you still struggling to put the pizza down? Not trying to be a dick, just saying, there is always today to change who you are.

        Oh no it's all good, and you're 100% correct. I'm down 60lbs now and am at that part where the last 20 are the hardest. On the other hand I can hold a plank position for 1:30 and am doing my first 5k next week. Feels good, man. :) I guess the hard part now is trying to get that last 20 and keep it all off.

          I just started 6 days ago. I need to lose 84lb. I haven't had a chance to weigh myself yet today but as of yesterday i was down 13 already. Like you said, wish I had formed better habits. But I've finally started a real diet. The time will go by either way. And I'll be a lot happier in a few months.

          Your name either suggests that Master Yoda needs to be reduced or restricted in some way, which I find heresy of the greatest caliber... or it means you are a foam Yoda that is shot out of a brightly colored plastic gun and then lost forever in a subspace pocket under the couch, which I find amusing.

          Either way, congrats on the physical fitness. Something I'm fighting as well. Coke is the bane of my life... water, y u no taste better :(

            Thanks! I think cutting soda and booze from my diet was the hardest part, but it's almost scary how the weight flies off after you do it. Keep it up! You got this. :)
