no one on this board really gives a shit if you lose weight or if you die of a heart attack at 19 and have to be lifted out of your house by a crane.

If you really want to lose weight, then stop playing the "yes, but" game and get up off your ass and take responsibility for your life.

A point well (if brutally) made. We can give you advice, we can support you, but we can't take your weight off you. We can be here for you, but we don't know you from Adam and it's no skin off our noses if you continue to bloat. We could read "Fat boy exploded" in the paper and not know it was you. So now it's on you to put up or shut up. I look forward to seeing your 10lb loss post. I wish you well.
