I've found that it is not hard to drop weight. The big problem is discipline.
I've been deployed to the middle east for almost 3 months now, and the weather where I am at is very comparable to the weather where I am from [a little more heat, a little less humidity, but overall it puts the same drain on me].
Three months of dieting, taking thermogenic pills and exercising regularly [not even hitting cardio hard - just lifting weights and doing crunches everyday, and cardio a couple of times a week] and I am doing and looking so much better. I arrived at 196.4 lbs. I am now 161 lbs, and still dropping.
Some people say that they don't have enough time. To them, I say "bullshit" because I've been working 12 hours a day, sometimes longer, EVERY day since I've been here. That doesn't necessarily mean that I am working, doing physical labor - it means that I am at work and unable to go to the gym during those hours, so those 12 hours are not "working me out" any harder, or promoting weight loss. There are no days off here, not even for religious holidays.
So why is it that fatasses who work 9-5 magically "don't have enough time" to get to the gym for 30-90 minutes per day?
