The lack of work ethic in this count...Amen to that. The lack of work ethic in this country is quite frankly disgusting. All you can do is handle yourself though, and you're headed in the right direction. Just keep moving that way.Jim McCoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12524898692671838600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871893863478662903.post-67925306307747808952007-11-29T08:25:00.000-08:002007-11-29T08:25:00.000-08:00Great blog.

I completely agree with you, and often have to ask myself why am I not seeing results on certain things I want to..because I have to work harder! <BR/><BR/>Have you taken measurements? Thats another great way to track your progress. I try to do that because sometimes the scale can control me!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401806226106225236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871893863478662903.post-61351626229553156322007-11-28T10:57:00.000-08:002007-11-28T10:57:00.000-08:00Oh, I'm spamming you now.

These kinds of ideas need to be instilled in an individual when they are children, but unfortunately that isn't happening often enough nowadays.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12610611633437823965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871893863478662903.post-2805784526212250572007-11-27T16:38:00.000-08:002007-11-27T16:38:00.000-08:00And now Geoff finally agrees with his little broth...And now Geoff finally agrees with his little brother :) Although it's hard, it's very much so worth it. In this specific aspect, you can already see the improvement. Now if you stay with it, you'll continue to improve your health and your self-image, resulting in improvements in many other parts of your life. Don't let yourself be one of those slaves of the media. Be yourself and be happy. Everybody gets down some time or another, so don't feel guilty for that, but your personality shines through when you decide to man up. Seriously, you're doing great so far and I'm proud that you're sticking with it. I had to laugh at your rant though because a couple of years ago, you would've just been another one of those people. I hate your high IQ though because your freaking rant sounds like the beginning of an anthro or sociology thesis :P Ah, well. Talk to you soon.Brenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05120976672112865775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871893863478662903.post-41305073341821489042007-11-27T12:22:00.000-08:002007-11-27T12:22:00.000-08:00You're absolutely right - sometimes you just need ...You're absolutely right - sometimes you just need to let go of expectations, put your head down, and just barrel through with hard work and determination. In the long run, you'll be better for it.
