Re: Getting Overweight from playing live poker and internet poker
[ QUOTE ]
3 years ago, i was in pretty decent shape. After the discovery of poker, I pretty much played poker 10 hours a day in the casinos and on the internet.
I want to continue playing poker but I find myself not working out and eating tons of junk food and drinking soda and beer.
Since coming home to spend the holidays with my parents in Oregon, I've developed what looks to be the early stages of Male Pectoral Disfunction....or "Man Boobs" as you guys would say.
I'm embarrassed to leave the house without heavy clothing on and it's even progressed to the point where I'm considering wearing something for support.
Women look at me like I'm homeless these days and my self esteem has sunk a new low.
I dont really want to work out, I want to devote all my time to playing poker.
Is there anything I can do? Can someone help me?

I don't get out much but have lost 23 pounds in the last 3 months on the South Beach Diet. Goal for 2006 is to lose 40 pounds.
Couple tips, if it's white and isn't classified as a vegetable or a protein, don't eat it. Second, drink diet sodas. The new Coke Zero is as good as it gets if you like Coke. Also the diet cherry sodas, pepsi and coke, are very good as are the two flavors of diet mountain dew. You'd be surprised how quickly you'll get used to drinking diet soda. Even the sugar free energy drinks aren't too bad.
