Well, I can type correctly, I was just feeling a bit lazy. Which is also why I'm so fat. I need to lose at least 60 pounds, but for now I'm aiming for 30.

And also, I do run 3-5 times a week. It just gets so boring sometimes, even with the music, that I want to give it up. And being so out of shape/fat, I can't even run that fast or that long. Basically, I lack motivation... 'Cause even though I've lost 15 pounds so far, even THAT is not enough motivation for me.

.... Just run. Just do it. It's the best and the only advice you'll need as for your case.

Running will only get EASIER and EASIER!! TRUST ME!! At first it is fukcing hard, but as you loose weight, you will be lighter on your feet, and it will become MUCH MUCH easier. Your legs will strenthen, and your lungs will cope easier with the runs.

Cut down on the Carbs, eat none after lunch. You can eat a LITTLE chocolate a day, but keep off the junk.

Do this for a few months, that is all it takes, if you dont have motivation, use WILL POWER!!! IT is a VERY powerful source!! Once you do this, you will be happier than ever before. U will totally transform if you loose enough weight to get you down to "normal". Good luck, stick with it, and watch your life change. Dont be lazy just because you cant control yourself, your mind is your most powerful weapon!

Running is immensely boring. Try rollerblading instead - spend 100ish on a pair from eBay - get a size smaller than your shoe size. It gives you the same benefits as running while not jarring your muscles so much. Since you said you're overweight, this will be especially helpful. At my peak (since, I've been working too much to work out fanatically as I once did) I was skating 4 hours a day. Every day. Fat got shredded.
