The Point Contest

I'm trying to lose weight, but whats the point in it? I just can't seem to get this and be fit. Motivation will come at some point I think. But my waist is doing the opposite of shrink. My doctor makes a good point in having a diet. But his large body tells me he has never tried it. I see my efforts being trivial and pointless. So what if I don't have a girl friend to kiss. You don't know me, maybe this Saturday I have a hot date. I don't, but that's due to you people pointing out my weight. I have so many people who pointed out this next flaw, that they're suppose to point up, so I should invest in a bra. This isn't an obstacle, its a mountain to climb, but I have to get up and try at some point in time. I am trying to get back to the point I was at years ago, even when you're not at point blank, my love handles still show. Yes I shop at the big and tall store, but don't make it your point to stare at me and take a tour. I wish they would see my point of view and be fair. My point is, I am who I am, and your opinion, I just don't care.
