angle and devil on one shoulder
During the break, my friends and I were watching tv. One of the many shows we watch was about a man that was 650 pounds, but was now about 150 pounds. When he first started out, he said he started gaining weight because he was molested as a child. His ID, felt bad for himself, thus he started eating all of the time. He had nothing else to do, because he dropped out of school. He dropped out of school because the kids made fun of him, and he didn't listen to any other part of his brain. His ID wanted to be out of that situation and it would do anything to get that satisfaction. If his brain had listened to his ego, or even his super ego he would probably have not gotten to be that large. During his process of loosing all of the weight that he did, he still had these urgent urges to eat. His superego helped him with this. This was the moral part of him and this is what kept him driving for his goal. It basically told him that he would soon look really good if he kept up this good work. At times, when things got rough his ego slipped toward his ID. At one point, he gained 30 pounds. This was definitely a set back to him, but again it pushed him even more towards his final goal. The title of this TV show was 650 pound Virgin. Yes, he had not had sex, and wanted to wait until he got all of the weight off. After the weight was off, he began to go on a few dates. His ID, had the drive for sex, and it wasn't going to stop for anything to get it. He did not let that control him. He relied on his superego, which brought him to his sense, that it would soon happen, he would just have to wait and find the right girl. He stuck to what he believed, and it worked for him in the long run.
