<human>: After lurking for so long and procrastinating I manned up and went for a jog and am making my first post on [Loseit](

I have always been the "fat" kid growing up and in school I am now 23 I weigh about 250 and i'm 5'8" and sick of looking in the mirror and hating what i see, I have been putting off jogging because I am very self conscious about my body and I know there will be those people that are just rude and will say rude things while I'm out.

But to my surprise on my first day out one and only one thing was said to me and it was by a guy on a street bike *(not trying to say guys that ride are dicks or anything lol)*. You could clearly tell I had been running with all the sweat and such, he pulls up to turn the corner as I'm about to cross the street flips up his visor and says **"I was there once man, if I can do it you sure in the hell can"** and then proceeded to fist bump me as he drove off I was absolutely speechless.

I don't think people realize what a few words can do for someone, this random stranger made my day a whole lot brighter and will motivate me for many many months to come! Also without that i feel as if I would still be lurking around in the shadows on here.

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: Awesome motorcyclist is awesome and don't let your thoughts about what people **might** say to you stop you from doing something to help yourself!
