The thing to adapt to with this information is goal maintainence, and improvement tracking.

I HATE exercise, PLUS the humilation aspect that got pushed into me growing up as a fat kid.

The thing that gives one good feelings for me, isn't the exercise, it's the improvement that gives/gave me pride.

Instead of group exercise, I started doing bouldering. Going up the difficulty levels, being able to literally get over obstacles made me feel proud of my achievements.

Try tracking progress. it could help give you pride and self esteem.
