You know I'm not going to do any of this **** right...
1. I don't have friends, and there's nowhere I can go to make them. I'm not going to bars or clubs, and the people I work with have their own circles/aren't interested in doing anything with me. They probably just "tolerate me".
2. You know nothing makes me happy.. lol.
3. No. I'm not joining any clubs. I actually looked and couldn't find anything in this area anyway.
4. I look ridiculous when I smile. I have to force it because I have nothing to smile about.
5. Nope. You know I hate bars & clubs.
6. Already do this.
7. Nowhere to go. I have a lot of back/hip problems anyway that pretty much preclude going out and walking for any kind of significant distance (courtesy of my time in the Army). Being fat only exacerbates it.

Stop being an idiot. I moved. I have no friends in my area that go out. I frequent a local bar, and I go by myself all the time. Wednesday, Friday, Saturday. Talk to random people, the bartenders, whatever. Don't go trying to pick up. I go just to get out of the house and socialize. Turns out I'm now friends with the bartender (Who I ****ed on friday), two other bartenders, the line cook and I met some guy who;s 40 and a orchestra composer/conductor and is dope as ****.
I didn't do it by sitting at home jacking off with my own tears. Do I look like a retard half the time sitting at the bar alone drinking a glass of red. Sure. But you know what? Every one of those people who I've met were doing similar, or even complimented my confidence in going out by myself without worrying and just doing me.
Why don't you go out with the intention of just doing your thing, without expectation or worry and just enjoy exploring the world. I go to this place for dinner and a few drinks, by myself, because I want to. End of story. Anyone asks, "Because in this moment, this where I wanted and chose to be". You don't have to explain yourself to anyone so stop worrying about looking a certain way.

Also I should add, that no I wasn't doing the things I do all the time. Took a while to get there, to get the confidence to or to feel liek I could. SOmetimes you have do something before you know you can. And thats why alot of you won't.
I've been in the gym for four years. I haven't made a single noticable gain. I have an average body because I never took the time to eat properly, or count calories or really maximize my efforts. That's ON me. Last year I dated a girl that was heavy into partying. I lost everything. Maxed out my credit cards and student line on drugs. Lived on frozen pizzas, coffee and peanut butter sandwiches. Was down to 125 Lbs. No muscle mass. Sunken cheeks, sullen eyes. Parents knew I had a problem and started asking questions. Friends separated from me. Lost everything.
Yet less than a year later, I chose to get my **** together. Quit the girl. Quit the drugs. Started counting calories. Got a proper job. Now I'm 180 lbs, dreamer bulked a little bit too much but whatever. Finished school etc.
Like I said before. Lottery tickets. I made positive changes to get my name in the hat more often than I did before. And guess what, now I have more success with women. I have no success with the women that are important to me, but I'm better than I was. And I will get better, and be better than I am, because I chose that for myself.
Stop with the stupid excuses. We all have our struggles and battles. Some have a harder, taller mountain to climb, but NO ONE will climb it for you. Your feelings, your problem. Either fix them, or shut the **** up and get out of everyone elses way. The meek may inherit the earth, but the strong build it, so put up or shut up.** Electrical & Electrical Engineer Brah **

No offence mate, but you just recently joined so you aren't quite privvy to his history, not that should count against you and it doesn't.
But he comes into every thread and ****in ruins it with his same-old self loathing mini-violin playing bull****. Nothing has changed. Ever. The same ****, for a year now.
Enough is enough, stop recycling your same old bull**** onto whatever newer members are stupid enough to hear it, because we're all tired of hearing it, and you won't change.
IL,
You either do what you have to do to move on, or you don't. Since you won't, no one here gives a ****. Show us all your mobile phone with my fitness pal installed. Show us your meal prep. Show us your macro split and your diet goals. Show us your most recent/favorite food list on MFP. Show us an excel sheet of your lifts. Show us any kind of spreadsheet of your diet. Show us logged weigh ins and how your diet / macros of changed in accordance.
I guarantee you have few, or none of those. And those are pertainanet because this is a body building forum where you're "seeking help". Approach me with your credentials.** Electrical & Electrical Engineer Brah **

Whatever helps the two of you sleep at night. When you start taking responsibility for yourselves you'll realize life doesn't owe you anything. "life" doesn't care about you, and **** happens. You handle it, or you don't.
Prove me wrong. Show me all the ways in which I'm wrong and you two are owed something. Or how the level of **** either of you deal with, somehow should excuse you from working towards betterment. Show me how your feelings aren't your problem. Teach me. I'm willing to learn.
But you can't. Because you know ultimately it's up to you. No matter how deep the **** is in you're in, no one will wade through it for you.

Of course I have none of those things. I haven't tried losing weight in like 7 months because it doesn't work and I've given up on it. Why would I need an excel sheet of lifts? Lifting has no effect on my weight. I just do random lifting because it's a way to burn time. I started doing it when I quit smoking around 5 years ago. I never bothered tracking lift progress because I don't care.
I'm not here seeking bodybuilding help, and I never was. This is the RH section, which I found by accident through Google. The only reason my weight keeps getting mentioned is that it's relevant to my lack of confidence and reduces my ability to attract females."That boulder is too large. I could lift a smaller one."

Also, a good friend of mine, age 24. Diagnosed with cancer. Still deadlifts more than I do. Still lifts more than half thepeople I know. Just finished his last round of chemo. Has a girlfriend helping him. Goes in for another scan where he's already told me he's 100% cancer free, because HE believes that for himself.
This guy is facing a bigger challenge than any of you. Than me. But he's handling it better than I would, or ever could. Because he CHOSE to take upon himself to make the best of it. He could be in bed, whining, blaming "life". Giving up. Throwing in the towel. Pushing his GF away because it isn't fair she should suffer with him. But he doesn't.
You guys are here throwing your lives away because your ****ing eyebrows aren't the way you want them to be, and he's fighting for his life and doing **** with it.
Some people actually deserve to be where they are.
Everyday you wake up and you aren't doing something with yourself, it's an insult to people who never got the chance. We all get a little down sometimes and hate being on this floating rock, but if you think for a second you have any "right" to come around pissing and moaning for years and years because something didn't go your way, you're obviously doing it wrong.
Also @ IL. Funny how you've given up, but have no proof of ever actually trying. Interesting how "It doesn't work", yet you have no way of tracking progress, changing things around or putting forth effort. Okay so you want to quit trying to lose weight. That's fine, theres actually nothing wrong with that at all. Except the only way you can quit something and be happy is if you come to terms with it. So stop whinging about it, and realize that if you're going to dump that card from your hand, then you're gonna have to change your game to play with the cards you do have. Starting with your personality.
Clearly you haven't moved on from it if it's eating you up inside, which brings us back to square one. You either do, or you don't.Last edited by Montre; 03-01-2015 at 09:05 PM.
