I do it for my fucking dad. He made me the man I was today. I owe him everything.

Fucking cops

Damn their high speed chases

I loft for my dad too but the exact opposite reason my hatred fuels my lifts and on the winter solstice next year we will face eachother and I will kill my father as my father did to his father and so on

self-loathing

ive been fat my whole life, ugly in clothes, uglier naked, uncomfortable all the time, easier target of bullying because kids know people feel bad about such a thing, doctor telling me i will die etc

so im in progress now, cutting 6 months straight

Fat people take the routes of dying stars anons. Either fading away slowly or literally exploding and fucking everything around it.

I didn't want to do either of those things anymore so I got Veeky Forums

>be fat ass through middle and highschool
>play American football freshman year so some lifting
>graduate at 6'4 290lbs
>tired of being a fatass
>find Veeky Forums start lifting heavy and drop 100 pounds in a year strict diet
>go from XXL shirt to a L
>190 pounds 6'4 girls now interested in me but I still think I'm the 290 pound fat fuck
>bulk up to 250 make gains
>currently cutting at 235 want to get to 220ish then bulk again
>despite me pulling decent girls I still feel like a nasty fat fuck
>will the insecurity every go away former fat Bros?

I'm just turned 21 so I'm still young and have gains to be made but I still feel I'm a fat fuck when in reality im really not

My self-hatred over my pathetic lanky body, lack of confidence, and perpetual lack of gf.
