Too scared to stand up to overbearing parents

I lost 25 pounds
Got down to 202. My fiance came back from vacation "she was gone a month or so" and i started eating like shit again. I'm back up to 209. I was doing fine on my cut for 5-6 months so I don't think she's the problem. I guess I got to happy with my body and thought I could get away with stoping. I'm starting to look like shit again. Pic related. Is me

why are you even on this board man?

getting too hung up on a girl

Always get lazy and revert back to my old ways.

I think my genetics are fucked. I could only deadlift like 80lbs when I started and now its been over a year and I'm only at two plate.

You know she cheated on you on that "vacation", right?

Because I only started 2 months ago, and I'm not a faggot who thinks making it comes overnight. Takes time breh.
But we are all gonna make it

Cause I thought it would help. I did 25 pounds. Believe it or not I used to look worse. I just sorta stopped and now look like that. I'm only 22 and im surrounded by degeneracy so in a shirt I still get told I'm attractive simply due to a general lack of competition.

too scared to go to the gym been a whole year and i have not been 3 times a single week

>because I'm still trying

This

i have it way fucking harder than 95% of people.
>used to be 100kg at 180
>dropped to 70. still fat as fuck
>lose all motivation for a 2-3 years
>drop to fucking 60
>STILL FAT
seriously fuck off, ive been going to the gym regulary again since january.
i started bulking now, up to 65 atm.
But there is no way around it, its unfair, its not this hard for other people. If i see how good other people would look if they just went for it for 3 months or something and im stuck with this bullshit.
im going up to 70 now then cut and hope i can get to human body shape mode.
holy fuck feels good to have typed that out for once

Some might say something is wrong with me
Some might say I need to change
I don't know how anymore

Highly stressful life/career right now

Drink heavily certain days of the week, might smoke like a motherfucker and pass out on weed friday/saturday nights

Few months ago, every day coming home from work, half a bottle of mixed alchol, usually jimmy bean and vodka, or vodka and white wine. Get drunk out of my mind, or eat edibles, a few hours later i feel like shit and tell myself, fuck it you deserve this, and i take another edible. another 10-20 mg and i am fucking out of it for hours... waste a whole day to drinking/smoking. tell myself i will wakeup tommorow and go to the gym, i get angry sometimes and spill the bottle in the sink, i get angry and spend 40-60 in weed and throw it away after getting super high for 1-2 days..

the drinking is under control now, and i pretty much stopped getting drunk every night, i might have a drink 1 week out of the month. might get high two weeks straght out of the month

tell myself, i will go to the gym tomorrow, tell myself i will study tomorrow, tell myself i can go to the gym after work, 4pm. get out of work and head to the gym and change my mind, turn around go home, watch tv. and feel like shit the rest of the day


sometimes, i get so drunk i wont clean my place for 2-3 days and it will be dirty by monday-tuesday and it just depresses me even more.. but i want the misery, i need to feel like shit

i just want to be normal again Veeky Forums

i don't even care anymore desu

Why did you shave the hair off the top of your head?

I'm 5'6

Because I waste too much time on Veeky Forums. I was able to quit for all of 2015 and half of 2016, but now I am back.

I should really just stop drinking and take better care of my diet.
My training is decent and my intensity is good. I'm making progress, but I know it's slower than if I just ate better and had less alcohol.

I made it, every day I am still making it. I have no need for excuses. I got rid of my fat, and after all of this time still have zero cheat days, still am strict to myself in all ways. Feels good to not to worry about being fat and unfit anymore.

Kek

bcuz no gf

my shoulder is fucked

I'm 22 and balding like a mother fucker. I have a rat tail in the back.

It's cool dude. I have enough self confidence to have a girl friend with out being a huge paranoid/emotional wreck about shit. Don't worry my robot friend one day you to will find love

I just don't know what to do

I'm not confident in my form in the 4 main lifts. My fear of social encounters, inability to hold a conversation and dark anxiety circles under my eyes prevent me from getting a personal training and going to a gym.


I have a gym in my garage with a cage and a barbell and weights. But I feel like it's just going to waste. No matter how many youtube videos I watch, Ripptoe, Scott Herman, Elliot, I can't figure out my form on squats or deadlifts or press. I think I might have a unique body (maybe longer arms and shorter legs?) that requires a personal trainer to help me figure out.

i eat shit (pasta, pizza, drink iced coffee)

im also pale white so i cant really tan, so i dont look good

also bald so i cant be skinny. i also dont eat enough to be big so im stuck at average size

Man.. I had this spark in me when I was 17 to workout and eat big and strict no matter the costs.

I was so motivated and focused. I only thought about lifting. That sparked started leaving me when I was 21 or so. I'm 23 now and haven't been properly lifting or eating for a couple years. I just don't know where that spark went. I want it, I want it so bad, I want to be successful at working out, I just don't have that spark to motivate me. I don't know what happened along the way.

>5'6"

you're 22? Wtf mate. blue collar work certainly makes you look older

Start saving up for that hair transplant senpai

Because I keep giving up
Never again
Witness me

Lazy

I just want to let you know that the people who have it harder, are the ones that come out stronger.

You think you'd have been able to build the mental strength if you were born having had it easy? No. If you had it easy, you wouldn't be able to deal with any difficult situation, you would fucking crack under the pressure.

Let it be known that the only reason you have it hard is because you CAN fucking make it through, it's all on you mane, no one is going to do it for you, you got this, mane.

stop being a fucking faggot and go lift you fucking entitled piece of shit, stop thinking you're a special snowflake too you huge fuck and go lift. you think the people who made it had the same mentality as you? fucking hell no, they went out there and fucking hit the gym hard, there are millions of people out there right now working towards their goals and fucking doing what they WANT, go and fucking lift, stop complaining like a pussy, no one is going to fucking lift for you

stop comparing your situation to other peoples and just work on improving yourself.

Can't sleep
Don't want to get fat but want to be strong

I'm not Chad

If I lifted and she still cheated on me, what's the point in it all?

What causes you to be less scared on the days that you do go? Like I'd think if you were too scared to go three times you'd be too scared to go even once but apparently not

>been cutting for 2 and a half months now
>Down 21 pounds trying to get around 8 to 10% bf
>164 lbs down from 185
>Slack the next 2 weeks
>Up to 167

Kill me. I started to get back on track yesterday though so everything will be okay. Just a little bit demoralizing.

I'M GONNA MAKE IT

- I have, in the past, lacked disipline.
- I have only just started
- I used to stress eat for the following reasons
- My mum is dying of kidney failure
- My dad is a domestically violent mental case alchoholic who used to beat her up
- As the second largest man in the house before I left I kept guard and made sure he couldn't hurt her but she could get revenge on him on the behalf of both of us.
- Being spied on isn't nice
- Neither is dealing wih recurring nightmares of one particularly bad night.
- Exams

i'm starting to to get on track now though. All the stress eating got me 30 lbs in the last few months, and only in the last month and a bit is it starting to drop off me.

Your post isn't even directed at me, but you're a bro

These FUCKING MIGRAINES REEEEEE

cheque'd

The reason you haven't made it yet is because you can't do 1,000 crunches in the morning

>not just realising that no one actually fucking cares about you and the only person who can change you is you

just ingrain that mentality into your worthless fucking brains and you'll realise that holy fuck, you can do anything you want

You sound mad, friend.

video yourself, edit your face out and we will tell you what is going on wrong

just use your head breh

Holy shit, right in the feels

checked

I am mad! I'm mad at all of these people who come to Veeky Forums just to complain and blab about their insecurities, the truth is, no one could give a flying fuck about you or anyone else and people don't seem to understand that, it's annoying, this board is going to shit, complete shit, we need more positivity here.

Broke my fucking arm and had surgery on it twice includin fixing a bicep tendon. 1 year off from serious lifting and martial arts. Its eating me from the inside. So. Much. Depression has been an issue, drug use has come into the picture..

Alcohol

eating disorder

>do a basic test cycle cause i had access to it despite being no where close to natty limits
>doing alright at the gym
>get my first legit gf
>spend all my time with her for a year and a half
>stop going to the gym
>break up with her
>dad dies

I just started going again a couple of weeks ago.
its fucking rough, i lost most of my gains, my lifts are shit.
I want to hop back on that test train, but should probably just focus on eating and training

>intermediate ohp and rows
>novice bench and DL

It's only going to get worse, you'll be weak as fuck, you should probably an hero

I need another 6 months to get to my first goal body. Then another year to get to my 2nd.

Still too fat

Only dedicated enough to go to the gym 3 days a week and basically only doing a variation of SS for 3 years

I guess thats another reason.
Aint got time for that.

t. wagecuck

5'7 in germany. Being 6'1 is manlet status here

Literally in hospital right now because I had to have my sack operated because a testicle almost choked itself to death on its cord.

Morphine is neat though

kek, hi mad
no one cares about your madness tho

Discipline trumps motivation every time

You are anti me

oh fuck, one of those torsions I've heard of?

I lost hope

i have food problems

You don't need the spark.

I hate eating healthy. I hate counting calories. I hate counting macros. I hate lifting weights.

But I do it, with my full effort man. I do it all, to the best of my ability.

You just have to make yourself fucking do it

Yup it hit me in my sleep at 3 in the morning. Had to call an ambulance. Gets awkward but everyone was pretty serious about it since the testicle can die off after a few hours.

That pukey feeling. Just hope my test will be OK. I already masturbated so that's still working.

Can i just ask a question? What "making it" are you guys referring to, what are you trying to make ?

Don't think just drive to the gym and lift

>no kazakh gf

Pepperoni, mushroom and jalepeno thin crust pizza with a side of any of the Sam Adams line

Came here to post this.

Witnessed

>If only it was that easy

Crippling depression likely due to a childhood traumatic brain injury.

fuck, i think you might be right though

god, i just need to forgive myself at this point, there is no point in thinking about the past and being angry, there is a new day everyday, what the fuck is preventing me from being great tomorrow?

started balding at 19, I feel your pain

I have a genetic nerve condition which ruins my aesthetics.

i'm a nigger

Yourself.

holy shit what have i done

Where has me telos gone? what ethos do i have left? why did i leave my old self and created this new pathetic drunk bastard of a human being, this is not the real me at all. why have i given up on myself, holy shit, i am not who i used to be at all... what have i done


there is nothing stopping you at all, you are one person in a world of billions, you made the choice, you chose to stop lifting, you do not love yourself enough to be great again

jej nut torsions are no joke.

A lad of mine went to bed with two balls and in the morning he was in an hospital bed with a single ball.

I have exercise induced anaphylaxis. If push myself too hard i break out in hives 2 days later

if I were you I'd commit sudoku.

You're a mess bro

I have no excuses.

80 lbs > 225. Good job bro you're gonna make it. Stay on track!

we gonna make it user. i believe :)

My eating fucking sucks. Despite that I've been regularly going to the gym for about 3 years now. I have a beer gut but my calves are bretty gud.

So tomorrow I'm popping some vyvanse and running for 40 minutes + HIIT. I'm just going to put lifting aside and eat 1k calories a day. I'm tired of being a fat bitch.

You have almost no time to get to the hospital to get it fixed or you can say goodbye to a nut

>we gonna make it user. i believe :)

Same here, something is different about this week. I think once you hit that bottom the only way left is up. We will all make it senpai..

my game face is on, i am back

Haha I have the same thing. I have to be really careful with how hard I push myself, or I get a call-off-from-work migraine and diarrhea my gains away.

Wait seriously? I'm not the only one?! Ive been to yhe emergency room 4 times from it.

Yeah, it's pretty rare. My doctor asked a specialist who talked to a guy at the Mayo Clinic who was like 'Oh yeah it's probably EIA. Tell him to stop running or whatever.'
Keep a journal of what you eat, when you eat it, and if/when you have symptoms onset. Some folks it's caused by eating a particular food, or just eating in general, within a varying time frame before exertion. I was able to narrow it down to grains, for the most part. If I avoid grain products for like 6 hours before I work out, I don't get diarrhea, and I usually just get a mild headache.
It varies -wildly- between people though.
