For those who have "made it"

How has your life changed since making it? I'm referring to those who have reached their goal bodies or are coming damn near close to it.

Strength (aesthetics was a natural byproduct)

6'4" 300lbs to 240 over about 3.5 years.

It made me a better person. My focus and work ethic in the gym bleed into my work life. My career is significantly better for it. I'm more self determined, confident, and I feel sharper. I rarely have "foggy" days and I always feel switched on, whereas when I was fat, some days I had no motivation. I have access to a completely different tier of women. Every thing in my life has more devotion, attention to detail. Even my hobbies I'm seeing greater success.

There is literally nothing better for yourself than putting in the work over time, seeing the result, get addicted to the results, and get addicted to the work.

>t. Fat guy who wears basketball shorts and fingerless gloves to the gym

Sorry OP. Literally no one ever makes it. The closer you get to your ideal body the more your body dysmorphia sets in.

But realistically you'll already look so good it won't matter at some point.

fuck

All "making it" gets you is your friends and family "jokingly" asking you about doing steroids and being afraid of whey.

QUINTS OF DEATH

Bump for truth

Newfag

I don't feel like I've made it but everyone else tells me that I have. People will often comment on my body out of the blue even when I try to avoid it. I tend to wear baggier clothes because I honestly don't like the extra attention.

>Do people treat you different now?
Yes, definitely. Before I was invisible. Nobody would notice if I was there or wasn't. Just another face in the crowd. But now, people make eye contact and say hi even if they're complete strangers. Going out in public sometimes is extremely weird because that 'sixth sense' that people have when they can feel someone staring at them goes berserk.

>Is it easier to be around people/socialize?
Yeah. It's actually weird. Like, if you're not an asshole and pretty cool, people WANT to be friends with you. It's like they're surprised you're not a douchebag idiot stereotype. Like they'll go out of their way to be your friend. Whereas before I would have to make an effort to talk to others (which is hard for an socially anxious introvert). Which makes making friends a lot easier.

>Do girls become more available to you? (Chase/admire you?)
Yeah. Definitely. I'm actually still not used to it. A lifetime of being called creepy has kind of fucked me up. I tended to avoid girls because I didn't want that label on me. But now girls will blatantly eye fuck me or give me signals that go over my head.

>Have people tried to come back into your life?
Not really. I don't really have a social media presence or wasn't really popular when I was younger. So maybe that's why?

>Functional strength or aesthetics?
It's always been about being strong and not looking good. I was on a hard bulk for the longest time before I couldn't keep it up anymore. It got to the point where I was literally eating meat and junkfood all the time (seriously, ALL DAY) and I was still losing weight. After a while I just said fuck it and went slow bulk.

HOLY FUCK QUADS LAMO

anyone whos actually made it likely doesnt browse Veeky Forums anymore

if you're lifting for girls, just realize you'll only move up like a half a point in terms of the attractiveness of the women you were fucking when you weren't Veeky Forums

ask yourself if that's worth the time investment

>Do people treat you different now?
yes
>Is it easier to be around people/socialize?
yes
>Do girls become more available to you? (Chase/admire you?)
girls approach me, rarely have to go out of my way to talk to one
>Have people tried to come back into your life?
yes, my ex is always "coincidentally" at the gym same time as me, always touching me
>Functional strength or aesthetics?
aesthetics, fuck functional strength unless you compete in power lifting

but that doubles my number on a scale from 0 to 10

>tfw you're getting to your goal body
>tfw it doesnt matter anyway because I have chest and backacne, so I can never walk without a shirt on and showoff what I've been working hard at

I've done accutane twice now and it still won't go away

It's all good though...

you're better off just being celibate and masturbating to porn when it comes to sex with any girl under a 7 in terms of attractiveness

Don't listen to the faggots in this thread, get fucking big. You're gonna make it if you truly want it.

didn't realize people could be this retarded

I am doctor bro (finishing cardiology fellowship) have finance/ investment friends who make bank. I guess I could count as "made it".

6'3 bro, lifting since uni.

Will say this; nothing pulls women like wealth, confidence and a decent sense of humor.

Aesthetics helps, but my god, money is king if you want to pull women like OP's pic on the regs.

that's the flaw of perception, you never "make it"
you notice when you had it cause now its gone.

charity quints you fucking scrub

...

well, he's right: having one night stands or even just sex with average girls is not much different from masturbating. In fact masturbating is probably preferable.

Sure, if you're ugly.

I'm 22. 6'3, 220 lbs., fairly lean bf (abs), bench a lot, great frame, 6.5 year natty lifter.

>Do people treat you different now

Yes. Most guys will grant you an instant base amount of respect off of size alone. The amount of people ever fucking with you goes down by 75%, the other 25% are just plain crazy.

>Is it easier to be around people/socialize

Starting off I didn't really "grow" along with my body, mentality wise, so I was still something of a bitch. I've grown into it with time and am now more aware of my presence and I'm much more at ease in social situations.

>Do girls become more available to you?

Short answer: yes. In depth - things still remain complicated. There are a host of girls who are generally hoes, 6's and 7's, who will flock to you. Some will outright beg for your dick on occasion, I'm assuming they have a muscle/domination fetish. As for dating and finally nabbing that 8 or 9/10, it's still difficult. They're attracted to you and you're certainly going to get their time of day but they will still make you jump through hoops and generally not trust you. Hot women are wary of hot men and they generally want most of the attention, which is why they'll usually settle for some mediocre schlub who dotes on them. I have noticed a serious pattern of this in my own experience.

>Have people tried to come back into your life?

My oneitis from high school did but I was finally beyond her by that point

>Functional strength or aesthetics

Find the perfect balance of both. Don't be fat or a vain puffball.

Everyone in this thread is 6 foot+

I'm assuming if you're a 5'7 manlet like myself it's not possible to make it...

go for shorter grills

If that's your bird then you've made it user.

A shorter guy will always get cucked in the end though

I'm not saying your wrong, but how do you make it clear you have money? Just walk and say "Hi I'm user, my bank account value is in the 6-digit range and you have lovely hips."

>Do people treat you different now?
yes
>Is it easier to be around people/socialize?
yes
>Do girls become more available to you? (Chase/admire you?)

>Have people tried to come back into your life?

Went to Asia a couple times and the girls there a very short on average but they will wear high heels in any setting

> flashbacks to girl climbing the great wall in six inch heels like it was nothing

Find yourself a qt Asian girl and you're set, they typically have conservative views on dating (average age of virginity lost is 22) so you would be safer in terms of cheating risks

No
Yes
Was never a problem
Didn't need to
Functional

>Do people treat me different now?
Yes. Women would hardly notice me in a room, now simply meeting their gaze makes them blush.
>Is it easier to be around people/socialize?
It is a million times easier.
>Do girls become more available to you?
Two weeks after I decided to make a change I lost my virginity. I was 21 years old. It seemed like I no longer had anyone out of my league.
>Have people tried to come back into your life?
Yes. One ex made a pass at me at a party, realized I was with another girl, ran away. Another girl who stood me up on a date came back. Twice.
>Functional or aesthetic?
Both, more functional but I naturally build lean muscle and lose weight super fast, so aesthetic isn't much of an option.

It has been the best decision of my life. I wish I could have enjoyed actually having a chance with women for a bit longer but I ended up meeting the love of my life. For reference I am 6'1, 185 lbs. 1.5 years ago I was 6'1 140 lbs.

You are fake news

go for taller girls

don't doom your kids

Being average height and going after women that are as tall if not taller then you means that the relationship is not going to last for very long.

Impregnate them quickly

This doesn't apply to everyone. My goal was ottermode, I reached it about a year ago and I've been satisfied with my body ever since.

Eh, if you're tall strong and she's worried about her height and weight and you fling her around like she's a loli...then they get clingy and thirsty.
And not in the fun "I own that little cunt" kind of way either. Oh jesus, and if she likes what you're packing in the meat department and she can barely handle the beef?


It's best to just keep them as fuck buddies and never GF them up.

I'm going to kill myself. It's literally pointless if you're short. Nobody will ever take me seriously regardless of how much muscle I build. Fuck it time to end it all.

>pic related: 2 years of work for nothing because I'll always be 5'7

oh ym god trips

>lifting for girls

my man what you need is a hobby, if you're working out to cycle better or play a sport better than no matter what you're getting satisfaction out of it.

who is this jizm prism?

yes
no
yes but broken penor ;_;
yes
both :^)

>broken penor

Someone took the dick push ups meme seriously

is it truly over for us manlets

Moby with his service dog cuts in front of you and takes your bench. Wat do?

I didn't make it yet (Goal Body). but i get mired alot and get compliments from grillos.
On your way to your Goal Body, you will get alot of pussy, assumed you are confident... cause this is all that matters.

>true story

What a fucking retard. This guy is 5'6 and is loved by millions.

who is this guy?

>filename

Also
>met gf at a club
>surprised she's a whore
Shocker. The only type of girls who have this """"preferences""""" are usually the ones who are shallow, and can be found in clubs. Here's a gem I found on /pol/

Find a 5'3 bitch that will worship you

>a gem you found o pol

this is cringe and beta as fuck... /pol/ is full of beta cucks that can't get pussy.
Wtf care about marriage? Do you Need the security a woman Needs, are you going to feels save, did you make it if marriage... so fucking cringe, beta.
Just fuck bitches, qts, "good" church grills. Man needs only a pussy too fuck. Be your best, look awesome and fuck alot of pussy.

Fuck this /pol "gem" my ass. This is something beta cucks and virgins love to read and believe on.

This is cringe, holy shit! You sound like a dumb nigger.

>cringe
>beta
>cuck
stop trying too hard, I can see that """alphaness""" you speak of oozing from your post.
You cant even form a coherent sentence. pls fucking go, reddit

...guys, i want you only to get pussy and be happy.
Dont search for a perfect wife, dont care about marriage.
Be your best and flirt alot. Die as a happy man that has something more to tell then
>have wife and Kids
>build a house

it made my penis bigger

I haven't made it yet but

>Yes
People respect fit people more
>No
Nothing much has changed here, I've never had trouble socializing before
>Yes
I could always get girls but now its just easier I don't have to try as hard. Talking and giving them any attention is enough. As far as getting chased this only ever happens by sub 5/10 fatties.
The drawback is that my standards have gone way up
>No
I generally have a inner circle of friends i see at least once a week and rarely change. It's been like this since high school. We're currently playing DnD and being complete autistic retards together
>Aesthetics
What kind of questions is that. Its not like I'll ever need to use any real strength in real life but i'll take what i can get.

When I make it I'll probably come here to post my before and after pics to motivate the fatties

Go back to pol you fucking loser, this is fit

Socializing is a million times easier, for me at least. People just give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you must be funny, charming ,etc etc

>yes
>no
>yes
>no
>aesthetics and there is no such thing as 'functional' strength unless your function is to push a prowler or hoist a kettlebell or whatever. look up 'training specificity'.

Both yours and the image you're replying to are cringe. He is beta because he feels he needs to be completely in control of him woman to feel secure and also lets his marriage define him. You are beta because you try so hard to be alpha, you believe that happiness comes with having many casual relationships and seem to think the number of girls you fuck defines you. Do you think it's written on your gravestone when you die?
Real happiness is somewhere between these two.

>Pussy is the only route to happiness
>A man's legacy is based on his confirmed kills

How old are you?

I've lost 30 lbs, but I don't think I've even come close to making it yet. However, even at his point in my journey I can say that my life has improved tenfold in all regards, socially, romantically, how I'm treated, my happiness levels, everything.

I'm at the point that when I finally 'make it' I think my hair will turn gold or something and I'll start floating because just being where I am at now is fucking amazing.

And on that note, I am off to the gym.

>Pussy is the only route to happiness
>A man's legacy is based on his confirmed kills

How old are you?

You are right my fraundo.

I maybe write the Number in my Gravestone, ist not a bad idea!

>0,6

I have back hair & back acne

it can always be worse user

maybe if you're driving a bentley instead of a beamer

>woman dont need controlling
Huh, have you ever been outside at all?

>lets his marriage define him
Wow you just pulled that out of your ass. Congratulations, now you just proved that you are a complete idiot.

As long as your body isn't abnormal (skelly or obese), it won't affect how people treat you that much. Sure a great body does a lot when it comes to attracting women but it won't change your life. If you're a sperglord you can have the body of Zyzz and it won't matter and if you have a great personality and charisma, you can easily get away with being a skinnyfat slob.

I would say I've made it though and it has nothing to do with being fit. I met my girlfriend before I started lifting, we both study engineering and she genuinely like me for my personality (and I like her). We both started working out at about the same time and now we both have great bodies and our relationship is as close as ever. Would she leave me if I became fat? I doubt so. Would I leave her if she became fat? Nope. I suspect most of you are teenagers and at that age you think physical apperance is everything but with age you'll come to appreciate personal chemistry much more. When you meet a girl you genuinely enjoy being around without fucking (but still desperately want to fuck her until your dick hurts) then you should never leave her.

virgin huh

Best post I've read in ages. All truth.

im Close 30 (tear drip down my cheek).

Man... i didn't wrote that pussy is the only route that makes you happy...
But nice pussy makes you happy, believe me on that.
I sayed also "be your best", this alone will make you happy too through the expiriences you will get through being your best.
Happynes is nothing that last Long, happynes only last couple of minutes. The more expiriences and success you have as man, the more happy moments you have.

A Man's legacy is indeed confirmed by his achievements.

The more a man spread his Sperma on this world, the better he was Feeling.

pet his service doge haha got eme

You fucking drunk?

Greek feets are the more aesthetic

>virgin as an insult
Are you a female?

I sexted with a girl last night, only got 4 hours of sleep because of it but it was worth it.

Have I officialy made it?
She sent me snapchats of her boobies : )

>When you meet a girl you genuinely enjoy being around without fucking (but still desperately want to fuck her until your dick hurts) then you should never leave her.

My relationship with my ex-girlfriend was like this, except she suffered from a severe mental illness and, in effect, destroyed herself and our relationship. It was a very difficult relationship, but there was always the fundamental aspect of enjoying each others' presence. I miss it, even though I'd never go back to the abusive behavior inbetween.

I guess I got interested in self-improvement because I thought it'd help me replace that intimacy, but I feel like the real issue is I don't know how to approach people I actually like and respect while being myself. I know what you're saying is true, but I don't know how or when it will happen.

There's my blog.

I did not really have a "goal body" but it looks like I am close to the girls' ideal.
I lift for the strength and overall benefits of being "fit", and I am still away from my goals.

Anyway, there is a lot of change in my interactions with ppl and especially women and in a good sense. But looks and fitness on its own are not enough... one should actively improve his game in the social ways....

>yes /I treat myself differently at the first place anyway/
>yea /but it's a part of a bigger change, learn about body language and stuff if you want that/
>yes, girls are more interested but do not parade with your physique... you will look shallow if you expect them to fall for you just because you are fit...
>no
>both

also, girls are generally jealous of your better body and feel intimidated if you are in perfect shape and hate you for your body... that is an inevitable byproduct of being in a very good shape.

These are interesting I like reading them

Don't worry. Body dysmorphia is lingering in the background. It gets everyone.
