I have noticed a phenomenon where the chicks who were good looking in HS have let themselves go and are overweight, while the chicks who were a little overweight and nothing special in HS have gotten into good shape and look pretty good. It sort of like being in an alternate universe where roles are reversed. I can't tell you how many chicks I've seen that I never looked twice at back in the day that are pretty attractive and woodbury now.

Yes. Especially with one friend in particular. He used to be just as into lifting as I was and we would train together 4-5 days a week. He was kind of a beast too, I was always behind him in strength and could not seem to catch up. He got married and completely fell of the fuking map. Stop lifting all together and must have gained 30lbs of pure fat. I see him now and it's like he's not even the same person anymore, he's completely given up on his physical appearance.

Call me shallow but I cannot respect a person who does that. I've lost respect for him as a result.

My mind is more blown about how many people don't do chit in general after college. Had three good friends in high school, we all turned 30 this year. Friend 1. greeter at costco, has zero ambition and no desire to move out of friend basement, does not lift does not get women, looks like chit. Friend 2. phlebotomist - lives in the basement of his grandmas house, lifts but is undisciplined so he made 0 gains in 10 years and has turned to biking to make up for it, is divorced, balding, has ambition but doesn't do chit about it. Friend 3. works in a bookstore, lives in his grandmas basement with his large wife, does not lift, has zero ambition to do anything in life yet is constantly talking about making money and retiring. It is insane how little the average person does with their life.

Birds of a feather though bro

You must be at least a little like them to end up friends with them for a while, hope your chit doesn't come tumbling down and you end up like them, be vigilant etc





Also kinda sad how your story includes people living with relatives well into their 20's/30's, at least part of the problem causing all this depression and lack of motivation and lack of ambition is the way the housing market is these days. Men can't go out and be men any more because we don't have our own space to develop as people... you can't become a man living with Granny in your 30's baking cookies and shiet... nor can you develop as a person working 50 hour weeks as a slave to afford to scratch by each month on the rent

Back in the day men moved out at 18-22... 23-25 was considered hella late. These day's aside from a while at university most men are still at home being babied and wrapped up in cotton wool. It's just not possible these days society is feminized as fuk, whether by the schooling system, estrogen in the drinking water and plastics or by men being raised by single women. The end of days man it's fcking sad.

Not mind blown. Have you seen the garbage people eat on a regular basis?

Nobody can cook for sh*t either.

People always say I'm "boring" for the way I eat and that "enjoying food is a big part of enjoying life"

Bitch you're a whale, pretty sure I enjoy life more
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

I wouldn't even swipe right on what used to be the hottest girls in my hs. I think all the partying and booze they do in college really takes a toll on them. They eat chit foods, booze it up every weekend, don't exercise, and along with that comes the degrading of facial aesthetics. It's a sad but common occurrence. Hence why girls tend to lose their glow around 20/21.

This is so true brah.

I moved out at 18 and lived with roommates through most of college, then lived with my GF for about 2 years.

I really didn't start to get my **** together until I was completely out on my own with literally nobody to rely on except for myself.

Used to be a lazy ****er and my apt was a mess, would put off doing dishes, put off doing laundry, generally just be a lazy piece of crap and get high all the time.

That lazy attitude doesn't just stop at putting off chores. It leaks into every aspect of your life and poisons it.

I'm that guy. I was a 4/10 back in hs (fat, greasy, acne, bad hair) and now I'm pretty top-tier.

Also, have you seen the foods most adults eat? I had to go to a starbucks this morning and to not seem like a weirdo with the people I was with, I ordered something I thought would be fairly low cal. Turns out a medium hot chocolate is 400 calories. WTF????? Then these slobs everywhere drink like two of these high calorie drinks on a daily basis and don't even consider it bad since it's not food, couple their chit food choices and mfers are ingesting 3-5k cals easily.

It used to blow my mind, now I'm late 20s and (while still in good shape myself), I do kind of understand it.

Life is pretty **** for most people, and when all of your best efforts don't amount to much, you think fuk it, why bother. While that's not the attitude to have if you want to be a champion, it's understandable why many people become jaded, depressed, and just stop caring.

Not trying to be a sad kunt, it's just the reality for a lot of people, life just wears you down after a while, be that due to work stress, failed relationships, expectations of life not being close to reality, etc

And then they spend money on fad diets or miracle pills that are supposed to do all the work for them.

But aren't willing to learn nutrition 101, buy a scale, or track what they're eating.

I swear my female co-worker is on a new pill or diet every week and always asks me what I think about it. I'm just like... "yeah give it a shot maybe it will work..."

Drugs and alcohol don't do anything to the degradation of looks. If you're a meth addict you're not eating, working out, sleeping or being healthy at all. Yet, people blame the drug. Same goes for alcoholics, they usually eat like chit, smoke and don't work out either. I don't think it's the alcohol changing the looks.

Drugs have nothing to do with the way your body degrades imo.

I'll take back my statement if you can show me a scientific study on this.

Smoking definitely does because of free radical damage to DNA - tobacco/nicotine is technically a drug

And the problem with smoke (meth/tobacco/weed/doesn't matter) is that it's dehydrating, as is alcohol and coffee - dehydration also contributions to degradation of looks because the body needs water to keep cells working properly and move toxins through the body

Some people make it later than others.

After college I was 25 working at a grocery store for minimum wage. Now I'm 27 and making 80k as a cop.


Although if you have no ambition, you're fuked.
Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

Agree. Just yesterday one of the pretty popular girls who made fun of me for being a day hitch just yesterday messaged me asking how I've lost all this weight and how good I look. She's close to 300 lbs these days.

I've reached a point where fat people completely disgust me. Especially people who whine about not having time to work out or something like that. Just an ounce of self control with eating/drinking. And a little bit of physical activity goes a long way.




TBH I'm not even attracted to 99% of females in my age group. (I'm 29.) The majority of them completely disgust me. They look older then they should because of partying too much, letting themself go, and taking miles of dick. Its really not even difficult to remain youthful and in good shape.
