mirin progress. You're gonna make it.

>gf of 2~ years leaves me
>shoot myself in the head
>survive
>hospitalized for a month or so
>lost job
>reconnect with family
>move back in with parents
>continue lifts
>break new PRs frequently
>bf% lowering every week
>acquire $60k job a few days ago
>people notice me more
>more girls flirting with me
>going to church again
>spending more time with friends

Every day, week, and month gets better. Some days are tough, with the emotional weight of it all seeming impossible to carry. But I keep moving and keep working. I make my body and mind stronger to be the best version of myself I can be.

There's a quotation that gets posted a lot in motivation threads. "Ask not for less weight, but stronger shoulders to carry it with". Something like that. I keep that idea in my head every moment I can.

Stop drinking. Trust me, it's the first step of a long journey to getting your shit together.

Look good with clothes on and I'm good with girls but getting crushed like that by 4 girls gave me Some serious intimacy/trust issues. I lived alone for this whole time cuz i got kicked out by my psychotic drunk father at the age of 19 a few months after my heroïn addicted brother had been thrown out. I've also been taking care of him this whole time aswell as being a pillar for my mom who still has to live with my Dad. Dont know how long i can take this anymore...

Were all gonna make it brother.
I was 300 pounds and I got to 230 in 4 months.
I got terrible breast tissue gyno I can't work off.
It will only make you stronger and more dedicated.
And those girls that rejected you aint good girls anyways, a real woman would want you for you.
You're gonna make it man.

Started training a year ago now
Up 15kg and sitting at around 14% bf but trying to bulk up to 90kg body weight (at 89 kg now) so almost there
Im actually getting futher from making it, lost my gf and havent gotten laid in almost a year now and i dont know how to break this spiral
>not gonna make it

>>35155577
Thanks man, just been really down past 5 weeks barely eating or lifting and drinking to much. Feel like all the shit isnt worth it, considering seeing a therapist atm.

Greet job on your progress bro!

>>35153240
You seriously tried to kill yourself over a girl? Jesus christ, it's like women are literally the only thing that matters to the average /fit/ poster. The state of having or not having sex/a gf is the difference between happiness and sadness here. I don't mean to be rude but don't you have anything else? Hobbies, friends, family, a career, goals, passion...? Is it all just pussy?

For me it was more of just having a partner I thought would be with me for a long time. As time goes on I keep losing best friends due to sheer circumstance, and losing my closest friend yet, it became too much for me.

I do find happiness in other aspects of my life. I have plenty of friends I see and talk to everyday. I tend to be one of the more social ones in the group too. My family is all very close, including my cousins and aunts and uncles. In terms of passions I write music all the time and sketch portraits as much as I can. For my career, I want to contribute to the development of Artificial Intelligence.

It wasn't about the girl, but wanting to share my life with someone who understood me pretty well. At least now that I've felt that pain, I'll be ready for it again.

Best friend and brother was murdered. It was one of our favorite games and the phrase itself described us well. Same with the military police insignia on my shoulder, that was for him too.

>>35155801
>>35157854
This, you really have no perspective or empathy if you think suicide is that simple.
I had a friend kill himself after having his proposal rejected from his girlfriend of several years.
The last few months she was hinting that she wanted to get married, so I can't really blame him since having the closest person to you toy with your emotions like that would be devastating.

So the very first pic is january. The first four pictures were achieved from january to june. I was actually anorexic, and went from 85kg at 5 foot 10 to 57kg (the 4th picture is me at about 60 i think).

Then I started doing stronglifts for two months (august + september) before switching to SS because stronglifts is shit. The penultimate picture is me after i decided to stop stronglifts, in early september. I weigh about 70kg there.

The final pic is from a week ago and after almost 2 months of SS. I weigh 74kg. Its slow progress, but the anorexia fucked me up bigtime - when i started lifting i had lost so much musclemass i couldnt even OHP the bar. So my lifts are shit but... you know. its a start.

How did you fix your posture? did you do anything specific. I have scoliosis and I need help with that

nearing a yr and a half of going

275x1 bench
185x1 ohp
495x1 deadlift
365x3 squat

(all numbers ive hit IRL)

oh and I'm stoked because I'll be getting approved to get my loose skin removed hopefully in the next week

4 inches off my waist since May. Tracking it on my belt holes since I need to get back down to a 38" waist before a scale is even relevant.

Feels god bros. I used to be a fucking athlete and I let myself turn into a moon. Never again. I'm going to be the baddest motherfucka in the roorm once more.
