Honestly not if you really apply yourself. Cut back to 1500 calories per day and start doing cardio. Even just walking on an incline if you don't want to run, that shit will melt off fast. Especially in the early part of it.

Dude Im like 50 pounds overweight, theres no way that goes quickly

i was balding at 27. Why do you think your personality is bad?

As in why do I think that, or what aspects make it bad?

Phynaster posted...

That's not that bad dude. That's easily turnaroundable in relatively little time.

Still like 6+ months, then all I have is still being fuckin balding at 27 and a horrid worthless personality

jon1012 posted...

Whats your height and weight, TC? You keep talking about yourself being fat.

511 240ish

Yeah ok I think were actually fine

except she said bye to me and I didnt hear because I had music on so I had to pause it and be like sorry what did you say like a dumbass and it ended up being nothing important

By the way I talked to her really briefly today

felt really awkward and weird so I think Ill just never talk to her again

No_U_L7 posted...

Wait, you're white? Yeah, you have 0 grounds to complain about anything

There really is zero reason not to block you is there

Eyeratosthenes posted...

Dating apps would not do well for TC's self esteem issue. They're a warped shade of what they used to be. Hinge might be okay I haven't used that one

Yeah I tried dating apps and got literally zero matches.

What_ posted...

Damn dude youve never been on a date?

Sure havent, Im trash

teep_ posted...

If she does, then you'll know for sure I guess. But judging by your posts, I don't think that'll be the case

Just don't blow up her phone asking if she's done with exams yet >_>

Maybe... I havent talked to her much this week. I usually take an empty cubicle across from hers on Fridays just to get some different scenery instead of my windowless kinda isolated office but idk if I should this week

also I dont have her number so no worries there

teep_ posted...

Of course she does. Just cause exams got in the way doesn't mean it's the end. Trust me, I'm speaking from experience in being on your end

Maaaaaybe

tbh Im expecting her to forget I ever asked

Eyeratosthenes posted...

Dude you are not the ugly monster you have been making yourself out to be. You have actual cuteness potential. Consider shaving your head and getting some stylish frames, something to add a little panache. And yes, obviously work on your health. You don't need to work too hard. The hardest part is calorie counting. Make a myfitnesspal acct and start taking a walk every day. Even 20 minutes is good

Like damn man after seeing your pic you are just a thousand times way too hard on yourself

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I mean its hard to think otherwise when even when I was close to in shape it was never close to good enough

but thanks I suppose

WingsOfGood posted...

What did you talk about?
Was it work or like outside interests?
Did she discuss her childhood and stuff?

Mostly outside interests, and a little bit about our childhoods.

teep_ posted...

You have a job

You spent time with someone else. Someone who obviously also wants to spend time with you back

You have enough money to indulge in your hobbies (vidya)

Believe me, you're further than some people. It's natural to want to be better, and I support your efforts to be so, but you can do so without putting yourself down. It's hard, and I don't expect you to read this post and go "I'm cured!!111" but believe me, it's possible!

Sorry teep I missed this one

i wouldnt say she obviously wants to spend time with me at this point <_<

If I cut it any shorter I may as well shave it all off and I cant pull off that look right now.

losing weight is a valid point but fuck that takes so much time and effort

KiwiTerraRizing posted...

Yes, I used to go to Lawrence to see a friend of mine and bang KU girls. I have no idea why but I always scored down there easily.

Christ

I went there for a combined like 5 years and had zero luck

Kansas had their chance last year but the pandemic happened

such bullshit

If you can handle a lunch with a girl without making her regret it you're not as bad as you seem to think you are.

That's not saying anything about this girl specifically. Just at the very least it means you're good enough to actually have some sort of a social life and the better you are at that the more likely you'll connect with someone.

Im not convinced she doesnt lol

dave_is_slick posted...

Don't. I let my self-doubt and fear stop me from asking out a coworker who I'm fairly certain was interested, at least a little. To the point where some others legit thought we had a thing. Don't be a coward like me, you'll just hate yourself for it.

I dont think thats the case here unfortunately, theres probably no interest there whatsoever

jon1012 posted...

post a pic. we can suggest improvements.

Doesnt really show my shitty fatass body but



god dammit why does gamefaqs auto rotate it

maybe, but its hard to think otherwise, if I wasnt complete trash I wouldnt be where Im at in my life, Id have friends, I wouldnt be a 27 year old permavirgin with a completely platonic lunch with a coworker being the closest thing to a date Ive ever been on, I wouldnt be still living with my parents, etc

Flamer_Blue posted...

With that username I would understand why you thought that.

Ive wanted to change it for years, I just dont know what to change it to

KogaSteelfang posted...

Ever see that pic of a grave, and it's says something like "Where I am, you will be. Where you are, I once was." It's like that. We're on the same path, I'm just further along. The past year or so I've tried to reel myself in and stop posting negative things like you're saying. I was just beating myself up for no reason, I still struggle with that, but it's a good change to make. I just don't want to see like me in 10 years.

I mean I just dont see whats wrong with it when its true

KogaSteelfang posted...

This is a slippery slope, and trust me, you don't want to go where it leads.

How so?

I got this on sale a few weeks ago

Cant wait til I have the time to play it

Can I live off just one meal a day

because this fatty has really gotta lose weight

hockeybub89 posted...

The world is absolutely terrible, but find something to live for on a personal level. Family, friends, hobbies, use those as a reason.

What if your family sucks and you dont have any friends?

wackyteen posted...

I don't get how you guys stay miserable all the time.

Even bad days have their upsides

That really isnt true for everyone

I am miserable all the time

@DarthAragorn do you have a rtx 3080? I was looking at prices and somehow its going for between $1500 to 2500. The higher end prices are ebay ones. You know how price gougers are when it comes to items that are in limited quantity and high demand.

I managed to get one in October at MSRP. Benefits of having a Micro Center retail store in a small market.

EricDraven59 posted...

@DarkRoast

You are exaggerating really just how large a margin the graphical differences are. When you can buy a ps5 for $500, compared to just a single part of a PC which is the RTX for near a thousand dollars, then needing another thousand or more in the other parts to match up to the gaming quality of the RTX. You are looking at the highest end PC being a couple thousand dollars. With the ps5 you will have it for 10 years without needing any upgrades for the graphics that next gen is gonna bring, compared to interval upgrades needed for a PC to run the same graphics

Nvidia is so far ahead hardware wise that if games utilize DLSS that 3080 will stay ahead of the PS5 the whole gen

Hades

And people told me I could wait on it lol

thank you micro center for having a shipment the first morning I went to the store, I paid 699 and was done

Well at least I got hair growth shit today. So in 6 months to a year maybe I wont be bald as fuck at least, just still fat and ugly and no social skills

No and never will

Rarely, mostly just to try to keep cool when its hot out, no point otherwise

One_Day_Remains posted...

I think you just need encouragement and reassurance

But you also have to be open to receiving it as well

Theres nothing good to encourage or reassure

Eyeratosthenes posted...

plenty of therapists can accommodate weekends. my weekly slots have changed from friday evenings, to saturday afternoons, to thursday afternoons, and now to wednesday nights. a lot will also charge on a sliding scale

I might need to find one that offers it for almost free, Im fucking broke

I am 100% serious and if anything Im not hard enough on myself for where Im at in life

ROOTFayth posted...

get another therapist, find one thatll help

I don't know how I can find the time to do that working Monday through Friday

smoke_break posted...

It sounds like she's just being friendly. I would keep being her friend and be cool with that, use this as a way to gain experience around women. It doesn't seem like you have much of it, not roasting just an observation.

nah i have plenty of experience

of them wanting nothing to do with me because I'm fucking trash

Phynaster posted...

Idk I think eating a platonic lunch with a coworker but secretly comparing it to a date is kinda creepy. Just reminds me of the Duran topic where he was convinced his nurse was into him because she had to work with him then got all stalkery about it

I mean I already know she wouldn't have any interest in me because I'm fat and fuck ugly and she's neither of those

jeffhardyb0yz posted...

Ive seen these topics way too many times to not know how this ends

to be fair i've been me way too many times to not know how this ends so it would be the least surprising thing since a new yearly sports title

Tenlaar posted...

This is creepy and if she knew that you posted this she wouldn't eat with you any more.

she probably wouldn't anyway

Solution_45 posted...

what about today?

she actually came in late yesterday but when I asked her if she wanted to have lunch she said she had brought homework to do during lunch because it's midterms week and asked for a raincheck

she doesn't work Tuesdays plus I stayed home sick

I know Im absolute garbage so yeah

because I still live with them like the failure that I am

ROOTFayth posted...

have you tried therapy?

Years ago, it didnt really help

I almost cried at work today so theres that

Beveren_Rabbit posted...

it's 2021. The CE being forever alone meme is over. Most of us are over the age of 27 , married, and have kids.

maybe like 10% of the userbase is single, but that's mostly because they are young and they shouldn't feel bad for being single.

Im 27 and Im a garbage permavirgin that should feel bad for being single

Shut the fuck up

No, Im single because Im fat, ugly, bald and have a garbage personality
