Thank you so much for your support! I understand completely. I lost so many friends and did indeed develop quicker professionally. I have found it more difficult throwing myself into relationships as I have gotten older. So, if i don’t do it now, I envisage becoming lonely ,old, hot, spinster…LOL
You should add your wish list since it’s a new year. Lets see if we can conjure them up!
MAN… where were you a few years ago??? Im having a bit of a rough time now… i work monday thru friday… have my own business on top of that. My hours can be erradic(sp?)… i work out and take care of myself to the point where the wife gets REALLY REALLY annoyed LOL. I guess i don’t spend enough time at home shrugs - shes not a fan of muscle’d up gym guys… i think her view of it has changed since we got married. She liked me working out when we were dating… now she hates it. I’m not huge by any means… and i certainly don’t consider myself even close to the guys i wanna look like but her views of what i want to achieve are really starting to wear on me lol. Everytime i mix up a protein shake or cook up a piece of chicken - she try’s getting me to eat junk… or get chinese food instead… if i tell her i don’t want it but shes mroe than welcome… she gets pissed…
ok im gunna stop now i guess seeing your “description” struck a note in me
Oh and regarding work… as long as your happy and have a good life as you said you do… it was all worth it! You’ll be complete one day…
Hazzard that was such a nice response. Thanks. You sound like a really nice guy and, I am sure you’ll work through it. I can be tough when someone tries to make you fit into there ideal. Someone iknow tried to do this to me just the other day. I had to ask them to let me be me with all my faults and quirks and, i promised I would accept them with all their faults and, try to remember they were there own person. Even when i did not agree with their choices. This was’t even a potential lover! Just another nosey parker minding my life fo me.
Re: Protien shakes. I am just trying out Reflex instant whey. have you tried it? 80g Protein per 100grams. What are you using. This week I have shifted another 3lbs alone. It’s great. I have so much energy and no hunger at all. Just have to keep ontop of the fluids. What are you using?
What makes it so tough is that i was my own person when we met… and while we dated LOL… since then… i’ve stopped my jiu-jitsu/mma training… cut back my lifting (got back into that tho lol)… stopped going out at night… stopped going for walks/runs at night… stopped hiking and rock climbing… stopped surfing and spear fishing… it’s friggin depressing LOL - i try and work it all in when I can… it’s just not nearly as frequent as it used to be. i try to explain to her that i love these things and i can’t do them all in the same day/week/month… but when i DO do them… i’d like to be able to without having a tiff and then having my bad mood dampen my day LOL
Regarding the protein - i use ON whey protein. It’s all I use right now - i try to put on lean mass so i can do without the added weight gainer calories. I’m sitting on 223.5lbs right now… up about 8lbs from 4 month ago or so. My goal weight is 240lbs… i will reach it… just gunna take a while LOL. I’m sure it’ll be 250 after that - THAT wont make the wife happy LMAO!
Congrats on the 3lbs! Shoot over to the workout enthusiasts social group… lots of interesting stuff going on in there!
