What Roke-Ster Is Up To:
Dec 14, 2009
Roke-Sterchanged Weight from 164.5 lbs. to 165 lbs., a 0.5 lb. gain in 7 days
Well the getting high part has nothing to do with the losing fat part. BUT i did start losing weight because i saw myself in the mirror one day while i was high, and decided right there and then to change. Two years later. Im so goddamn close to my goal, but it feels so damn far away..
I just...
i'm glad it made you reflect.
the next time you're pissed, watch some of the videos on my page. they're full of teh l0lz!1!! but yea...i eat when i'm sad, for sure. when i'm happy or mad, i don't, though.
/agreed. i've leaned out completely before, & i can do it again. i just gotta get over this thing i have where i stress eat. but it's hard to get over. =/
as for that voice, i believe that stems from disbelief that it's finally happening to you; disbelief that you're now living the life you deserve & the body that you desire. your mind truly can't believe that it's happening & is gunna make you feel so much better about yourself.
the last few lbs are hard, 'cause you gotta lower your calories. or increase activity. but the thing is, after a certain point, you can't do that w/out it affecting your life! we don't all have time to exercise more than we already are; eh? or we can't consume less than we already are.
yep yep. food can definately be a drug. but the thing is, you gotta eat to live. so, it's not like you can give up eating. or else you die. =S
i think the reason things seem so impossible @ the end is that we're probably just frusterated @ the amount of time it's taking.
when we started this journey, we def forgot that we'd relapse a few times along the way. but as long as the OVER-ALL trend is great, then there's nothing to worry about. after all, changing one's lifestyle & eating habits is HYOOOGE. there's no way you can do it struggle-free. everyone makes mistakes. but what's CRUCIAL is that we LEARN from them, to avoid reoccurances.
also, we're SO freakin' young. we have decades of life left to get it correct.
my x-mas was really good. didn't seem to gain any fat this time around. "the 3rd time's the charm", after all. ;)
meh. 2010 is gunna be a big year for me. i don't know of any other mistakes i can possibly make. so, i SHOULD be good to go. i'm hoping that by this time next year, i'll be lookin' REALLY different. go us! =) "team former obese". xD
meh. give it time & maybe some more years on your life, & you'll soon have the confidence that you seek & crave. =)
how were your holidays? did you go back to your old ways? last year & the year before that, i did. this year, i didn't! however, i did go back to my old ways temporarily in late oct/early nov. *cough* guy problems *cough*. BUT I'VE MOVED ON...& more importantly learned that there's still work to do & that i'm not as invincible as i thought.
yea. there's really no reason to go back. i was unhappy. now, i'm happy. life is so much better now; even w/ the extra skin. that's just 1 thing that sucks. but everything else is fantastic! ... well, guy issues, too. but they can go **** themselves. i can get a new guy REALLY easily these days. feels good, man.
bahaha. i'm very loveble. xD
YESSSSS. my social life has made a complete 360. holy ****ing SHTI!
i started my transformation in jan of '07; still can't believe i kept going. i must really want this; badly. ;)
...yup; sounds 'bout right.
you're still newer @ this, eh? when i was newer, my insecurities & social life were a bit different than they are now. trust me. it'll get better!!! =) just keep going. GO GO GO GO GOOOOO.
dang. i don't use myspace. =(
meh. let's just keep in touch on here. we can definitely help each other w/ the insecurities thing. i'm pretty stable. but sometimes my insecurities do shine through. painfully. but what can ya do. we're still young & are trying to find ourselves. i, myself, am REALLY behind schedule. i basically had no life what.so.ever & remained the same age from 16-21. so, i have a LOT of work to do. but...ehh...what can ya do. =/
haha just pick it up and see if you'd want it or not, you've gotta think for yourself man. it's a good book, so it shouldn't matter how long it is if what you get is worth it
So no matter what you want.. if you're 35 and want to slim down, youre doing MMA next year and want strength or if you've got 6 months til spring break and want to bulk up and then cut fat it tells you how to do basically anything
yeah it's something for life. best $20 investment a bodybuilder can make. that is if you're looking to lift for life at least. it breaks bodybuilding into like 5 different categories - mass, strength, growth, cutting fat/high reps, and another style which is basically how to stimulate all the nerves in your muscles so that when you transition to heavy lifts you maximize the results.
it's pretty technical. you wouldn't need any info than what's in this book to reach major goals and compete one day. at the same time, if you just want to write up a 6 month plan on getting huge arms and chest, this is it too. check it out on amazon.
