"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Before and After Pic - My Progress

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I don't dig the hiphop look, but that's some amazing progress (both physically and style-wise). That looks like 2 different persons. Keep up the good work!

Congrats on the weight loss, brother.

How'd you do it? Detail your workout and diet regimen.
Thanks. I work out every weekday in the mornings, before I eat anything. I run up and down the stairway at my apartment complex until my heart rate is extremely high, then I try to keep my heart rate up there for as long as I can.

I also joined the basketball team at school, and that kept me active for a few months.

As far as my diet goes, I just stopped eating so god damn much. I stopped drinking soda, stopped with the sodium filled hot pockets, and started preparing my own food. I calorie cycle but on average I eat 2000 calories a day.

What's it like going from 240 to 183?
It's changed my life. People, girls especially, treat me completely different.

I'd like to say it's the way I carry myself and my game but I know it also has to do with my appearance.

The other day I went into a convenience store to pay for some gas, and there was a fat guy in front of me in the line. There was a real cutie working cashier. I watched as the fat dude was treated with disdain by this cutie. She wasn't looking at him, she had a dull look on her face, monotone voice. Than when I walked up, all the sudden she's got a big smile on her face and completely changes her personality. In a way, it's sad how shallow our society is. But what can you do?

Great work man, you must feel great now.

I've been on both sides of that fence bro, and I know how it feels on each ;) I've been the chubby(fat) guy with an extra chin, and I've been the cut guy with good muscle, 6 pack, and popping veins.

Right now I'm more like the Before pic you posted ;)

cheers, and again congrats on the lifestyle change.

Nice work bro. You look like a completely different person. Way to go.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Good job! Must feel great!

Do feel the "hiphop" look though, you kinda look like The Alchemist. I guess you can now start bulking up to gain some mass.

Keep up the good work!

That is amazing man, nice job!

Did you use anything to track your workouts/calorie intake?
