Thanks for the response. I have to say that I didn't like what switch or some others had to say in here, but I have found it to be true. I am keeping the carbs under 50 Grams a day and I am sluggish, but I can feel the difference as long as I have a calorie deficit. Overall you get out what you put in and I need a heavy dose of getting thicker skin and keep persisting.
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
Dropping pounds.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
on the consistencyI got 180 bench today a couple times. Going to try to get 185 next time. I also walked a bit and did tricept pull downs. I noticed that with the switch to low carb low energy, but a bit of a better body. Plus I am turning down suger all over the place. Especially tonight...tonight was a night that I would turn to crap food, but I would rather be tired and get better than eat sugar and be sucky.
I again felt a bit like bla with the low carb diet. I am on day 17 and I just am telling myself that if I want to be #1 I need to sacrifice. I lifted boxes all week moving so I was really sore. I ate chicken, egg whites, Cheese, etc to try to feed my sore muscles. I do notice I am a bit smaller (which is a good thing because I am fat) Thank you everyone for chiming in. I am going to bench tomorrow and really work on two lifts, bench and squat.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
I did bench today and I got 185 x2 but the spotter put his finger on the bar lifting it the second time. So there is some progress at-least getting stronger. I went for a small walk on a treadmill and tri extentions and some cable flys.
Christmas went well. I got lots of things that I am thankful for. I did as best as I could on low-carb. I probably went over on the calories, but I didn't eat cake, cookies, pies, crackers, chips. I did eat roast, peas, and brocoli. I was able to go for a couple walks during the Holidays. I did my best and it is my job to be happy about it. I feel tired as hell right now and I might post more later when I get rested.
I have been walking more and getting outside. I woke up and felt skinnier today. That is cool. I am trying to reflect on it. It is weird that I don't feel that much better about everything, but it is nice to be able to say. That I have put in the work and now I am seeing results. I ate turkey eggs fruit veggies yesterday.
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
I have to remember not to eat so much lean stuff. It actually hurts my stomach. I have been walking a couple miles a day. When I lift I work on bench and squats. I had a buddy tell me that I look skinnier so I will take that. I get to talk about my lo-carb experience to other people as well.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
I had one of my friends say that it looks like I lost weight. I also have some people asking what I am doing as far as I am losing weight. I am frustrated that I am still not ripped, but I am hopeful that if I work my butt off and don't relapse in attitude a year from now I will make real progress. I am able to help people as well to tell them what has happened to me low carb. Sometimes my stomach hurts because I think I don't get enough fat...I have other stuff to share about my low carb diet. This might help others and keep me motivated. At lunch I had chicken, shirmp and two servings of broccoli. Meals like that and just an attitude of sacrifice to be #1 day in and day out are going to help me have real progress and help me live a better life. More respect for myself and just good solid character building.
I walked 1.2 miles today and put max effort into lat pull downs. I even made a small video. I had the most rewarding feeling that I have had when my brooks brothers pants fit better. After the holidays most people got fat and can't fit into clothes, but mine became better. There were lots of times seeing cake and not eating it for this to happen.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
