Not so much. Which is why I'm going to get the squat rack in the next couple of weeks when it goes on sale.Quagmire911 said:
"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.

"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.

Excellent, make sure and get some more weights so it is more than 200lbs.KarmaSutra said:
It is more crucial at this stage to do weights, fat loss will be getting harder and you want to maintain as much muscle as possible. I think you knew that already though.
Keep it up. Blood work getting better? Or have you not been back...

I plan on picking up an extra 200 lbs. Fvck, the weights cost more than the rack.
I appreciate all of your input brother.

I can't keep doing nothing at home so I've grabbed Mrs. K, Li'l K, My Dad and drug them to the new YMCA just built up the road from us.
All new equipment and I can get Mrs. K back on track. My Dad is living with us now so he can get back into working out.
All in all this is the best thing for all of us. And I don't have to worry about all of the muscleheads who take up the squat rack and stare at themselves all day.
Get in, do my sh!t, get out.

You had any more blood work done? How much better are you feeling? What happened to the home gym?
Keep it up.
Keep it up.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Dedication and perseverence brother.HandyAndy said:
Those are the two mystical secrets.
You have to want to change. The change will not happen overnight so don't fvck yourself into believing you'll rub a magic lamp and shed 30 lbs in a week. Make yourself a realistic goal. Get smart about what you put inside of you and then move your ass!
I'll help you with a meal plan and workout routine if you want.
Do yourself a favor and be honest about your dedication to the process. It will pay off dividends if you keep focused on your vision.
I'm living proof.

Cool, can't wait to see the results.KarmaSutra said:
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I've allowed complacency to infiltrate my goal. My Dad is going through some serious health issues and he's now living with us.
This is no excuse whatsoever. I hold myself completely accountable for slacking but I do have to make sure he's in good health.
I'll be back on track soon enough Brother.
