Thanks, Men's Health, thanks for nothin'. According to your calculations and approximations i could use to lose 30-70 lbs. Jesus. Is that really my ideal weight? If it's muscle and it's 165 lbs. that would be hot. The last time I was under 155 lbs I was in middle school! I don't think I want to look like the guy in the picture. And by look like, I mean to have that oppressive white perfection about him. ARGH. It's like looking at the skinny bitches in the magazines. Peering back at you, taunting, and seeding rage.
As guys we're even absorbing the weaknesses our culture instills in women, i.e. self doubt and low-level self esteem the more metro- and homo- sexual we become.... When that change involves increased sensitivity.
Look at him. He makes you sick too, huh? i bet he's a nice guy... not the point. I would love to have a body that is ridiculous before my 30th birthday. According to Men's Health, it may be a while. lol. Damn, 70 lbs... I would look like a hot mess with my big ole head teetering on a pencil neck.
If I started lifting right now, i'd already have the density, I would just need to build muscle under it. I always start my weightloss with losing muscle. Inadvertently, of course, from "starving" my system of good fats and then not exercising to keep the weight off.
I get demotivated. I have plenty of body image issues. shit, we all do. However, my BII are of a more obsessive nature sometimes leading to acute panic attacks. For my friends, this manifests in fits of what looks like moodswings. it's nothing but a defense mechanism. I have never liked my body. It's not a sad story. I never learned how to love my body as many of us never do. I learned early on how to USE my body. How its functions can be exploited for enjoyment and pleasure. How my body could be USED to connect to others. I exercise this learned knowledge well. I revel in it. I really wouldn't change much. However, i would like to learn to love my body.
It is connected to every aspect of my comfortability in human interaction, public environments, one-on-ones, self, sex, etc. In order to get to the next level, i need to get past the physical aspects of my existence or at least connect more to that part of myself. It's debilitating in so many ways. Even discussing this is intense. There are other issues treading just below the surface that I hesitate to bring to life in this arena [closing off...]
