>ITT you tell what you learned from 2015

I began my journey to not be a fat fuck and I learned losing weight requires more reading than some college courses.

I was getting way too fucking much sugar. Everyone is. Added sugar is in fucking everything. Read 'dem labels boys. Some brands of hot dogs have just as much sugar as protein. "He has to be bullshitting" you think to yourself, No man. Read the cheap hot dog labels at the grocery store next time you go it's fucking ridiculous. The cheaper you go on some foods the more sugary filler you're getting. Your health is important enough to merit buying nicer food, but if you're getting rid of processed shit it may be better to just cut out hot dogs or visit a butcher for franks.

Look at this shit. http://www.sugarstacks.com/

You see that? You see how much sugar is in everything? Stop that. Cut that out. Eat less sugary shit if you're fat. Cut soda out, it's not worth it. If you do get sugar, be absolutely sure it's not "high fructose corn syrup". It's in fucking everything and it is killing you.

Many foods labeled "organic" have less added sugar too, so if you're really in the mood for something and all other brands have too much sugar check the label of the organic shit, it might be less.

If you get peanut butter get chunky peanut butter, many of the chunky varieties I've seen have vastly lower amounts of sugar, 3g per 2 tablespoons as opposed to 8g for the smooth shit. That can add up in a day once you cut out 40g sugar sodas HOLY SHIT I DRANK SEVERAL SODAS A DAY, STOP DOING THAT YOU WILL GET GOUT AND KIDNEY STONES.

I've been successfully keeping my sugar to no more than 19g per day and surprise surprise I'm no longer depressed, I'm losing weight like mad and I can drink black coffee without it tasting "bitter". Coffee isn't bitter. It's sweet. Once your body isn't fucking pickled with sugar you can enjoy things like dark chocolate or coffee again.

Join me in losing weight by cutting out the added sugar, fat guys. We'll make it together.

As much as I do appreciate the company here, it's really not the same as having someone go out of their way in real life just to hang out with you and actually care about you.

The only thing I feel when interacting with other people is that I'm wasting their time. I just want to make other people happy.

You're probably hanging out with the wrong people. Unless you're some weird ass dude (like a pedo furry who enjoys sticking glass into its anus), you'll find someone that will enjoy your company.

I don't hang out with anyone, at all. I just changed schools and I know absolutely no one and I hate hearing myself talk too much to start conversations with anyone. Even the only girl that really showed interest in me.

The more I think about it, the more hopeless I feel.

 No.84308

I had those same problems when I was at high school, my father's job required to constantly change from town to town. But things get much easier after you leave daddys house, trust me.


 No.84310

>>84306

I didn't, high school sucked for me. I wasn't properly bullyed or excluded, but I just hated it, I had no interest in spending time with my classmates, even though they liked me and wanted to come to their parties. I had some good friends from my home town that I visited regularly, that made my existence a little bit better. Some of them realized how needy I was and stopped seeing me.

But I know some things that I could have done on school that could've help me, such as playing a sport (I was pretty good at tennis, but after I moved, I never played it again), going to the parties my classmates went and participate on those events. My school years could be just as good as my life is today, but I was pretty self centered back then. I thought life itself was simply unfair to me. Don't let it happen to you, anon.

Also, sorry for the double posting. But yeah, after school, things get more clear and you'll have more opportunities.

I guess I have to grind through it and hope for the best. It's what works for me in everything else. The sluggish pace of it all is just killing me.

Like the others said, Latvia: Things will improve after school. School is simply a shitty environment, for too many people. It has a low tolerance for error, i.e. errors in your behavior are quickly detected, and yet you can get away with a lot before shit really hits the fan. Making it through it is just hard enough to be frustrating, but not hard enough to feel like a proper challenge, unless you're one of the 10% who really, really excel in school.

>I guess I have to grind through it and hope for the best.

You don't hope for the best. Everything life will ever give you are chances. It's up to you to take them. Hope for chances to happen, not for the good things.

Not exactly all of the from 2015 but it seems appropriate.

>Learned in the hard way how I'm a piece of waste if I'm not doing something slightly productive with my time and I become depressed after stopping these productive habits even for a couple of days

>Lifting "cured" my depression and helped with my image issues along with happiness through the purpose of lifting heavy shit for the sake of lifting heavy shit

>Bench Press is fun, but the thought of a heavy weight falling on my face drives me crazy and I feel anxious when doing it

>The Deadlift is the most productive exercise you can do if you want a healthier back and joocy glutes

>Shitty posture and carelessness are some of worse things you can do to yourself through your newbie journey Seriously, I'm the guy who fucked up his back some weeks ago and I felt horrible in the first 3 days of the incident, getting out of bed was horrible

>It's up to you to take them.

So what you're telling me is that it's really hopeless. I am in a sea of opportunities and potential, what drives me fucking insane is that I'm not using any of it whatsoever.

I spend a large majority of my day sleeping in classes and staring at walls because even my phone is inadequate - the audio jack is broken so I don't even have music.

I already have. I should have just gone to a trade school because college/university look impossible at this point. I skipped out a lot a couple grades ago and nothing makes sense a lot of the time.

You're probably drinking shit-tier coffee then. Get yourself a cafetiere and some roast ground beans instead of instant shite and I guarantee you'll notice a difference.

You are the only one who can ever truly look out for yourself and make the life you want for yourself. Just because something is hard doesn't mean it shouldn't be considered.

Part of being strong is being willing to bear heavy burdens, just figure out what kind of weight you want on your shoulders and then make something happen. We've all got precious short time here, don't waste yours.


 No.84455

>>84349

I actually wasn't thinking about having access to other people. Everyone has that. It's nothing special, and you can have a wonderful life even if you don't talk to every random stranger you meet. Some opportunities only present themselves once, though. If you find someone who really, really cares about you, then you'll know what I'm talking about. And then you should never let that person go.

That's the biggest reason I'm unhappy, I have no idea what I want (apart from love and lifting, obviously) and I can literally feel myself wasting time and letting way too many opportunities to pass.

Dating, creativity, original research work and socializing isn't hard anymore, it's unsurmountable and utterly impossible. The closer I get to accepting myself and having fun, the bigger the chance I'll just rip it out of my life and deny myself happiness again.


 No.84458

>>84457

I'm in the same position as you, my perspective though is that happiness should not be the goal of your life, it's fleeting and you will never find what you think you really want. I think What people in this situation really need is a sense of duty and purpose, men need to build things, make things better, and fight for something, this will in turn make you happy. If you're school is making you feel this way it's probably because it's fucking pointless, that's how it was for me at least. I don't know what to say beyond that, I don't know what will give you purpose.

I do try to divert myself with things like that, lifting, cleaning things, taking care of my boots and practicing general skills.

I've found that once you learn about the basics of programing, minor variations won't make much difference. Like 3x5 or 5x5, conventional vs sumo, high bar vs low bar… And those little things seem to be widely discussed on half chan.
