Hey guys I've been looksmaxxing for just about a year now and I'm 25 years old, 6'1 185lbs.
I'm going to tell you all a little tale.
It all started one chilly November night last year in my garage home gym, I was in a 3 year 'perma-bulk' with my main goal being to hit a 365lb bench press. My current weight, 270lbs. That night I was feeling unstoppable, stronger than any other human. I had the music blasting in my ears (a video game soundtrack like an autist), I just ate a giant meal a few hours before. Tonight was the night.. I was finally going to do it!
I load the plates onto each side, get under the bar and just as the epic video game soundtrack hit that perfect moment I lifted the bar, lowered it to my chest and raised it back. I did it!!! I finally did it! The crowd went wild and a bunch of girls came running up to me to be my girlfriend! finally!...... just kidding... nobody gave a shit. I mean why would they it means nothing lol.
I took off my headphones and it was dead silent. I was still the same fat ugly loser I was 45 seconds ago who ate like shit, didn't take care of his skin, never gotten a nice hair cut, played world of warcraft, wore oversized gildan shirts etc... I decided enough was enough.
I lost 85lbs, started eating in a deficit, started a basic skincare routine, started dressing better, got a haircut. I still have a way to go but I'm pretty happy with my progress so far.
Also if anyone has any advice id be happy to read it.
Here's a before and after picture
