For anyone who has used the gym as medicine and small progress story!

That's awesome man !! Is always good to hear that someone has been hitting the gym and getting some great " gains " as for me the day after my Ex broke up with me, I started to hit the gym. I've always been a skinny guy, I never had muscle even though I'm really athletic. (aaaaand Im ok at every single sport.) when she broke up with me I was devastated, I loved this girl, I remember the day that she broke up with me I texted her, " I love you. just thought you should know " so she breaks up with me and instead of begging her to come back and to work things out. I hit the gym. I change my diet completely, chicken and rice, fish and rice, fish and fish, chicken and more chicken. I go to the gym for 2 or 3 hours a night, 6 days a week. no more alcohol, no more soda, no more fast food, and no more shower beer ( take a beer to the shower and mellow out it was great ) During the weekends when I knew she was out drinking, I was at the gym until 2am, and sometimes 3am. Then I would go home and make some chicken and a protein shake. its been 3 months, my routine is pretty basic (still trying to get good form ) when she broke up with me I was 1442 lbs as of last week I'm 160 lbs. now I have to be honest with you all. The reason why I started to hit the Gym so hard it was because, I found out the guy she left me for is a big dude, I think he does some sort of power lifting or something. so me hitting the gym and getting muscles it was me trying to win her back. that at some point in life, when the universe stops playing pranks on me. she would come back to me and I would be in the best shape on my life and we would be back together and happy as ever.( she is never coming back ) but now that's not the goal anymore. My goal is just to live a happy life, and the gym really does help you with that. I'm happy, relaxed, and not to mention I sometimes catch that random girl staring at me. If it wasn't for the gym, I would of been a total disaster. I miss her a lot, and part of me still wishes that she changes her mind about us. but for now I got the gym to replace her, and I'm OK with that.
