/From Robothood to Normiedom Progress Thread/
I'll start:
>quit drinking soda 6 months ago
>start lifting 2 months ago
>lose 30lbs
>6'4'' tall 210lbs today
>happier
>no longer depressed
>go on /fit/ now
>making good noob gains
>still no gf or friends
This could deliver some important info on how to leave robotdom.
So more stats are needed.
do you have a job?
How often do you go out?
What do you go out for?
what are your hobbies?
>>29930596
>convinced Im a robot
>realize I'm just a weak willed fuck and have convinced myself the world sucks
>circle jerk with a bunch of other people who have made themselves into losers
>realize r9k is basically satire even though people here genuinely believe the shit people post
>stop being a retard
>>29930636
yeah jus bee yourslef
>>29930635
do you have a job? Part time yes (in school)
How often do you go out? Very rarely
What do you go out for? To do drugs with my only friend
what are your hobbies? guitar, lifting.
I wouldn't consider myself a normie, just more someone who's largely always been unmotivated as fuck.
>Be me growing up.
>Always be better than average when it comes to picking things up.
>Couple that with a naturally high intelligence and strong curiousity and I'd say I was decently ahead of most of my peers when I was younger.
>Take these abilities for granted, and never really learn the importance of persevering though the struggles.
>As a result I always tended to just give up when things got tough.
>Began to realize the importance of pushing through, but it was too late and both high school and the first year of university were behind me.
>Neither went well thanks to my lazy ass.
>Never had a purpose, reason, or goal to do anything.
>Drop out of university and spend the next year or two thinking about my life.
I largely spend my time at the gym, going out now and again with a couple of good friends, reading, and doing the odd job.
I still have fuck all of an idea of what I want to do with my life, which drives me up the wall, but I've been playing with the idea of going back to school.
I would kill to have an epiphany about the direction I'd like to take my life.
>wanting to be normal
lol
btw not drinking soda and lifting isn't going to make you one of them. you're stuck like this for life
I'm so tired of being a robot
> Will go study abroad next semester
> Started lifting again over the summer
honestly I dont even care about a gf anymore at this point. I just want to lose my virginity and work on personal life goals. I plan on working as much on myself as possible.
GET THE FUCK OUT YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN A ROBOT AND NEVER WILL BE YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT REEEEEEEEE

>workout more consistently
Starting to feel better about life honestly.
>>29930596
>tfw
After losing all this weight turns out I'm a hungry skeleton with exposed ribs, hips and shoulder blades. I thought I had muscles, fuck.
I think I need a pullup bar but I don't want to wreck mummies door frames.
Local gym sucks btw, membership is outrageous and they have 1 (one) squat rack.
I'm just gonna keep jogging and see how bad me boney bones get.
>>29931145
I wanna save up to study a year in the US but im moving out soon.
I just wanna live in the US..
>>29931273
Personally, being regarded as intelligent by my peers growing up played a large part in making me more introverted.
I was one of those kids that other kids came to for help with their work. At first I had no issue helping people, but as time went on it started to wear on me, so I just started to shut up and push people in the direction of someone else.
I'm not calling myself an Apollo or a wellspring of knowledge and ability, I had my weak points like anyone. My upbringing played a huge part in explaining why, academically and intellectually at least, I was somewhat ahead of some if not most of my peers growing up.
>>29930596
Normies drink soda. You are just demoralized because you followed cookie cutter Internet memes like "if u fix urself da wurld will be better 4 u".
Self improvement is good, but the world is inherently, absolutely not fair, and that's the end of it.
>>29930596
I swear everyone is doing that
>eating healthy
>going to gym
So pathetic
>>29931260
>hold hands, hold girl
E-ENOUGH
I am lifting too. I think I am ugly but I secretly and fervently hope like a child deep down that I'm not. Relatively soon I will be in great shape. Will I... I want to hold girl so bad man it's not fair.
>>29931279
Start walking or running if you feel like it and gind smoke spots outside. It's pretty sweet desu
>Finished the semester with great grades
>Managed to get a girlfriend
>Started going to the gym again (stopped for 5 months)
>There's a BBQ at my place tomorrow with a bunch of my friends
>Still sad

>Still insecure
>Still paranoid
>Still inadequate
I don't understand this guys
>>29930596
>he thinks getting /fit/ cures autism
Wew lad, you're in for a rude awakening.
>>29931050
>thinks he's "better than average"
>thinks he's "naturally intelligent"
Sorry pal, you're actually just an autist whose parents told him he was "special" and "talented" as a child.
>>29932182
I made that image and post.
Thank you for your approval by reposting a screencap of it.I didn't actually draw it, I just put it onto a futuba orange background, and added a quote from a thread I found funny to make a neato background.
>Drugs
>Guitar
>Gym
>Friend
>Student
>Job
Sounds like you were normie all along but just fat
Getting fit cures so much mental shit. Better job than the best psychlogist faggot in the world. Its fucking entertaining
>>29932351
>tfw physical exertion is the only thing that gives me pleasure anymore
>>29932381
>at a literally minimum wage temp position because <company> needs more manpower to clear all of their shit out of an old warehouse they're moving out of and need to have clean for the landlord
>we're throwing out old racks, and while the other temps (normies, younger than me) are picking up small bundles of the lightest steel-wire components or a single i-beam
>pick up one >25lb i-beam on each shoulder and throw them like javelins from a dozen paces away from the metal recycling bin
At least I have this over normies, most only lift for looks
>>29930596
See, this is the thing; you can only do so much for yourself physically which will reflect onto your psychological state, but when it comes to friends and connections, you are flat broke, you have no starting point and you have no lasting friendships to work off of so it makes it nearly impossible to branch off and meet new people without being an autist with no friends who tries to brush away the question when asked "So what are your other friends like?"
It's so much more difficult without a long-term group of friends
>got a stylish ear ring
>make out with a girl every now and then
>don't answer my messages, tho
I'm getting there.
you were never a robot if you're trying to become a normie. You're just another failed normie, bitchboy
> Lift 5 days a week
> Reading more personal development books, less 4chins
> Delete old Facebook, going to craft myself a new online Normie presence
> Start working to overcome social anxiety with conversation threading, affirmations
> Eating right, no excess sugar, no drugs, no alcohol
> Get invited out to party by co-workers
> Get drunk enough that I actually enjoy myself
> Talk to qt

Fuck you autistic fucks, I'm getting out of this hellhole.
>>29932762

>>29932762
>lifting 5 days a week

My life has been

Anything's possible I suppose
>>29932798
I applied to school and found out this girl went there last year, and will be continuing there

>>29932892
God bless robro, change is possible, change can happen, change will happen.
>>29930596
Does anyone have that image with one side a robot hating his lifestyle and the other side with that robot having become a normie, wanting to go back?
>>29931992
Dude I'm 22 and finally coming out of cocoon mode. It felt so great, felt so natural. Naturally, I was rock hard the whole entire time because I've never had this much intereactions with a girl.
I literally never felt happier. I-its time for me to leave robothood guys.
>>29932124
I think that's called having real depression senpai
>>29933011
>unironically doing a brosplit
How long have you been lifting?
>>29932947
Same here
>I am shy, sarcastic sense of humor. Never speak to anyone outside work
>somehow get a gf, gain confidence
>fall in love
>she breaks my heart
>repeat
>>29933215
Not long, why?
>>29933165
We'll be here when she breaks your heart and you end up more bitter than ever.
You won't believe me when you read this, you'll assume she's different and it won't happen to you, but it will. Enjoy your fun while it last anon.
>>29933165
I wish you luck family just don't slip up now
>>29930596
>still no gf or friends
watch this video "no gf" faggots
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kf9sZqgvMow&index=7&list=WL
>>29933233
You'd be better off on a fullbody routine 3 or 4 days a week. I say this as someone you wasted 2 years on splits.
>>29933165
kek. I was in your position a year ago until a girl I loved crushed my heart and my confidence dropped a fuck load. Can't be bothered to post story but bottom line is while dating her felt really good once the times are over and she turns into the vilest bitch you've witnessed you won't feel good no more.
It's definitely a great thing to find out how social you are after believing you were an autist since forever, but women will just never be worth it. They are bloodsucking whores by nature
>>29933297
>MGTOW

You guys are the vegans of sex.

>tfw robots have experienced the same shit
It's nice to know I'm not he only one
Why do lanks think they can be robots
>>29930596
Coincidentally I just started lifting today. Hopefully I will be able to make some decent gains by the end of the year.
>>29933334
Why is it better? You're lifting each body part the same amount of times per week. What difference does it make?not trying to say you're wrong, I'm genuinely curious
>>29933273
>>29933283
>>29933350
Well I'll just enjoy it for now before she throws me under the bridge. I'll be back here, I know.
>>29933374
yeah man it hurts, but I'm glad I got to experience the shallowness of women or else I would never have learned my lesson. I've been on 4chan since like 2007 and always read shit anons say about women but always thought they were just bitter virgins until I got to experience it first hand.
Women are irrational beings who's actions are steered by overbearing emotions, exterior self gain and pleasure. I'm a fucking swede and got so fuck bullshit about feminism fed to me that I actually believed it until I actually started talking to women. Fuck them
>>29933438
On a 3 day full-body routine you'd be hitting each muscle group 3 times a week instead of your current 2 and resting 4 days gives your body more time to recover so you don't overtrain and impede your strength development.
>>29933512
Hmm, would that still apply if I'm training to put on weight? I'd like to be 30-40 pounds bigger
>>29933644
Yeah lad, as long as you're eating above you're TDEE, you'll gain weight.
>>29933423
You make gains really fast as a noob. Thats what gets people hooked i guess.
Once you start seeing the gains you will love it forever.
>>29934075
Gracias. I have a scale weight to weigh food, and I use myfitnesspal to track calories, but I feel like the exercise tracker isn't accurate to how many calories are burned. Anything else I'll need to start putting on muscle?
Op here:
>tfw couldt even do a single push up before i started lifint
>tfw i can do 6 in a row now
Its not much.. but im really happy.
>>29934243
I already like having something to do other than playing vidya. The neet life gives me too much free time.
>>29934602
The gym is perfect for you then.
When you start looking decent you will probably want to get out of the NEEThood and become a productive member of society amirite?
>>29930596
>be kv with no friends at the end of freshman year of uni

>head up eye, keep eye contact

>become friends with girl from lab

Jump forward 2 years, and I've basically become a normie. I've had other gf's and one night stands. Made a lot more friends.
Life can be great, guys. Please don't give up.
>>29934786
heh maybe:^)

>>29930596
I'd write my story but you'd all say "GTFO NORMIE"I'm still a robot
>>29931523
Fuck off Pablo, we're full
>>29930596
why would anyone want to be normal?
>>29935373
You should just start doing drugs again. The only think that makes sense
I was able to shop a few times in the past couple of weeks. It's so stressful for me, I get so anxious. I need to get a job soon to help my family, how can I possibly work? I mean I can barely go for a walk around where I live because I'm scared those people will see me.

>>29931317
do physical labour. you get paid to work out essentially.
yeah it's not as effective but it's better than nothing and $$$$$$$$$
>>29938454
problem is that it gets tiring so fucking fast. when you get home, all you want to do is collapse. it's miserable.
>>29938471
maybe volunteer at a community center if youre into sports? they must have work our equipment there
>>29938454
I already have a sweet robot tier job and don't want to jeopardise it.
>>29930596
Thank fuck god op, desu I don't consider you a normie until you browse reddit more than once a month. Raids being the exception.

I feel good robots, but i'm far away from being a normie.
Maybe i should give tinder a try and join some club.
Found a group who plays D&D in my city over the interwebs. I will contact them. Always wanted to play it with a group of friends and i could learn to socialize.
I would be the chad of the group.
>>29938794
Sorry for the ant image.
>>29931279
Stop acting like a nigger.
What gets me depressed is the realization that I could very easily become an average kind of guy. In terms of money and social connections. But it's just not in my genetic fate to be one of the top elite. I will never be Chad, and that kind of makes me not want to try at all.
This is my last night here robots. I was once a normie but fell off a few years ago, i've decided to pick it back up again. I wish you all the best.
>>29938454
I work physical labour. All you want to do is eat shitty food after work. It's a fucking intense craving, more than someone who doesn't do hard physical labour can imagine. So you bulk up but still look like shit.
>>29938955
What a fucking baby.
Not original, big surprise.
>>29930635
>do you have a job?
Full time, benefits, hourly
>How often do you go out?
About twice a week.
>What do you go out for?
Drinks or sushi usually, sometimes I go to ssbm tournaments but that's somewhat separate from my normie life.
>what are your hobbies?
/v/, /lit/, gardening
Lets be honest here, none of us are going to make it.
Soda will probably be remembered as one of humanitys worst inventions ever. Diabeetus in can.
>>29938955
this means you are a narcissist
