first off. i’m sorry for the picture of a computer screen but access to reddit on my work computer isn’t possible and I can’t email outside of our system….I was testing Copilots “quiz me” and wtf kind of question is this? AND HOW DID IT TELL ME I WAS WRONG?! also. NOTE THE HINT IT GAVE ME
I guess I'll start with the basics: I'm a 34 year old guy, 6'0", 255 lbs, and I'm just looking for some help, suggestions, or honestly a kick in the ass....anything that might help.
I've wanted to lose about 30 pounds for a while now, but I can't seem to find the motivation to stick with it. I know some people will read that and say, "You either want it or you don't," and I understand that mindset. But what frustrates me is that I'll spend hours making a diet plan and a workout plan, and then the very next morning, when it's time to start, I stay in bed instead of getting up to walk. Or I eat whatever I want anyway. Or I skip working out after I get home.
The worst part is that this time last year, I was doing amazing.
From January 2025 to July 2025, I was in a rhythm. I was genuinely excited to get up and work out before work and then work out again when I got home. I was eating well, training five days a week, and still walking on my two off days. I lost about 30 pounds and felt better mentally and physically than I ever had in my life.
Then I lost it.
I honestly can't even explain why, because I don't know. I stopped working out, went back to eating the way I used to, and gained all the weight back almost as fast as I lost it.
Since then, I've tried to find that drive and motivation again, but I just can't. I'll work out for a day or two, then start skipping workouts or eating like crap again. I'll tell myself, "Today's just a rest day. I'll pick it back up tomorrow."
I think the hardest part is that I already know I can do this, because I WAS doing it. And honestly, I think that's what depresses me the most.
Now I feel like crap all the time, and I have no motivation to do anything. I'm not an emotional person, but it's hard not to beat myself up every single day and tell myself what a piece of shit I am because I can't even make myself work out or eat better.
I feel like having a workout partner would help hold me accountable, and I think that's part of what got me started last year. I was working out with a coworker until he took another job. My work schedule makes it tough to find someone to work out with unless they're on the same shift as me, so if anyone has found other ways to stay accountable, I'd love to hear them.
I've even thought about making TikToks documenting my weight-loss journey because maybe having some kind of audience would force me to stay accountable. Like, if people are watching, I'd have to stick with it instead of letting everyone see me fail. But at the same time, the idea of putting myself out there like that absolutely terrifies me.
So I don't know. Do you guys have any advice? If you've been through something similar, what helped you finally just say, "Screw it, I'm doing this"?
I want to do this for me. I really do. But damn, it's hard. And what makes it even worse is that I don't even feel like I have a good excuse.
wonder what his thoughts were on a white pilot with a black copilot? I feel like i’ve outdone myself with this one
put some different cars in the 1 case I have for the moment, had to get a pic of all the Double Mint stuff together too, wish the 1:64 was auto’d like the others!
It’s sellers who use the words “vintage” and “rare” as if they mean the same thing. Every other listing is something like: “RARE VINTAGE JEFF GORDON DIECAST!!!”
And then it’s a mass-produced diecast from 1995 that was sold in every Walmart, Kmart, souvenir trailer, truck stop, flea market, and gift shop in America. It’s vintage. Congratulations. It has successfully survived 31 years. That doesn’t make it rare.
Some sellers seem to think rarity works like dog years. Once a diecast turns 20 years old, it magically transforms from “common” into “ultra rare collector’s item.” That’s not how rarity works. A diecast can be old and common. A diecast can be new and rare.These are completely different things.
The fact that something was made during the Clinton administration doesn’t automatically mean there are only six left on Earth….and before someone says it, yes, I know this isn’t just a NASCAR thing. Every collecting hobby has people trying to turn “old” into “rare” because “old” doesn’t justify asking $300 for something that sold 40,000 units.
If your main evidence that an item is rare is that it was made before YouTube existed, you probably don’t have a rare item. You have an old item. There’s a difference.
my obsession with making yall upset continues into another week
at least Denny broke his Kings Hawaiian Curse
if thats a legit sale. someone got the deal of a lifetime.
how fast 1 or 2 people can ruin an entire lobby by wanting to wreck every car in sight. i’d like to thank my parents for showing me enough attention growing up that I didn’t search for it in wreckfest lobbies from grown men. seems to me if that’s what their goal was they’d be better off downloading grindr
