Bulking should be done during winter when you don't want to go to the beach. Looking at your pics you haven't picked up much weight at all. As Wendy said, when bulking you WILL pick up weight. Think of it this way. With everyone pound of muscle you put on you increase your Basal Metabolic rate (the amount of calories you burn doing just nothing). Guys with more muscle mass lose the fat again during the ripping season a lot easier. Bulking is along term investment and you can really only see the fruits of your efforts after the rip session again. I sort of know how you feel though. But i think i just have issue all round. When I am cutting I just want to stop and bulk again because i think i look way to skinny. When i am bulking I want to stop because i think i look to fat. If i can give any advice it would be stick to it bud. I know it is tough but stick to it. And if it the end of the day it is more pain then fun then stop. No point in doing something you hate.

So, yes, that also means adding on fat and not just muscle, but in no way does that make YOU fat. You can certainly go on a clean bulk and not eat anything you see as unhealthy, too. You just eat more of the healthy stuff. From my understanding of eating disorders, you are never really "cured." You deal better, you develop better coping skills, but there might always be a little battle going on in your head. I know you don't want to a therapist, but if these thoughts continue to persist or get worse, I think getting some support would be a good idea. After all, bodybuilding is about health in all aspects--strong body, strong mind, strong spirit. During bulking, you NEED the calorie surplus to build muscle!

You really needed to unload. And some of that stuff is pretty deep....getting it down, especially for the public to see, can be pretty hard. FYI: I was very social in HS and now I'm not so much. But I have a family and a very busy life with work and school. So that's probably a lot of it. At any rate, keep at it, man. Life can only get better if you try and make it better. I have faith in you. Wow. You really needed to unload. And some of that stuff is pretty deep….getting it down, especially for the public to see, can be pretty hard.

It doesn't mean I'm interested, it means I'm friendly... and I don't think there's anything wrong with looking, as I think most people do. If YOU want to approach a chick, YOU do it... kinda like bodybuilding. Your bod isn't going to shape itself to what you want it to become, YOU have to put in the effort. Good luck with your goals, and honestly - get over that ugly ducking syndrome, because it's definitely not you now!

I still need to go back and read the rest but you just need to build up your confidence. Girls your age will wait to be approached by a guy so if you want one, go for it. The most they can say is no thanks, and if they do, which I doubt there's plenty more. Can you break your blogs into several blogs instead of one long ass one please?

I didnt get through everything. I plan to come back when I have more time. Here are my thoughts. You got a lot off your chest and should feel much better. The first thing you need to learn is to take a chance and go out on a limb. what is the worse thing that can happen? the girl says no. eventually one is going to say yes. Go after what you want. Believe it or not there are many girls that feel the same way as you do. Plus stepping on the limb carries over into so many other area of life. PS. Women use men just for sex too. It isnt necessarily a guy thing. Interesting read. I didnt get through everything. I plan to come back when I have more time. Here are my thoughts.

I'm gonna read it when I have some time, but it looks like a good read. Especially the finger in the arse part. I will provide some feedback when I finish.
