Oh, morning BW was 211.0 today. SO CLOSE TO BEING UNDER 210.

Being under 210 is a big deal for me. Fuck. It may happen next week.

One day I'm finna ascend and be a CHAD

Next steps:
1) Get to 185lbs. Should be lean enough for abs.
2) Hop on a gram a test a week
3) Hair transplant and extensive facial plastic surgery
4) ???
5) Be anointed Lord MAC of Chadsbury and obtain occasional OLD matches
6) PROFIT

I think you should think long and hard before getting a "hair transplant" and "extensive facial plastic surgery." You obviously are extremely insecure about your looks but I think you look great. You're assuming that women are rejecting you cuz they think you're ugly, I don't think that's true, I think it's cuz they can sense that you're insecure as fuck and think that getting validation from women will be the key to a happy life. You oscillate between anger and resentment toward women and saying you're gonna give up again to being willing to have extensive surgeries to change yourself for them and think that will bring you ultimate happiness? Neither attitude is healthy. Tbh I think you've gotta learn to accept yourself as you are, keep doing what you've been doing and recognize you can be happy now as you work toward your goals. Resenting your own appearance or resenting women is guaranteed to end very badly, believe me.

Hahah, I think I may need to invent a #BritishHumour hashtag for you Sam.

But I do hope you are ok with my future title?

Lord MAC of Chadsbury has a good ring to it tbh.

Hell yeah man that sounds like a great title. Lol. Sorry I'm bad at detecting humor over text sometimes.
 
MAC may have been joking, but I thought the post was serious. So much gets lost in typing.

I know I wouldn’t have started the AA program if I didn’t already have a plastic surgery. Nothing “black pilled” or grim about wanting to be a little hotter.

The only facial surgery MAC would even benefit from is cheek fat removal, which you may not even benefit from after losing 20 pounds.
 
Thanks man, haha, I wouldn't worry about it, I drop some right clangers, it isn't the first time I've needed to explain I was joking and it certainly won't be the last ;-)

Though on a serious note, I think my appearance is getting better in recent times, people kind of respond a bit differently to me nowadays. I have noticed it. They're a bit nicer now I don't look like a total fatty.

I was doing some shopping for my Mum earlier and a lady behind the counter in B&M was very nice and kinda lookin' at me funny.

I have noticed shit like this the more weight I lose. It's flopping off nowadays.

Needless to say, captain MAC stood to attention!

(That means I popped another boner)

Offwego, good on you for looksmaxxing, I definitely think that's amazing, and I can think of dudes who got jacked through roids and this was genuinely why they got with as many women as they did, because they were J-J-J-JACKED! I should look better when I get shredded, I will just work with what god gave me naturally, I will build a fuck tonne of muscle over time and that will be me. I will get my fashion game on point too, it is shocking how important fashion is, like it's HUGE.

2 hrs of answering questions now boys, then gonna do my daily vocal workout to be able to sing like MattsCrib and play the guitar for an hour. I will then tinker around with editing my backlog of YouTube videos, go get my friend Dave and we will drink beer and laugh at things. We will also socialise with women and
 
Fuck man I weighed 209.8lbs.

I actually got to be under 210lbs.....

Just want to pause for a moment and be VERY happy about this. I was 248.8lbs when I started the forum, then I was stuck at 225lbs for a fucking hot minute, my coach from the group helped me get everything moving again, and damn dude the weight just began flopping off.

This is a major win for me. Really, it is. I honestly didn't think I'd see this day anytime soon, but it happened.

I will be 200lbs soon, fuck.

We are on the road to victory.

SAT 02/10/21 - MAC MEETS KYIL'S 5-STAR GENERAL - RADICAL

Hung out with the main man, the legend, the myth, the fearless General of the Kill Your Inner Loser community, RADICAL!!!

Radical is a total self-improvement legend, a complete wizard, he is a person who is the living embodiment of the pursuit of excellence, and his understanding of the male's self-improvement journey is oceanic in depth.

Having the opportunity to meet people like Radical can truly change your life, I was simply in awe of his passion, knowledge, and skillset around personal image, fashion, style, and becoming the embodiment of an elite male.

If you meet Radical or have the opportunity to be coached by him, you will learn a tonne! Also, you may not be aware unless you read his work and watch his videos, but this dude is very, very legit and is successful with women - he has an extremely cool persona and also we were whizzing through various dating pics on our phones, and of course I was laughing my head off at the amazing things Radical is doing in his dating life. Absolute stud.

I can safely say, Radical has imparted so much to me around the whole domain of image. He is a very bright dude had very thoughtful on his subject matter at many levels, it’s history, the psychology of fashion and image, aesthetics, symmetry.

And of course, the contribution he makes to running this community is truly exceptional and we are greatly indebted to him.

I have attached an image for this post as I will be saving this post to the OP of my log. I had the opportunity to do an in-person shop with Radical, which is one of the best investments you will ever fucking make, and we talked about all sorts of subjects. He was VERY insightful on my OLD profiles, and I am excited for the journey moving forward!

Me trying one some pieces as Radical and I swung through Oxford



My body is getting leaner and leaner, my style will get better and better, everything in life will become amazing.

It starts with Killing Your Inner Loser!!

Keep hammering,
MAC

BACK TO VLOGGING THE SELF IMPROVEMENT JOURNEY

I was rusty and forgot my external mic!

As such, I couldn't vlog with Radical like I wanted.

However, to tell the story of the experience, I captured my before (above), and will do a vlog tomorrow reflecting on lessons learned, the outfits, and capturing the OLD shoots tomorrow with my friends.

Yeah Radical's free style guide is so good, I can only imagine what you get with an in-person coaching session with him.

I am today years old when I discovered you're in Australia too lol

SUNDAY 03/10/21

1/5 approaches! A really lovely Asian girl exchanged with me, some of the approaches were so fucking fun today. I got MAJORLY stuck at approach 3 and my bros pushed me to get 2 more, fuck I couldn't get another one in. But wearing the clothes Radical advised me to wear, wow, it was SUCH a different energy from girls. They were giggly, happy, and like super nice and even though they were in a rush, they were kinda touchy and wished me a great day.

This is the product of hardcore self development. Girls NEVER spoke to me like this.

The Asian gal who gave me her number, oh my god, she was so sweet, so nice. ugh the way she talked to me made me feel so good. I just love the feeling when a girl is kinda receptive to me, I get this powerful feeling of love that just washes over me. She made me feel so good, ugh...I have texted her, I totally know they ghost and it's normal, but damn dude I just love it when they're nice to me.

One of our boys left to go work on his art, and then me and my dude from private coaching went for a beer.

We chatted to the family at the table over, they were some lovely American folks visiting their daughter in London I think, and this young lady offered to take some pics of us. She was so sweet, so lovely, she took a bunch of pics for us and chatted a little about cameras. My friend said, I'm surprised you didn't ask for her number - haha! If she wasn't enjoying time with her parents I would have.

Just the way she interacted with me was different from how women did a few months ago. Really, it is that noticeable. If I had my style and body absolutely on point 5 years ago I would have a wife by now, and have a bunch of kids. I am quite sure about that. If I could have met a lovely gal like this one a few years ago fuck me it would have been one hell of a life. But, still, I am only 30, and I am absolutely, absolutely going to go balls to the wall every single day of my life.

Did a shit tonne of pics with my bros, my bro from Andy's private group and yours truly have agreed to take OLD pics EVERY FUCKING WEEK until we have solid ass profiles.

Today we did a practice run.

Please help me boys, any tips are appreciated, help me find a wife and you can come to my wedding when it happens lol we will have the party of all parties.

So here are my pics from today, working with some of Radical's style recommendations.

Note, they are PRACTICE shots, I am a bit bummed about none of them being useable, I complained to my boy about it, but I made it clear, we will do this EVERY FUCKING WEEK until they are solid and we can start going on dates.

PRACTICE OLD PICS FROM TODAY

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lteJZLdLmUr-WWGuWdc5BB4EWUEvtpVG?usp=sharing

We are going to keep thinking, planning, and moving forward.

Your thoughts welcome!

I will keep working hard.

TimmyTurner Yo Timmy, wanna do some OLD pics in London next weekend? We can do them out on the towns and whatnot to get some social/nightlife photos.

They are better than what you have currently, did private group say nothing is useable?

Someone that knows how could easily edit one of these

They are def better than my currents bro!

I LOVE THE OUTFITS YOU RECCOMENDED!

I love your whole approach to style, it's great, and trust me, girls DID NOT respond to me like this before. It was a BIG eye opener. I am going to take all your recommendations dead ass serious and we will go all the way.

Private group haven't seen it yet, I only just uploaded, we will see what they say.

I am def down to use some of these to try, but know that I will actually be taking pics every weekend for as long as it takes. Weight is coming off every week bro, I am in the gym, I am going to keep hammering everything.

MAC
 
Id say 1264 is potentially useable, though be nice if you'd been shot portrait

1334 is good too i think

Shooting in direct sunlight that bright is not always advisable

Very happy to see you wearing the slim fits btw, i know you were hesitant given they had been too tight prior to recent weight drops
 
Styles looking good man.

Pretty much how I dress 90% of the time.


Agree with Radical.

Direct sunlight doesn't look quite as good as overcast or shade.

1264
1334

Are both good but to me they're placeholders. The stance isn't quite confident enough. Nor is the lighting good enough.

1396 is a good placeholder social shot. Stance isn't the best. And I'd edit the smile with FaceApp.

Get the guy operating the camera to shoot closer. You want to fill the frame.
Makes editing a billion times easier.
 
I like the ones next to the graffiti. Sunlight has a tendency to make most people squint which hides those gorgeous peepers of yours but they seem to come through in these. So proud of you man!
 
THANK YOU BROTHERS

I have went ahead and updated my OLD, I know these are placeholders and need work. There are no expectations of matches, I understand that won't happen for a while yet.

I got some good tips on the coaching group from Andy, I will talk to my friend from the group and plan the next shoot for this weekend.

Will keep nailing it :D

Oh, the Asian lady from the station yesterday has responded to my text, which is super positive! I will chat a little and ask her out for a drink, we shall see. Again, massive positive progress, 2 cold approach numbers have responded now, so this is very much new ground for yours truly.

MAC
 
Man remember those days when you did 100s (or was it 1000s) of approaches with virtually no numbers?

Welcome to progress. Now the clutch has reached biting point. Time to get into gear 2 ;)
