skinny yes- ugly no . I was 6'1 165lbs when I graduated. While I was quite skinny it was more of an athletic basketball type build. I've always had the ability to be lean very easy, if you guys knew how bad I eat while still being able to see an outline of abs you wouldn't like me too much. That said I was always obsessed with getting "big" and was never truly happy being skinny. The low point for me came in 98-99 I was suddenly a dad and stopped playing all sports and going to the gym, by feb 99 I was at an all time low. I was 6'1 180lbs and didn't even have an outline of muscularity to me. This was a combination of being depressed in a dead-end relationship, having to grow up overnight at the age of 22 and become a dad, and 1.5 years of sitting on the couch and eating bad food. Shortly after my Broncos won the super bowl in 99 I decided to get my life back on track and regardless of how unhappy I was in certain aspects of my life, I was no longer going to allow my physical appearance to be a cause. In about 1 year I looked very good and about 1 year after that I looked great in my opinion. I went from wanting to be like guys I saw in the gym to actually becoming one of those guys. I'm obsessed with my physical appearance and I'm obsessed with the attention my physique can draw from the opposite sex. Yeah I workout for me, but I'm not going to deny for one second I dislike the attention that comes from being in shape. I've posted these once before but I'll post them again so you guys that may not have seen these can see how far I came in 2 years
