Reply to comment by kbrk21 in [story] I (M28) started a job as a nighttime security officer in January 2022, changing my lifestyle which made me gain some weight. After trying my short-sleeved uniform from last spring, I’m only now realizing how bad it’s gotten, not able to button a single button. Need to start to reverse this. by MisterOwl_94
That’s nuts if true. Had no idea there was such a thing. SMH.

These are Indian bodybuilders from the early 20th century. You can go a long way without using drugs.

Hey man if it gets rough, and you need a slightly drunk American to talk to about it, hit me up. Serious.

Well, everyone who sees this and tries to give you advice is pretty much a hypocrite, but yeah, I do find that if I actually put my tablet down and do some of the hobby stuff I spend so much time looking up, I do get a lot more done, but sometimes it is nice to chat a bit about common interests and that can be a little motivational, just seeing there are others into the same stuff. All I can suggest, hypocritically, is to limit yourself, set time restrictions or when you catch yourself maybe looking up something about a hobby, just stop, and actually do it. Going to do that right now actually.

But without HGH and steroids. People keep forgetting that part.

I have definitely felt the same way. For me I think it is the lack of mandatory routine on the weekends that the work week provides. The best the thing I have found for me is to keep as much of the morning the same as I can and do one productive thing as early as possible. Then I don't feel like I completely "wasted" a day.
The next best thing you can do is give yourself a break. Realize that you did your best during the week, and not being perfect everyday is fine, maybe even better for other parts of your life.

I hope not. I hope you can find happiness in life. Or at least peace. I'm not qualified to advise you, certainly not to judge. Please think of those that love you. I don't know if you're a parent, but you're certainly a child of someone. I've always heard parents say, "I'd die for my child! Or I'd kill for my child!" And I always think, sometimes the hardest thing is to live for your child. Don't know if this relates, don't know why I said it. I wish you the best.

If everyone calls you trash and everyone treats you like trash, why don't you just become trash?

This is my story. I dread monotony. I have visions of spontaneity and believe in my core that I’ll choose well without the pressure of a schedule. Unfortunately, without a schedule, I dawdle and loose hours doing absolutely nothing. As much as I hate it, I function very well in a schedule. In order for me to remain productive, I have to schedule my days off as well

Honestly, I think it's fine at have a break at weekends. Running at 100% all the time is a sure-fire way to burnout.
All I'll say is be conscious of your downtime and uptime. Don't let yourself fully sacrifice your commitments in your downtime. I find it's much better for your mental health.
Also, you can be different kinds of productive on the weekends.
