I'm Back!

[Robertrogo]

Hey All,

I know I have been away from the JEFIT Website and Forums for a while but these past 2 weeks have been the hardest 2 weeks of my entire life (I have experienced death in my family and such before) but some personal issues have happened where I was the victim in my relationship and had to make some very tough decisions in my life to move on with my job and career here at JEFIT and potentially lose my best friend and the love of my life due to choices that she has made. I don't want to get into specifics and details but right now I am in a very depressed state as I have nothing in my apartment at all except for a TV, TV Stand, Xbox, lots and lots of food, a lawn chair and getting my mattress and such as well. It has just been rough these past 2 weeks and I haven't been in the zone I should have been in for JEFIT, I was getting work done at JEFIT but not focusing upon the website and being here in the community but now I am back and ready to get this forum back into the shape that it should be again and I apologize for being away for the time that I was.

Any motivation to help move forward from you guys would be greatly appreciated because I am officially on my own, with my family in NY, 9 hours away and the only people I have are my boss and fellow friends/coworkers at JEFIT and never experienced something like this before and has been a very depressing 2 weeks that is for sure.

But I am just glad to be back on JEFIT and back with my fellow JEFIT Members and Friends.

Hope everyone enjoyed a fantastic and relaxing Labor Day Weekend!

-Robert

Thats not good man had similar things happen to me which kinda resulted in me properly starting weightlifting
only things i can suggest are try to keep busy and positive if you let it takeover you you will basically go under
use the gym to take out any frustratioms etc
and fish oil suppliments can help improve your mood boost seretonin etc
good luck

I was wondering where you had been!

Sorry to hear about all that man. Sounds like it's been a rough couple of weeks. Material things aren't the most important, but at least you have the TV and Xbox. Everyone says it and right now you may not believe it, but it will get better. How quickly is entirely up to you. I'd start focusing in on the things you like to do (gym, design, etc). Use the negative energy to your benefit. I know when I'm ready to give up, I think back to high school and the people that pushed me around. I use that to help propel myself to the next level.

Like the redcoat said, you can use things like fish oil and b vitamins (niacin specifically) to help get you out of the rut. They surprisingly work wonders. http://www.livestrong.com/article/70...ts-depression/

Thanks guys I truly appreciate it, it has been very rough and a hard time because I was completely deceived and lied to, pretty much feeling like an absolute fool for 4 years and the person I thought I loved completely changed and stabbed me in the back but what can you do.

Can't dwell on the bad things and be brought down with that person, need to focus on my career, my life and make things better for myself and all of your support means alot to me and I can't thank you all enough.

Actually went to the gym last night and saw some pretty cute girls that were staring at me and smiling which of course makes you feel good haha. It can only get better and go uphill from here and just learn from the mistakes.

Just going to keep going to the gym, get my apartment in order, save up some money, get the things that I WANT and NEED for myself and not waste money on foolish garbage and enjoy life for what it is worth because life for me since I was 10 was a struggle and this just puts a damper on it as well but with the support of my friends here at work and here on JEFIT, it means alot.

Worst of all though, tomorrow is my birthday ahah but its all good, going to have the best birthday of all and pre-order Gears of War 3, pick up some 360 games, go out with people from work and hit up the gym.

Again thank you guys and I appreciate the support and now can focus absolutely and completely on JEFIT and improving the website and application for all of you guys!

Well if they were staring at you smiling either a) they thought you were good looking or b) you had a booger hanging out.

I'm all over GoW3 and MW3! It's gonna be a lazy...er I mean good winter!

That's 1 of the bad things about going a tiny gym, no girls apart from the occasional 40 year old!! haha

It's all about assassins creed 4 and Fifa 12 for me!

[Robertrogo]

Hahah well you cant beat the occasional 40 year old, that is if they are good looking of course heh

Damn Assassins Creed 4, i completely forgot about that haha but no MW3...pshhh looks the same to me, not hating on MW3 but im all Battlefield 3 right now and Gears 3 especially since the office here at JEFIT plays Bad Company 2 and i play Gears 2 every Friday with my uncle, cousin and his work buddies, hording and 5 v 5.

Plus today is my birthday! Woohoo, 23 years old..... time flys when your working that is for sure

Well what is now awesome about this situation is that I am now back in the gym and getting on schedule, got my gears of war 3, got a membership to planet fitness and everything so getting my routine back in check but recently I have come to find out that of course my ex-girlfriend of 4 years, 2 days after we broke up possibly starting dating the drug dealer that she was talking to, so of course now that makes me feel like shit and now spewing stuff out saying I am a horrible person, worthless and a bunch of other nonsense (which is of course the result of the drugs or whatever she is on) but honestly in my head I don't understand how women (Not saying all) but certain ones that you give 4 years and everything to, do everything for, spend money on a whim, focus on the future and do EVERYTHING in your power to keep happy and turn into heartless bitches and talk behind your back after everything you have gone through.

Was doing phenomenal for about 2 weeks then get told this by a few friends that she is now talking shit behind my back which of course bums me out but whatever, going to the gym for 3 hours a day after work and on the weekends, I have dropped 10-15 pounds and back down to 180lbs but put on alot of muscle and my six pack and everything else is coming back which makes me feel great and actually thinking about training for competition, focus on myself and get new tattoos.

Sorry for rambling guys but I just don't get women and get people that are supposed to "love you" after all that you have been through and all that I have given up for another individual haha..... life is just a rollercoaster of happiness and shit and just gotta make the best out of it

Actually went to the midnight launch of Gears 3 in Cary, NC where EPIC games headquarters is located and met some developers and got my game signed by a few guys, pretty tight
