So after about a year, my ex is coming back home for a week to see her parents. We have been really close ever since high school, and shes currently getting her masters in science.

Over the passed year shes:
- moved on
- moved in with a new boyfriend.

I've:
- gained about 30 pounds
- grown a double chin
- moved into a bus rv outside of my parents house(my dad calls it "failure to launch")
- won 24 cans of monster energy drink from Starcraft 2 CEVO(yay)

Ive got 2 weeks to look like less of a fat slob. So far every day since I heard of her arrival I've been going for runs.

I need help! I've thought of

1. Do some crazy 2 week work out and diet.
2. Wear lots of heavy clothes to conceal my new round figure.
3. Pay my pretty lady friends to pretend they are my girlfriends.
4.Pretend I won't be home for the week and hide in my bus.
5. Download and install WOW to drown my sorrows.

Any advice, words of encouragement, or even negative trolling is appreciated.

INT. PARENT’S HOUSE – DAY

Meet CheAse. His life isn’t going exactly as planned


Dad frowns as CheAse rifles through the fridge in his underwear

DAD
This isn’t just a failure to launch,
it’s like the god-damned Challenger explosion all over again.

CHEASE
(with a mouthful of food)
Get off my case, Dad


CheAse lugs the armful of snacks out the front door to his trailer home

VO
But this summer, he’s going to get one
more chance with the girl who got away


INT. GIRL’S DORM – NIGHT

On phone:
GIRLFRIEND
Yeah, I’m coming home over break, I’d
really like to see you again. You know, to
catch up. We’ll always be friends, right?


VO
Now CheAse has two weeks to go from
zero… to Hero.


INT. GYM – DAY

CheAse hits the gym, falls off the treadmill in exhaustion and flops onto the ground. Two attractive girls walk past, giggling.
CheAse
I, uh, dropped a contact


VO
But sometimes it’s not about what you
look like, it’s about who you are inside


EXT. NIGHT – GIRLFRIEND’S HOUSE

As it rains:
CheAse
But Amber, I love you!


Amber looks out the window, crying, before slowly closing the curtain. CheAse falls to his knees.

CheAse
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


VO
This summer, learn to fall in love
all over again…


EXT. CHEASE’S TRAILER

LARRY
Look CheAse, you’re my best friend, but
this is crazy! What do you think is gonna
happen? She doesn’t love you anymore.

CheAse
You’re wrong. She does love me, and I’m
going to prove it, no matter what.

Larry
She’s getting married in two days, cross
country. You’ll never make it man. Face
it, you’re going to be a lonely internet slob
forever.

CheAse
You’re wrong. You’re all wrong!


EXT. HIGHWAY – DAY

CheAse speeds along the highway, airdrumming to AC/DC’s highway to hell

INT. CHURCH – DAY

Amber and Bruce stand at the altar, smiling, when CheAse busts through the door.

CheAse
I OBJECT!


Congregation gasps.

Why do you care what your ex thinks? Although if she is your inspiration to work out and improve your life then yes I'd say go do all that.

Just remember it's your choice whether you want to see her or not. Also, you sound like you're trying too hard, she's moved on and now might be a good time for you to start thinking about the same.

In 2 weeks the most you'll lose 2-3 pounds of fat. All the other weight you will lose is just waterweight, and will not affect your outer appearance.

Just stop worrying, and whip out your 1 eyed sea dragon. She can make comments about that instead.

Edit: Is thata tatoo on your profile of starcraft real? XD if so i like it :D

pretend you're someone else and have nothing to do with the guy she knows. that way it wont put him in a bad light.

or if you really care about losing that much weight so fast do some UFC-style weight cutting

I don't know how much two weeks of training is gonna do. Maybe you should take a little pride in yourself and how you look and start living healthier and working out for yourself instead of your ex's.

I checked out TL Health and Fitness Initiative 2010, some really good info, but right now I've got 2 weeks of panic.

I know I shouldn't care this much about my ex, but the truth is I am quite insecure. Plus right now I'm kind of ashamed of how I look. I have kinda let myself go over the past year at school.

edit: The picture in my profile pic is not real unfortunately =( . But it was pretty baller at the time as a fake.

You can always take the unhealty route and starve yourself. Do you really want to lose weight that fast?

Don't see her if you feel bad about yourself. Tell her you're busy but you'll make it up to her next time. Then work out so you don't feel like shit about yourself. I would say it takes at least 3-6 months to see any serious improvements.

I def won't be starving myself. A long time ago when I was working really hard to get into shape I ended up fainting because I worked out too much with too little food.

My best advice would be to make a good attempt at getting yourself back on track health wise and maybe deal with the whole trailer in the back yard thing if economically feasible. If she has moved on and has gotten a boyfriend etc. then I wouldn't be super concerned about what she thinks of you. I know its a pride thing, but sometimes its good to face reality. How can you find a newer, better girl if you are ashamed to see the old one who already knows you? Basically don't worry about the ex, you obviously want to improve yourself, why not do it for yourself instead of the girl that got away?

In 2 weeks all you can do is lose water weight -- which, granted, can actually make you look really good. If you're serious about this then eat only vegetables (no carbs at all) and lean meats (no red meat, just chicken and fish). No rice, no bread, no pasta, no sugars, no soda, no salt, no butter. Just straight up veggies and chicken/fish. Run 30 minutes a day. Then do circuit training -- push ups, situps, squat thrusts should cover most of it.

But I say drown your sorrows on WoW :D lol.

You must either be terribly and insecurely pathetic (find a higher motivation, please) or a really good troll.

I'll decide again after 2 more pages of trolled/bad "advice".

1. move.
2. the
3. fuck
4. on.

She is long gone.. a year and she lives with a guy? Common man. Freaking out and trying to lose weight in 2 weeks won't reverse the fact that you STILL haven't moved on and that you live in a bus. That doesn't exactly exude attraction with girls... she isn't going to dump her roommate/boyfriend and declare that she is getting back with you out of pity... that never happens man.

2 weeks? beta will be back. Ignore her and drink those energy drinks playing sc2 in your bus.
