I'll decide again after 2 more pages of trolled/bad "advice".
dude, what are you talking about? probably 80% (way too generous of a guess here) of the entire human population are obsessed with their relations to the opposite sex. its not like its abnormal for him to be in that state.
i dont know who you are, though, so it could be that you dont belong into that group of people and are serious with what you said. in that case im all with you. a human being is defined by character, by its ability to reason, so giving basic animalistic instincts so much power in your decisions should be avoided.

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.
This.
Why do yo ucare what she thinks about you? You're clearly still stuck on her, when she couldn't care less.
Improve your situtation such that you can respect yourself. Don't bother with other people's opinions; yours is the only one that matters. If you like your bus and playing SC2, then you are happy with who you are, and that should be good enough for anyone.
iNcontroL nailed it from start to finish. She really doesn't care and nor should you. Don't engage in some kind of petty "look how well im doing without you" nonsense, if you wanna prove anything not giving a fuck is always a blow for exs. Anything you wanna change about yourself should be something you wanna do anyway, not something for a chance encounter with an ex. Continue your life like you do the rest of the year as if she ain't a major factor, because frankly she aint.

As always, iNcontroL offers blunt yet astute advice. Just move on with your life, don't take an unhealthy method of losing weight, commit to it for a long period of time and you'll be much better with your life. And yes, SC2 beta in 2 weeks. Hallelujah.
I am a insecure person. A year before now I was proud and respected myself. After a year I became in a bit of a slump, and not proud or happy with what I have become. Also makes me not want her, or anyone, to see this side of me until I am happy with it.
just ignore that bitch, maybe try for a quickie, serenade her possibly, you could also knock that bitch the fuck out and rape her, alternatively you can just ignore her.

So get your act together. You know the problem and the solution, so what's the hang up?

That is ok man but recognize the issue runs deeper than a 2 week fix. You put on weight, ok, take the initiative to lose it in a healthy manner. That can do WONDERS for your confidence.. but DON'T do it for HER because that will leave you as empty as before.. she won't give you the reaction you will want to make it "worth" it. Do it for yourself and if she notices "great" but don't let that be the end all be all. Go running in the morning, get a gym membership and hit that every other day. Watch what you eat (don't drink those energy drinks) and start socializing a bit. All these things will crush the insecurity over time and make you proud to be you.. loathing yourself and obsessing over a long gone ex is going to do nothing but make things worse.

It's like a case of Jekyll and Hyde haha, incontrol your advice is awesome. I vote the latter opinion though. I can completely understand your opinion because I can relate pretty well, but once you move on it is so much better for yourself.
Be skeptical of some of the criticism you're getting in this thread. Even if trying to look presentable to your ex is not the greatest reason to start a rigorous diet and exercise program (and it's not even obvious that it is, if you still consider each other good friends), if that's what it takes to get you to get off your ass and out the door then it's a good reason.

The problem with waiting until you are happy with yourself before "presenting" yourself is that you may not get there for a long, long time. I understand the sentiment of not showing your ugly self to the world out of a sense of pride, but hiding will also make it harder to change yourself - if nobody is going to see you, then why bother? I'm sure you have noticed this by now. Sometimes it's just better to be honest. If a visit from an old friend is inspiring you to get your rear in gear, then embrace the opportunity. Don't avoid it.
