i also added a wife, a mortgage, and a kid, and I’m not even 30 yet. I also learned how to “get a haircut you damn hippy”

On the up side, you no longer look like a wannabe boy band member.

Or a crackhead. Seriously everyone thought I was on drugs. I was actually just really active and I didn’t eat much. On the upside every little old lady I knew wanted to fatten me up and made me good food.

There’s a good chance.  Mortgage and kid should give it a nice color, too.

Hair is the last bastion of youth I’ve been able to hold on to.

The “After” picture is backwards. Not only are the words in the background reversed, the bump on your nose is on the other side. The half smile was also backwards. FTFY.

Oh I’m gonna be bald. Not happy about that. The kid on the left  LOVED his hair.

Same here re: bald, not much graying yet just past 40, but my dad was fully gray before 40, so I might be on thin ice.

A year or so ago I was setting up a video conference for some people at work and saw the top of my head via the webcam and said out loud “What the fuck?”. People in the room were like, “what, what! Are you ok!?” I’m like, “no I’m not ok! L ook at how thin my fuckin’ hair is on the top of my head!” Everyone chuckled, I haven’t been able to stop looking at it or worrying about it since.

I’ve kicked around hair plugs, but I will probably just cut it short. I keep threatening to buzz it, but my wife doesn’t want me to.

That’s what my Dad did. He used to have pretty shaggy hair but once he started balding he just buzzed it and he’d had to that way for at least the last 20 years.

I do like my beard. It’s only been growing about a month now. It  does a good job of hidding how soft my jaw line has become

Gee thanks, I’ve been 150-155lbs since High School (22 years). If I eat more I just poop more. It’s impossible for me to gain weight. I can eat ice cream every night and my body just flat out refuses to store fat. I think I’d look a lot better at 170 though.

It’s hard. My knees hurt to much to do most of the sports I used to love, I work 45+hours awesome, and snacking makes my mostly desk job less terrible.

I’d like to get down to like 180 again, but that ain’t gonna happen. That’s about where I was when I got married and it’s probably the strongest and healthiest I’ve ever been.

Have you tried protein bars? They are usually loaded with carbs, and well protein. Could help with gaining weight. At one point I was in your shoes and I put on nearly 25lbs in one summer. I was into parkour at the time so I ate, and trained, and ate, and trained and ate and trained.

The habit of eating a lot stuck, the parkour and training didint. Whoops

My bro in law was also in your position and he started lifting, and eating, a lot of fatty carb filled, and protein rich foods. Put on 30lb over a year or so and looks a lot better for it.

and about 40 lbs.  I had a rough year this year putting on weight.  Working to reverse that so I can have my jaw line back.

I think I gained at least 15 lbs this year. Going from hourly worker to store manager has been big change. More stress, and less physical labor.

I’ll be 41 in a few days. Thankfully my knees are fine, but I do have occasional back issues due to muscle tightness (due to too much time sitting at work, and otherwise). Snacks abound at my workplace, too, and my lunch choices are usually less than healthy. I get exercise walking/hiking with the dogs, coaching basketball, and working around the house, but definitely need to add more. I carry a lot of muscle, but need to shed extra “padding” that I’ve had for what seems like forever. There’s no way I’d ever see 180; 200 would be awesome, though. I’ve never been in great physical shape since I was a little kid... have always carried an extra 15-25 lbs. I really need to get there at some point in my life! Good goal for before I hit 50, I guess. My wife just dropped 20 lbs with WW and is looking great - I need to follow her lead.

Have you tried copious amounts of beer and whiskey. They help out a lot with weight gain.

Yeah, I lifted for 2 years, 5 days a week and increased my protein intake with food and su pp lements. I got up to 160 and definitely was more toned but not really bigger. It was costing me a lot of extra money to eat like that and then my son was born and I didn’t have as much time. Not long after that our office relocated to a building without a gym and I’ve procras tinated about joining one ever since. I should at least be doing pushups at home I guess.

Knee pain is usually a sign of tight quads or hammies depending on where the pain in the knee is.

It’s genetics for me. My dad blew out his knee at 38 and the doctor said he had the knees of an 80 year old.

Combine that with a few years of skateboarding and parkour and yeah my knees are jacked up

Take that deal . I’m 34   and more salt than pepper but it’s still lush . Unless you’re trying to date people who are too young for you anyway, it’s not going to hurt you. If anything, the gray may help you be taken seriously professionally before you’ve really earned it (depending on your field, of course).

A college acquaintance recently posted several pictures from our college days on Instagram to laugh at the unfortunate fashions of roughly 2004 . I’m not a vain person ordinarily but   I think I stared unblinking and slightly confused   at my own cheekbones ( circa 2004) for several seconds.

I gained 30 lbs when I went from CNC operator to my Engineering job.  Sometimes it happens.

Same here, I get a lot of eye rolls from my wife and her friends. I’m 145 and have been in that range since probably 2000 (high school graduation). I eat whatever I want and I’m still usually hungry. I’m pretty active, but I don’t have a regular workout routine or anything like that.

I guess it’s better than the alternative. At least we don’t have to deprive ourselves of ce rtain foods.

it’s way better than the alternative, I’m sure of that. I just worry if my metabolism changes as I get older, I’ll have a hard time adjusting my habits, I think. But not wanting to buy all new clothes is a pretty strong incentive...
