Will We Ever Be Satisfied????

I wish I could focus on other things but it seems like this lifestyle has consumed most of my thoughts. It has definitely hurt my relationship with my girl and she is convinced it is due to steroids. Im sure I will snap out of it someday, but for now it feels like lifting and improving my body is the only thing that matters.

Does she go to the gym? Are you convinced the Steroids are the culprit?
 
My attitude has definitely changed after I started using steroids. I dont think Steroids are the only reason that the relationship is suffering but it is an issue for sure. I have a much shorter fuse and dont put up with much from anyone like I used to. And yes she does go to the gym but does not make it her life like I do.
 
i remember saying "i just want to hit 200lbs. that would be huge".
well that was 50lbs ago i hit that mark. Now i want to be leaner, yet still way around the same.

But it gives me something i like to do. its a pursuit that i not only look forward to reaching, but enjoy the effort in reaching it
 
i don't think there will ever be a point which we have "achieved perfection". like said a few times above , once you reach a certain goal, you find another flaw or imperfection that you now have to fix; thus another goal. but thats what makes this sport/lifestyle so great on one hand and such a burden on the other. no matter how many times my friends and people i haven't seen in a while compliment me and tell me how big i am and blah blah, i look in the mirror and see the same skinny kid i saw 10 years ago. i know that the scale says 235lbs but i dont see it. what can i say..i am bigorexic.

anyway...i don't think we'll ever be satisfied, but the day will come when enough is enough
 
I'm satisfied, but I'm still looking to be more satisfied...
 
I believe we fall into the same category as will we ever have enough money. Here's what Rockefeller said when asked after he became a billionaire, he was asked "How much money does a man need" Rockefeller "just a little more". I would hope that we could be satisfied with our bodies one day, but it'll probibly take another interest to change our view toward our bodies. Hell I'm coming up on 50 and I don't see and end to cycling gear yet.

I'm pretty happy about my physique. I'm not "satisfied", but for the most part, the things I'd like to change are things that aren't going to change no matter what.

The problem is, if I were to go off, I could not maintain my physique as it is. So I'm staying on with reasonable doses.
 
I believe it's like anything else. If are satisfied with anything you tend to get lazy with it. So never being satisfied is the motovation that people need to find that higher level in life, that will will more than likely never be obtained. ONGOING CYCLE!
 
At 41 i'm bigger and stronger than I was at 21, but I still have the mental image in my head of what I want to look like, and won't stop until I reach it. Like some of you said, once you reach a goal, you make a new one, so the process never stops
 
No, never... would be fun though hehe

It would be a happy thought to be satisfied with the size you got, but if one was, would we still fight as hard to grow?
 
Satisfied? No. But over doing big cycles? Yes. At 28, I have cut down to one cycle a year of Test and will never be 245 again but Im cool with that as I still look better than 90% of people out there and I refuse to be another bodybuilding casualty.
