How large were your physical changes and how large, if any, were the social ones? Related to anything you feel comfortable sharing, e.g. socializing/meeting new people, work, dating etc.

    I remember the first time a roommate was moving after I’d started working out, and it was the first time in my life I’d ever found myself being actively helpful because of my physical strength.

    Years later, I’m still riding that high tbh

      Yeah, it can be pretty gratifying! :)

      In my case particularly, I think the reason it made such an impression on me is because both my roommate and I had a similar strength base and build when we first met. So it was validating (and a bit baffling in the early days tbqh) when my roommate would suddenly call me over to open jars and stuff.
