Yeah, I got in the best shape of my life, spent a few years with all fitness centric hobbies, and eventually got certified as a personal trainer...

Because my ex girlfriend said (not in a negative way at all) that my body just wasn't the type to show a six pack regardless of how hard I worked.  It wasn't an insult, she just knew how much time I spent working out, that I was really overweight when I was younger, and that I was frustrated by the way that I could get like a hard, flat stomach but the remaining loose skin stopped my abs from showing.    We were still together then, but did separate not too long after for other reasons.

The fuck it isn't. 

I likely shaved a decade or more off of my life in the following year being way too extreme with both my diet and exercise, but I got my defined abs out of spite.
