I know what you mean man. Whats your diet like?
Yesterday I deadlifted 595 and sqautted 500 for a double after 45 minutes of cardio. Its a cool feeling when everyone in a gym stops and watches you do a lift with their mouth hanging open, as cocky as that sounds its what motivates me.

This week I'm only eating around 2000, but I'm not doing any cardio(my truck is broken so I have a hard time making it to the gym). I think maintenance is only around 2200-2300 because I'm not dropping any weight, but I'm still gaining muscle which is exactly what I'm trying to do at this point.
Unfortunately, I have to be careful because my maintenance changes so much. If I have baseball practice I'll easily burn 1000+ calories just from practice, another hour of pretty intense cardio and that's 750 or so. Then on days I don't have practice maintenance falls by a lot.
And I know what you mean about people watching you. That's what I loved the most about powerlifting. I loved being the last guy to squat(you go in order based on max weight), and I love everyone stopping what they were doing to see if I'd get up 600 then 650 then 665.

Hell yeah man, this past New Years I was single after 3 years and 3 months. I've been nailing the weights MWF, the mma gym TTR, and running a few miles TTR. Also began drinking vodka instead of beer, idk if it's healthier but it's cheaper lol. Right now I'm 191, I'd like to be over 200 in the summer while loosing the beer flab. My stomach resembles your mid December as of now.

Oh and for what it's worth. Vodka has about 70 calories per ounce compared to light beer which has ~100-110. MGD 64 and Select 55 have fewer calories but both have less than 3% alcohol by volume.

I need to lose weight too. Lately Ive been lifting but havent changed my diet.
She probably wouldnt wonder what was going on if you zipped your pants back up.
lol, whats douchey about losing weight?
Im sure everyone does think your a douche bag though Mark, but its nothing to do with your weight or size.

Haha there's two reasons, for me posting in here and on the board more. I'm single after a 4 year relationship. It was my starting motivation. I'm sure to everyone else I look like a douche bag, but it weird to be able to do something you didn't think you can do. I'm proud of myself as arrogant as that sounds.

We need to make a new thread or turn this into the Weight Lifting Diet thread. GMFullsize has a badass one. I wonder why we don't have one.
It should be to discuss lifting, dieting, and questions along those lines.

Haha, you're probably right. My personality isn't helping my cause.
