Posted pics in Losing Fat but never here, so I figured I'll post here.
At the start of my transformation, I was almost 300 pounds (About 290-295). Decided I needed to make a change ASAP and started counting calories (Following IIFYM) and hitting the gym. Prior to this, I hadn't ever lifted weights seriously in my entire life, so obviously I was weak as hell. I couldn't bench 95 pounds more than twice when I started, if that's an indicator of just how weak and out of shape I was.
I started eating at 2,400 calories and every so often I would drop it a bit (2,200 - 2,000 - 1,750; I've never eaten less than 1750). To be honest, I barely did any cardio and I didn't do as much ab work as I should have. I was confident enough in my diet that I would lose weight without having to do cardio. Any cardio I did was for the health aspect, a little extra burn, and/or for fun. So enough talk, here are the pictures.

Great work. It's also nice to see someone smile in their pictures rather than look like they aren't enjoying/haven't enjoyed what they've achieved. So what's next for you?

Surprisingly little excess skin.
No gyno.
Incredible quick weightloss.
One of the best cuts I've ever seen, especially in the time frame.
Fuark, how do people react to seeing you?

You must have lost like 20lbs just from shaving/waxing all that body hair off. Haha.
You look so much better bro, congrats.It takes years of hard work to become an overnight success.
