[Xscoot]

Keeping this going until Sept 1. Think I am going to blow June 1 away now that I'm healed and hitting the weights again.

Still have another 5-7 to lose until im there, probably not until the end of July. Still way ahead of last years cut at this point.

Looking cut man. Good work.

[highiso]

Thanks man. Believe it or not the morning I took the top 2 pics I was actually 169. I have been getting told how I look so thin and asked if I am feeling OK. Unless I'm wearing a tank top you would ask if I even lift. LOL. Not the # I want to be at but in order to have abbs that's where I need to be. Gonna stay with this cut for another couple weeks and then enjoy most of the summer at maintenance . Then in the fall back to trying to build up the back and legs. You are one of the people I speak of when I talk about motivation. Your pics and posts have inspired me. Thanks for the kind words and keep posting.

I just got the same compliment, someone asked if I was ok, said I looked a little thin... no one ever asked if I was ok when I was 250 lbs. and 30%+ BF.

Thx, 193 atm, want to get back to 185 again this summer.

Excellent! Pecs, delts, and biceps are outstanding

Sad, isn't it? People are so used to the jumbo-sized that fit seems like a disease

Thx, yes perspectives are skewed it seems.

Pulled for the first time in 18 months since i hit my 500 PR. I grinded this 425 and needed wraps to do it. I was over 200 lbs. when i pulled 500.

Looking great Gary. I'm shocked people would ask you if you are sick. If you were 30lbs lighter I'd get it but you look damn good in the 180s-190s and no doubt you work hard.

Great job - and D*mn, those delt veins!

Thx buddy. Apparently my face gets gaunt and I'm told I look better (in the face) at 200+. I guess people think it's ok to tell someone to gain some weight. Heaven forbid a person tells someone to lose some weight, the PC police would be all over that ****.

Great job - and D*mn, those delt veins!

The veins are coming back slowly. I think I'm gonna start DLing again, maybe shoot for another PR, this time at about 15 lbs. lighter.

[MilaGroski]

You guys are looking awesome. Glad to see you keeping at it!

I am 5 weeks out from Nationals, a bit 'pooped' out. This weekend I have to start cutting again, but I am only about 5 lbs over stage weight. I feel I am tightening up alot as I am very lean and going hard.

I also hear the 'skinny' comments, which is ridic, I am very strong, and have nice round defined muscle.

My husb is on a Keto diet right now, he is extremely carb sensitive and this is the one diet that is working to get rid of visceral fat that he has genetically, despite clean eating and daily workouts. He feels skinny as he sees the scale move, but its only fatloss and its hard to wrap your mind around I suppose

[induced_drag]

Well.....some put up....some didnt.

Kind of what I expected.

I am still chipping away. June 1st came and went....and time still goes on. Been SILLY busy lately. Have not missed any workouts but I had to bring my food up because I have only been getting 5-6 hours sleep during the past two weeks. (working most every night to try to catch up). The food helps with the stress on the body and keeps me (somewhat) from getting sick. Caffeine gets me up....and gets me through my workouts When I am dieting and training heavy, missing only one night of sleep will make my glands pop out. If I dont take care of myself it will be full blown sickness in a few days.

For some reason, upping my carbs allows me to make it though this. I still feel like ****...and am still run down, but I dont get sick immediately. I survived this week...even had a few good workouts. It filled me out a little too.

Took a posing vid tonight. I am a little flattened out, but plan on going back to slight deficit next week.

Sharing a little posing vid. (I always make those constipated faces when I pose....it is the reason I could never be a bodybuilder )

No denying you're completely jacked. I easily have 5 lbs. yet lose and will disappear in clothes.

[ArchAngel'73]

Man you guys look good. I forgot it was the 1st yesterday. Here is my morning picture just out of bed. I admit I am nowhere near where you guys are but at 49 years of age I like how I look and am actually happy with myself this time around. My body feels so much better giving it a 3 week rest. Too many to mention and I don't want to leave anyone out but damn you guys are the real deal. ID I don't know if you have room for improvement. Just nuts. JBizzle you are going to be one of the best here next Summer. Highisco you have my ideal physiqe. JJ you look fantastic for what you have been through. PP that family picture puts everything else in perspective on what really matters. Mila so sexy. (wheres that babe birdiefu?) Steffo, such dedication. Vytis I read your journal years ago, entertaining. Corbi is beastmode. (you look like you belong in the movies) Mcbourque very hot. I want to continue through summer. It was so hard this time around losing fat I can't let myself go again. Sept 1 here we come.

You're a fukcing joke, as I knew you would be.
You pulled lotsa people in here under the guise of a "friendly competition" when all you meant to do was stir **** up and never produce yourself.
I hope you stay banned as you are poison and a troll.

The over 35 will remember you, you are now infamous...not famous, infamous.
You talk sh*t and can't deliver, you make challenges and can't even keep up with the pace car and I've never read so many lame azz excuses that it makes my stomach churn.

Go away, you are an anathema to bodybuilding.

[Smelly bull]

Well I failed on this endeavor! Although I dropped 20# or so, I don't hit the low 230#s like I wanted

Five weeks past surgery (hernia) and starting very light. In fact, just walking, chopping wood (seriously) and just ****ing around. I quit my gym membership (will build my own gym) and will start to lift in the evenings with my son (10 years old). No more 5 am, no more feeling like **** thru out the day.

Congrats to all that improved themselves, especially the 1st "timers".

[D2rmind]

ID--- The attention you pay to detail and the way you know your body and how it reacts simply amazes me. You obviously don't do anything less than 100%. As far as the Bodybuilding you would CRUSH it your first time on stage no doubt in my mind.

Highiso--- I know the feeling all to well of disappearing in clothes. It truly amazes me how people feel in regards to ones physique. I have been asked if I am sick, why am I losing so much weight, am I healthy, etc... Many of these comments coming from people who I would consider obese. Society seems to be more accepting of those that carry extra weight. Ones definition of fit or healthy definitely varies. Make no mistake about it though man you look Great.

[Vytis]

ID, Highiso, you guys are impressive as always.

Trying my best to try to keep up....

[VonP77]

Well I added a new profile/progress photo this morning but I don't think I have enough posts (yet) to actually post a photo into a thread.

Feel like I am making some progress. I can see a difference compared to last Fall.

Got him for you and he's spot on. Xscoot, you really disappoint and I wouldn't be surprised if the pics you're posting aren't even yours. You should just go away and never come back. Great idea for a thread, but horrible execution by the op. Maybe next time you'll keep it real.

I'm on spread with you, you rocked this!
Great transformation and WORK.

Ok, fair enough. I will post up this afternoon.

That's up to you, I'm not part of the thread but you can't blame them for attacking you and
calling you out on breaking your own rules. This is the big boy misc, you're expected to keep
your word here.

[Corbi]

Couple days ago.

[themyth2009]

What the heck. I am 100% drug free (unless you count liptor, blood thinners, experimental meds, etc), 100% supplement free, no diet aids, no nada and well it sucks. I also have a hard time training legs due to body structure and open heart surgery. But I am working my way back anyway and train as hard as I can.

[Jbizzlechizzle]

Ok, fair enough. I will post up this afternoon.

How about a video and prove you're you? Simply, put up or shut up. You're coming across as a real phony.

[Xscoot]

Here's a picture I just took. I know I look sh#tty but I haven't lifted much as I am healing. Diet has been really good though and I eat all my calories in a 5 hour window. I look great with clothes on though. My goal is to cut and retain what little muscle I have. I weigh 181.3 as of today. At 50 this is where it feels right for me. I am hoping I can get down to 170 cut for Sept 1.
