some nice progressions in here :)
Wish I'd stumbled across this thread during my round 1 transformation - there's some very inspiring posts in here!
Hers my journey so far guys :)
On the 05 of March 2012 I started my first 12 week transformation following Kris Gethins 12 Week Daily video trainer.
I finished my first 12 weeks and saw some amazing results but I'm no where near done yet!
I was a big dude ( in a very bad way though ) I was rocking in at just over 125 KG at 185.4cm
In Short my health was in a very bad way because of my weight and I had to do something about it.
I don't drink or smoke all of it was down to poor diet, which is terrifying looking back on it.
Some pretty drastic changes are starting to take place and I'm hell bent on meeting my abs for the first time !
Bodybuilding.com putting out Kris's daily video trainer has helped me so infact thinking about it its saved/changed my life much if I'd carried on eating the way I was and justifying my diet with pitiful gym work I think I'd probably have eaten my way down into an early grave.
My journey is only just starting in the grand scheme of things so any guidance is most welcome, I'm repeating the daily video trainer for a second time to see what mass was really hiding under that fat ! So far the results are promising :)
JoeHXC- Amazing difference in 80 days. Your hard work definitely paid off, way to go.
I started Kris Gethins 12 week trainer about 8 weeks ago. I did not expect to loose so much weight so quickly. Cant wait to finish off and start adding some mass
Some great stories guys, hopefully get my progress pics up soon when my post count goes up (only joined today!)
I went from 300lbs to 210lbs, thanks to bodybuilding, currently 5'10 and roughly 20% bf so still have a long way to go

okay
[QUOTE=WCEForeverman;867565881]I decided to lose some weight for my wedding.
Went from around 115 kg in the first pic to 87 kg[/QUOTE]
Here are some updated pics and some more one I took when I started. These probably show my transformation a lot better.
So I basically just started using a calorie counter on my phone. I didn't avoid any foods except for sugary drinks, but everything I ate I did in moderation.
Started walking everywhere also. The shopping centre is 800m away from my house. I used to drive.
In the past 3 months I have really been upping the exercise.

5'2 / 204 lbs / 43% BF in 2002.... age 17
5'4 / 128 lbs / 17% BF in 2011.... age 26
Today I weighed in at 140 lbs with 18% BF.... age 27
Working on shoulders, god do I love the way women look with FIERCE delts and diamond calves.
Leaning down in August to see what I'm workin with.... in the meantime, I'm loving my bulk diet.
Sweet Potatoes, Yogurt, Coconut water, and unsweetened Almond Milk are my fave but definitiely get eliminated during my lean phase.
Gettin' There!!!
See ya guys when I shred up a bit... I might be in a cranky mood, tho ;)

Nice job
I must be eating the wrong stuff. Noted I have only lost 10 kg in 4 months but roughly 40 cm around my waist but the results here are just insane! I dont understand how you can lose the weight so darn fast! All in all, one hell of a job to all and kerp motivating the rest of us!
Me after 4 weeks cutting was 16 and half stone now 13 and half any extra tips guys the pic on my profile is after 4 weeks
[QUOTE=Verint;904329223]That was after a bulk right?[/QUOTE]
No that was all cutting. 1900 was my highest for calories and eventually got at low as 1300 as I got close to my show.
[QUOTE=justANTO;904058413]My dude this is the most amazing transformation. I wish a lot of people saw this, because it's more realistic than what you see on TV nowadays. GREAT job.[/QUOTE]
No doubt, appreciate it man. Trying to get that NPC pro card in the physique division

Yep, I think you're doing it right.

mirin, routine and diet?
Thanks Man! Reped ya back
Ok, so I'm going to put my first post in here a little different than others. I haven't been on the site too long and haven't been back in the gym for too long either (2 months). I am going to share a pic of where I was 2 years ago (approx. 225 lbs) first, then I'll share my most recent photo (it's really sickening tbh). About 3 months ago I hit 292 lbs again, I had hit a very hard time in my life and working out was non-existant, stress was higher than ever, and overall I just didn't give a sh*t no more. Luckily about 2 months ago I broke out of this habit and got my fat @SS back in the gym! Overall I'm already feeling so much better (go figure) and I have noticed some changes, although I've got a long road ahead of me.
So since going back up to 292 lbs, I have managed to get myself down to 270 lbs today. So I know I still have a lot of fat to go, but my motivation level is as high as it has ever been in my entire life! I know this is a fat to fit thread, but this is exactly what I am going for. I just thought I'd share from the very beginning. And if someone doesn't mind, do you care to take a wild guess on my current BF%? Thanks.

Awesome job dude!, I also am working on trying to get rid of all my loose skin. Did bulking / eating at maintenance help you much?
