Very inspirational stuff here!
[QUOTE=marcob91;1224750411]Growing up I was always a big kid and before I started my transformation I was 240lbs at 17 years old. I began to change my diet and only a few years later did I stat to workout. Now I am currently 22 years old at 180 lbs with still a long way to go.[/QUOTE]
Looking sick bro
I got a question for all the guys who were at the 280+ range and got down to a good weight.
How did you got affected in terms of stretch marks and loose skin? and what can you do to prevent the ''pancake'' when you do.
I'm currently in the process (22 pounds down, and still 44 to go) and I really want to avoid loose skin as much as I can.
the first day i saw this thread, i knew that i would one day post in it.
starting stats: 5'11 452lbs
current stats: 5'11 237lbs

Hello there Bodybuilding mates :D
I used to weight 104+ kilo
Now i weight 76 kilo maybe even less at this moment my body fat is at 8%
My bicep is : 3mm of fat
My tricep is : 4mm of fat
My Belly is: 6mm of fat
and my Back is: 8 mm of fat
How far should i drop this before i would be able to compete, i'm thinking about competing next year since I trained a lot, but since i was way over weighted i got no chance to be the number one this year, and if i go i wanna be THE NUMBER ONE! I will also have to learn to poses i already started practising them!
The progress is made in about 15 months :D
Question: how low should i go in % before i can compete next year?
First picture where i'm at now second where i used to be

Nice work, any pics of you at starting weight? I also started at circa 330lb, currently at 285lb...but don't imagine I will look anywhere near that good at 260..I am also 6 ft 0.

I gotta look. I will definitely post them if I find them. But thanks man and let me know how your journey goes. And luckily I've been lifting and working out since I was a freshman in high school. (So about 5 years )...so I had a solid base of muscle to build off of, my eating habits were just awful. Just gotta keep going!

This thread is incredible, so much motivation!
Looking for someone to partner up and start my own weight loss journey, thought it would be cool to do it with someone on here as an additional motivator. If you're interested, PM me!!!!
[QUOTE=orthoguy;1229351773]3 years transformation[/QUOTE]
whoever you are who just repped me.. thank you very much :)
Super motivated seeing the pics here! Really pushes me to work harder.
16 months in hitting the gym 3 to 4 times a week now. I've basically timelined it and put it in this pic (1 represents the beginning which progresses through 5 to now where I am currently):
[URL=http://s15.photobucket.com/user/kittles87/media/PhotoGrid_13969602202761_zpsc67efb7e.jpg.html][IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a375/kittles87/PhotoGrid_13969602202761_zpsc67efb7e.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
I started out in pic 1 at around 21% BF and 87 kilos (191 pounds), lost weight through just diet (pic 2) to around 80 kilos (176 pounds), and then got lean with a combo of gym, jumping rope 20 min after every workout, and a low card diet to get to (pic 3) around 8%BF at 73 kilos (160 pounds), bulked up to 76 kilos (167 pounds) at around 9 and a half% BF (pic 4), before reaching pic 5 after exactly a year in the gym at 75 kilos (165 pounds) at a little over 8% BF. In the 2 "Now" pics, you can see that I have now cut down to 72 kilos (158 pounds) at around 7.5% BF, as I want to go on a PROPER bulk now (I don't care that spring is coming).
Happy overall, but I really hope at my 2 year mark to see more chest development. Also seems I will have to go MEGA low on bodyfat% to see the bottom abs clearly. Either that or work with more weight to make them thicker.

Greatjob hopefully my cut will go like yours. But i think your BF statements are a bit off, i gess you messure with clippers.

Using a scale and calipers, but I know they can't really be counted on. What would you guess me at?
[QUOTE=Dai323;1230303663]Using a scale and calipers, but I know they can't really be counted on. What would you guess me at?[/QUOTE]
I gess that your BF in the now picture is about 9-10%
[QUOTE=MikeTheBiceps;1230304253]I gess that your BF in the now picture is about 9-10%[/QUOTE]
Oh man..I WISH I could have that much abs showing at 10% like some guys can! Would love it if you were right, but sadly, I've pretty much come to terms that my body has to have below 9% for abs to show well :-(

holy **** mang i can't believe no one embedded this for you. nice job!
Totally going to participate on this. Started going to the gym 3 weeks ago at 210 lbs (5'11" tall). I'm planning to start my KG workout after my first month.
Been into bodybuilding on and off for 1year. started with all pro, switched to icf 5X5 and now again all pro.
before picture about 62kgs, started all pro.
after picture about 58kg, 8 weeks in all pro.
doing keto diet for the 8 weeks (not feeling all that well) at 1500cal which is about 300 less than maintenance.

Please can someone estimate my bodyfat at the last pic. caliper says its under 10%, but if it was to be true then my abs would show i guess.
