[QUOTE=US27inKS;1084055003]The before was vacation in 2009, 45 years old and 235 lbs. Not much changed until January. At the time I had lost a little weight but was still 223 lbs. Then a bet with some friends prompted me to actually get serious. Currently I'm at 195-ish and working on getting some much needed muscle. I have another bet going now. 10% body fat by October 1, but my wife says I'm not allowed to get skinnier. So that can only mean one thing, more muscle.[/QUOTE]
wow man , u look like a totally different person now , congratz !!!

Impressive progress and dedication! I think it's starting to rub off a little.

You are RIPPED! You lost 20lbs in 3 weeks? How many calories were you eating? How much cardio?[/QUOTE]
Hey, just PM me if you're interested in the details.
I already wrote the whole thing out for someone else from this thread who PM'd me, although I didn't hear anything back lol, a thank you would have been nice at least, but whatever.
Anyway just PM me, I don't want to clutter up this thread.

PM sent. But if you edit your post with your pics in with the stuff you wrote out for that person, you certainly wont be cluttering the thread up - i think most people who read this thread will be interested in what you did to get those results so quickly!

12-13 weeks of dieting.
been dieting for 12-13weeks. one more to go and then i will build for a year

Wow...
Just went through almost this whole thread and it really has motivated me to change..
I am 20yo 5'10 290 and I don't want to be just that "funny fat guy" anymore.
I would love to change, but how?
I don't even know the first thing about working out, getting in shape, or dieting...
Where do I start?
What would realistic expectations be?
I have a gym membership already (comes with university tuition)
Do I start running and dieting first? gym later?
Any links to any threads or stickied ones would be a great help..
It IS Time To CHANGE.

Go for it.. Good luck

You will have to go to 'Nutrition --> Fat loss section and read the sticky threads on how to diet and work out. In short you have to lift 3-4 days a week and eat a healthy low calorie (below your maintenance) high protein diet for better results. Also, keep in mind that most of us here didn't know anything when we started first..

Top row 215lbs 22% bf. Bottom row 170lbs 12% bodyfat.7 months time. 3 months of Army basic training and 4 months of combat medic training. This is all from Feb-Sep 2009. Maintained 170 for 3 years and started lifting April 2012. Me today is the second pic.
I made a thread chronicling my transformation in depth titled "Neckbearded 4channer to ARMY Strong. Complete Transformation"

Thanks Doughnut and George for the kind words.
DEXA scan this afternoon, then I'll know my actual body fat %. Never been into fitness before, so all this is really new to me, and I'm looking at 50 years old very soon. I can tell you that this exercise stuff hurts an old guy. In order to win my bet in October, I'll be leaning on you guys for cutting advice about 6 weeks out. In the mean time, I'm trying hard to build muscle without gaining any gut. Wish me luck!

But... But... What about all the ads that say I can build 20 pounds of muscle while melting away fat in only 8 weeks? :)
I guess what I should have said was that I'm going to try to build some muscle while gaining MINIMAL gut.
