**Transformations from FAT to FIT** Part 2

[QUOTE=cup1981;875969091]I am a newbz here, and this is my first post. I was once hardcore into lifting and fitness, then life got the best of me and I turned to alcohol. That turned me into a 200 lb. blob. I then slimmed down to 145 lbs. using a strict diet and loads of cardio. For the past year I have been bulking, and am now up to about 160 lbs. and roughly 10% BF. No updated pics yet, the latest is from when I first lost my weight. Enjoy :)[/QUOTE]

Awesome job man! Look great. I'm still cutting, been having a rough week with it so reading and posting in here for more motivation. Keep going strong guys.

[QUOTE=zachl99;876139621]I'm on my way to be fit! I was 320lbs.[/QUOTE]

Nice work man, what'd you change? How long did it take you?

[QUOTE=VMMXII;875885531]lolwut?[/QUOTE]

The psychology behind allowing oneself to be out of shape is usually much deeper than most think. Moreover, the willpower/diligence required to 'man up' and get out of the rut is respectable to say the least.

At least that's how I see it. Perception is everything.

Great work.

I just cut out pop. Then I Got a gym membership, and I started playing basketball and running on the treadmill for exercise. I ran two miles everytime I went to the gym and tried to shoot around and play basketball for atleast 30 minutes.

whats up everyone. posted in here a while back but took some new pics of my progress so figure i share.

this is 190ish at 30%bf

amazing transformation upt88 ^^^

how long was this transformation ?

[QUOTE=infektid;875693631]Lots of fantastic transformations in this thread.

Attached is my transformation.

The first one is just after thanksgiving 2011. My girlfriend took a video of me in my drunken stupor. When I sobered up and seen the video, I was sickened by what I seen. Here is a still shot from the video. (230lbs)

The second one is from just a couple days ago. (171lbs)



Keep working hard guys and gals. Determination is one hell of a drug.[/QUOTE]

omg what a transformation! really good job :) This definitely shows that it is possible for anyone to lose weight!

hey how do I post pics? No idea how to

Cut update, made a thread about it but figured I started in here so I'd update. Now down to ~190. Will be done in about 75 days. Still bummed about not doing proper before photos.

First off, great job bud!! My buddy has a very similar build to what you use to look like. He is stuck with loosing his "tire". Can you post or send me your routine and diet that I could give to him. You did such a great job man!! Any help would be much appreciated!!!

Still a long way to go :)

This year's summer cut.

December 2011 | May 2012

[IMG]http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r21/bmaczuga/Fat/photo.jpg[/IMG]

And an oldie but goodie..

[img]http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r21/bmaczuga/Fat/1999.jpg[/img]

Very nice! That's a heck of a transformation man.

[QUOTE=hawaiifivebro;877204271]Very nice! That's a heck of a transformation man.[/QUOTE]

Thanks man, still far from my goals.

Nice job Bmaczuga !

after being out of shape and unhappy with the way i looked almost my whole life, this thanksgiving i decided i really needed to make some changes.

my before picture sucks and i wish i had a better one. i was about 205 but i'd say this picture is flattering considering how big i was. i had some wicked man boobs, flabby chest, and a disproportionately wide lower body.
now, 5 months later, i weigh around 165 and i'm very happy with my progress(but far from stopping)

nov-11 205lbs
may-12 165lbs

after pics are unpumped and taken before bed.

PS. i'm 6'1"

Here is my 12 week progress. I started at 248 and currently at 207. I know it's not tremendous progress but this is only the beginning for me. Any criticism is welcome. Good job to everyone else on here.

So many great success stories to keep me motivated..

Attached are my photos

February 2011-About 205-210lbs

April 2012-158-160lbs

Still have lots of work to do!

Really trying hard to get the abs to come out more, but kinda stuck and not too sure what to do.

I also did my first show last year, since then I have put on quite a bit of muscle and am leaning down a bit for summer :) I follow a strict diet year round and workout plan. Its taken me three years so far and will never give up!

This is such a motivational thread. I have been watching for a while and it always helps push me. I can finally post here myself.

Nice weight loss, looking lean. Now it's time to add some muscle and mass to that frame.

I think you are doing good at losing the fat in the stomach especially the lower stomach. I am trying to lose the lower portion, but can't seem to do it without losing size of arms and a bit off my chest.

oh and here's my progress if you say I was "fat" before, I can't tell, I'd say more like "out of shape" -

I don't know what is going on with me this year.
Start lose fat:
06/02/2012 - 260lbs (117kg)
06/05/2012 - 198lbs (89kg)
keep losing n training...

You guys and gals are incredible.
I spent a loooong time reading every page, starting with the old/first thread.
Keep killin' it. I'm more motivated than ever!

will post my results when i am further into my cut :) so far only 13-14 weeks in... everyone is looking great in here though. inspiring as hell

nice job dude. i have a question. my body type it looks like yours as in the previous "before" picture. and im having a hard tme getting any prosses just by eating healthy and working out 5 times a week. i was wondering what type of supplements you took (if any) or which ones, if you could fill me in with a little more info.

Good job dude, but I definitely think you 're view of yourself in the before pic is off. Tall? Yes. Broad? Sure. Fat? Not really. With that said; you've toned up nicely, good job.[/QUOTE]

Came back to post a better before pic. Found this yesterday on a cd that was under my bed. LMAO. If you don't think I'm fat in this pic, then it's YOUR view that is off. LOL.
