**Transformations from FAT to FIT** Part 2

I have always come to this thread for motivation when I was feeling down and wanting to give up. My goal was to be able to one day post a picture on here so that I could motivate others just like everyone has done for me. My lifestyle change began a year ago as a New Years Resolution that I stuck to, also quit smoking (very tough at the same time, don't recommend it lol). I am by no means done but just wanted to post a "ONE YEAR PHOTO."

My god, amazing!

Down 60 lbs.

Nice job everyone! Seeing all these pics is really motivational!

So, after 2 years joining and leaving the gym, not taking my diet serious, drinking a lot of alcohol and seeing my physique getting worse and worse each day despite working out, I decided I had to make dramatical changes in my life.

I began dieting last month and this time i'm not giving up, no matter what!

Pic in the left 99.7kg, 24.9% BF.
Pic in the right 94.4 KG, 19.2% BF.
1 month of diet. A lot more to come!

Ps.: I'm new here, how do I put my pics directly in my post?

Sort of embarrassed to post this lol.

Still have a crazy amount to go.
But this is a progress shot from September to November of 2012
My initial weight was 158lbs, Now im down to 135lbs (as friday).

Been really mindful of my diet, and really hitting the gym hard.

I was a gym junkie a few years ago, but a surgery stopped me from going, and I lost my motivation.
Im back at it now, and absolutely hooked again..

I don't have transformation pics to post. I just signed up today due to the original "Fat to Fit Transformations" forum.
I hope I can post here really soon to possibly encourage someone as you guys have encouraged me!

Not gonna quote and post on everyone... but amazing job by everyone ITT.

Of course there is a long way to go for me, but I just started for 2 months. Never did much of fitness actually, so I think the progress is alright.

Before (28th of october 2012): 85,7 kg
After (5th of january 2013): 73,6 kg

You need at least 50 posts to be able to use [img] tags and post your pictures directly in the post.

First of all I watched my nutrition. Never had any bad snacks after that, added more food with more proteins, but I´m never going to buy all these supplements and stuff. Replaced the Coke with green tea, and drank alot of water.

About my routine; well I do karate 3 times a week, but in the beginning I added cardio besides that as well. HIIT-running 3 days as well besides the 3 days of karate. That made me lose weight inmediately. Even in the Christmas season I still lost weight.
Than in December I stopped with cardio, because karate is actually cardio training as well, and I started focussing on my muscles.
Day 1: Chest & Back, and some ab excercises
Day 2: Karate
Day 3: Shoulder & Arms, and some ab excercises
Day 4: Legs & Back, and ab excercises
Day 5: Karate
Day 6: Karate
Day 7: rest

Great job everybody. These pics keep me motivated, and I hope to post my pics here one day to return the favor for someone else.

Great Work Everyone. Here is mine to date. New progress photos on Friday though with a better look at whole body. Keep up the good work. I will be ripped!


[ATTACH=CONFIG]5288403[/ATTACH]

Trying to figure out the embed function but need more posts I think so will post shortly :) Motivation at its best in this thread, It's what got me going way back when in 2008 before my two year hiatus !

speechless.. wow amazing job man!

These transformations has given me so much motivation that im gonna start my own diet soon!

Really motivating to see some (well, all) of these while trying to drop another 8lbs to get to 7-8%..Seeing how hard some of you have worked will push me to my limits to drop this last bit of weight.
Good job everybody.

Nice! Yeah I've collected a few, got knee to ankle sock, both feet, thumbs, thigh and then the ones you can see


Good luck with your journey dude, just stay consistent and don't beat yourself up if you slip up, diet wise. I found that was my biggest issue. I used to get really down on myself.
