amazing transformations...
I have a question to you, what about your skin after transformation ? Is it terse ? What do you do to have terse skin on stomach after transformation ?

Good job mate!!
lllDBOlll good work!!! nice one year transformation.
If it were easy everyone would do it right? Well, I started the Palumbo diet July 18th, and I have been on it since. It's been working for me and I feel like the improvements are fantastic. I just took these shots yesterday. I know I have plenty of work left to do, but things are coming along. Before pic (suit pic) at 370 (this was a few years ago at my peak weight), the back shot I was 310(this was July 18th 2011).... currently 234....

Very inspirational thread. I joined about 2 years ago and can't remember the email I used for the life of me. Since then I honestly haven't been hard at work and been on and off the gym. (relation**** stress) Starting this week I will be going HAM. I'll be posting pics with progress soon! For everyone reading; Stay focused and reach your goals no matter what! :)

Thank you!

Thanks alot, funny thing is I didn't start training properly until May 2011 and didn't even look into proper nutrition till August 2011! I wonder how different things would have been if I knew what I know now back in January... You gotta have these experiences to learn though... this year is going to be a great year!

Thanks bro... much appreciated!
5'7" here... Right now I'm 235lbs. Started low carb'ing on Jan 1. @ 246lbs. I'm not sure I wanna go this route. I plan on joining a local gym tomorrow and start working out as regularly as I can. Pics to come soon /embarrassed.

Nice! And you won't be embarrassed when you have some awesome "after" shots.
I'm biased, since I've never been able to pull off a super-low-carb diet, but I think the most important thing is to eat responsibly, which mostly means keeping your caloric intake in check. For me it also means lots of steamed veggies and lean meat. I do keep bread and pasta to a minimum, but I still have grains. FWIW I've been able to drop 60 lbs that way, plus running and lifting.
If you're in ketosis, keep it going. But I suspect that you aren't, which means you need glucose, in which case being low-carb kind of sucks.
The gym is a great idea. Even if you have gear at home, there's less pressure to push yourself there. Once you start working out regularly I think you'll find that the dieting is easier, both because you won't have to work so hard at it and because you'll start to think of food more directly as fuel. Anyway, congrats on your progress so far. 10 pounds is significant on our frames (though you're a bit taller than I am).

This is from November 2011 to January 2012. I have older pictures I need to dig up at 200+ 30%+ bodyfat, I was a bit camera shy then so I don't have any on hand at the moment.
First pic was 3 months into cut at 181 and last one is approximately 5 months in at ~167

What was your routine and did you take supplements? Congrats on the transformation man!

Thank you on a bulk now so changing again.
For the greater part of it I didnt take anything just put the time in at the gym lifting light and resitance training and doing cardio. Then in the last 1/2 months I started on Pharma whey and some strippers (which I dont think did anything really) Just keep it nice and clean soon dropped off.
