During High School I was able to drop down to 180 because I joined the basketball team and took it quite serious. I kept it off until my mid 20's when I had a drinking problem. Joined the gym and stopped drinking (not completely) last June and lost 28 pounds since and have gotten quite tone. Still not satisfied though!!

Lost about 36lbs in 1 month and 11 days using keto. Not losing any strength either.

I was about 280 when i graduated highschool

Lemme know what you think!!

I think it is safe to say that you are not losing much muscle. Sure, you are losing some. I am not trying to be rude, but there is not a lot of muscle on your frame to start. I would suggest increasing your time spent with the weights. 30 min is not that much time at all. How often are you training? What is your routine? Losing fat through dieting is great, but to see a real transformation, you should increase your muscle mass. An added benefit to doing that is an increased metabolism that will aid in your fat loss.

Good job man I plan on making a video similar to yours when I am done with my cut

[QUOTE=krieegs;866005181]10 weeks of training to date - started at 106.6kg, last weighed in at 82.3
Keyto diet - huge amounts of cardio for the first two months and two weeks of strength training so far.[/QUOTE]
Crazy for only 10 weeks

I just wanted to comment on this thread. All of your stories are truly amazing and inspiring!! On the Days I don't feel like getting my arse in the basement and working out, I read your posts and that is all I need!!

I started back in August of 2011 around 245lbs with P90X to drop the body fat quick. Right after the holidays and I concentrated more on lighting and prepping to bulk. I bought a multi-station stack machine and Olympic bench with 400lbs of plates and made my own gym in the basement. After about 3 months of lifting and eating a high protein diet, I am down to about 206lbs and building muscle quickly. Please check out my progress pics. I feel great and plan on getting into a cutting mode now to loose some more belly fat and show where I have cut up a bit. Any tips or comments are greatly appreciated!!

Again, thank you everyone on this thread for your inspiration!!!!

Haven't posted in here yet...So for now I'll just post my face before and after.

Everyone in here has done a fantastic job!

I was feeling a little demotivated because I started at 233lbs and I'm at 193lbs right now, but still got those man boobs and a huge belly (I'm 5'8" tall) but this thread just gave me the motivation to press on and try and reach my goal.

Tons of inspiration and motivation looking through these "Fat to Fit" threads! I'm 32lbs down... ~40 more to go! already seeing nice progress :)

I was 265lbs this past Christmas...

Please excuse the potato I have for a camera/phone.

Jan. 7th, 262lbs

good work folks keep it up. the post in here definitely keep me on track.

if anyone can help or give some type of advice..are any of you using weight as the sole indicator to fatloss or body composition? maybe both?
the reason i ask is that i got all the way down to 199lbs a few weeks ago but im current at 206. my target goal is 190. i started at 260lbs august of 2011 and this about 206 right now. i don't know whether my weight gain is result of muscle or fat..sorry if this sounds stupid..lol.,
should i get my body fat checked?

GREAT STUFF GUYS. ALL PROGRESS IS PROGRESS!!!! UPDATED PIC FOR ME, ALMOST THERE!!!

no doubt. nice transformation btw.
yeah i stay in the mirror but sometimes i/we tend to bs ourselves. i have progress pics from the beginning to now. i'll be posting all pics come august since that'll mark my 1 year cut

Yeah I don't use the scale anymore. It's too variable. Use the mirror or clothing. As long as you're managing your food intake and lifting hard, you'll lose weight.

This evening (unpumped!)

Could have been much further though. Wasted last summer/winter due to impropper cut/bulk. Was working my way through several forms of diet. With IF I finally found something that works like a charm.

I love this sport, I love this thread.

Changed my life. Thanks to everyone!
