[QUOTE=fitdad44;1029341713]I started my transformation (131kg to 86kg) on the 28/7/2012 and have been visiting this thread and website regularly for inspiration and motivation, so a big thank you to all who have contributed and helped me over the last 7 months.[/QUOTE]
how about loose skin? - have aany?
[QUOTE=doughnutgut;1029398543]I have them also.. no loose skin (luckily) due to slow weight loss but insides of my legs up around the groin area are deep purple rainbow like stretch marks and a few small on my stomach.... They are tattoos of a previous fat life we used to lead....[/QUOTE]
we call them battlewounds :-)
Well, I personally HATE my battle wounds and loose skin. I hope it is going to tighten up some more. It's done amazingly well considering, but I want it... GONE. My battle wounds are epic. I am a red-head and so every stretch mark shows because of my pale skin. And I got stretch marks literally from my armpits, down to MID CALF!!!! I didn't even know that could HAPPEN!
And thanks for the comments everyone! We are all kicking the ass out of our previous fat selves.
This thread really is inspiring. I started out 325 and am now sitting at about 205 with the battlewounds to prove it. Still a long way to go but i didnt put all the weight on overnight. I will see if i can dig up a before pic( i tried getting rid of all of them as i never wanted to see myself like that again)
Well...I'm still "under construction" but here's my transformation so far...
Before is 302lbs (look how round my belly is)
Afters are at 250lbs but ALOT of muscle added..still have too much fat but working on it still!those who say you can't do both at the same time...well...are wrong...lol

Here's my diet:
Diet plan is based on eating a protein and carb balance every 3 hours. The olive oil or flax seed oil is important due to the high protein low fat aspects of this plan. You can also substitute 8oz of lean sirloin or skirt steak every now and then to add some variety, but not too often.
Meal 1 (7 AM)
1 cup of dry oats mixed with water
1 cup of egg beaters or 1 cup egg whites and one whole egg
Meal 2 (10AM)
Protein Shake
a protein powder (with around 50 grams of protein) mixed with ¾ cup or 40 grams of carbs from cream of rice, grits, or oatmeal if tired of oatmeal use apple, banana
1 Tablespoon of Flaxseed Oil (Spectrum brand is best) or olive oil
Meal 3 (1PM)
1 cup of brown rice, or medium sized baked potato, or 1 cup of oatmeal
2 cups of green beans, broccoli or any other desired vegetable
8 ounces of chicken, turkey, or lean fish
Meal 4 (4 PM) Protein Shake
a protein powder (with around 50 grams of protein) mixed with ¾ cup or 40 grams of carbs from cream of rice, grits, or oatmeal if tired of oatmeal use apple, banana
1 Tablespoon of Flaxseed Oil (Spectrum brand is best) or olive oil
Meal 5 (7 PM)
1 cup of brown rice, or medium sized baked potato, or 1 cup of oatmeal
2 cups of green beans, broccoli or any other desired vegetable
8 ounces of chicken, turkey, or lean fish
Meal 6 (9 PM) Protein Shake
a protein powder (with around 50 grams of protein) mixed with ¾ cup or 40 grams of carbs from cream of rice, grits, or oatmeal if tired of oatmeal use apple, banana
1 Tablespoon of Flaxseed Oil (Spectrum brand is best) or olive oil
I'm still losing fat...but here's the pics I have:

I lift heavy and hard for almost two hours a day...we use a block workout to keep up the cardio...and also do a crossfit style workout twice a week...I still have about 25lbs of fat I want to lose.

I also managed to lose fat, build muscle. Have a good muscle base under that fat helped, but I KNOW I have made gains as well. For the people who are new to heavy lifting, it is easier for us.
I think I can finally post here :)

Brownus you look fabulous!!!
[QUOTE=anitadote;1065655461]Brownus you look fabulous!!![/QUOTE]
thanks, it wasn't easy and I had a few set backs but i'm happy now and I can concentrate on building muscle, with a good diet and good workout regime. which is no where near as strict as it was at the beginning, but if i fall back into my old ways of drinking and eating it will come back very quickly, so i need to keep my discipline. I'm fantastic at loosing weight but even better at putting it back on lol

Even though Im not where I want to be as far as fat goes...I'm tired of being on a cut...so decided to try to put on some more muscle......well this last weekend I decided to have my first cheat weekend in 4 months.....I ate anything and I'd been craving that whole time...I went to bed sick as a dog on sumday and woke up Monday morning 7lbs heavier than that previous Saturday morning....here it is Friday and after eating perfect all week I'm still up 4 pounds...I don't know how it's possible...but the scale doesn't lie...lol (I'm blaming water weight!)

I always blame water weight and then stop taking creatine lol hahaha!!
I'm exactly like that when I have my cheat day on a sunday, I look and feel fatter on the Monday, this is probably in my head, but it still feels this way.
If I go away with the mrs. over the weekend or go for a few nights out on the spin (in a row - sorry I'm from London) I also feel fatter and guilty. As I know my body puts weight on very quickly, I only have to smell a pie or doughnut or chocolate bar for me to put on weight.
I just make sure the next opportunity in the gym is more intense to get me in that fat burning zone, I usually try and super set everything after a cheat day to keep my heart rate up. but its whatever works best for you I suppose.
