185!!!!!!

**UAzips** · 08-09-2012, 06:53 AM

the least I've weighed since the 7th grade

Its been a super hard road to get here but I've never felt this type of self satisfaction in my life!

I've come a long way from just a few years ago when I signed up for this website and lied about my weight on my stats because I was too embarrassed to admit that I weighed almost 250 pounds

Thanks to all of you guys! I may not post on this forum a ton but I read it almost everyday and you guys have been a big inspiration/motivation to get my ass in the gym even when I really didn't feel like it.

For those of you who are just beginning your weight loss journey and are wondering if the juice is worth the squeeze, I'd like to tell you all that it is! I'll tell you right now that it won't always be easy but nothing worth doing ever is. At the end of the day though, the first time you take off your shirt and don't feel self conscious anymore you'll know you've done the right thing. Thanks again guys, I'll be around. 170 here I come!

Keep on keeping on bro!

Its cool, not doing it for reps.

**CD101** · 08-09-2012, 08:36 AM

good work, I've no idea when I would have been ~180 last, before I finished growing I guess.

**MarinoMike** · 08-09-2012, 08:59 AM

Brah, that's hella motivational!

You did good going 250 down to 185.

Any loose skin?

**nycHorn** · 08-09-2012, 09:26 AM

Congratulations! I was in the same boat, 245 down to 177. Unfortunately, I don't have as much LBM as you.

**Smcd1979** · 08-09-2012, 09:44 AM

Great job man! I've been stuck at 180 for a while now, but i'm wanting to get down to 165 and then start a slow clean bulk.

I think you look better than I do though.

**MrArcher** · 08-09-2012, 09:55 AM

Great job mate, You must feel great

Nah, Like I said it took a couple years to get to this point, so I lost the weight slow enough that loose skin wasn't an issue

Thanks, and congrats on your weight loss as well! Lbm was never an issue, believe it or not before I ballooned up I was an all state wrestler in high school so the muscle/frame was always there under the layer of fat lol

Yeah man, plateaus are the worst! Whenever I would hit one I would just tweak one little thing in my diet or workout and that usually solves the problem.

I looked at your before and current pics and whatever you are doing seems to be working great. Keep up the good work!

The energy levels are so much higher now. It really is like night and day

**mrmagic9799** · 08-09-2012, 10:36 AM

Thats half the battle my man. You look WAY better now than when you first started!

**kgts** · 08-09-2012, 11:16 AM

Great work! I know the feeling. I started at 260lbs and have worked my way down to 192ish so far. Did you get that feeling of success when you got under 200lbs?

Sadly, I will probably have to get down to 175 before I look lean, but I know that all of the hard work will be worth it in the end.

I had a Huge feeling of success when I got to 220. I was stuck there for almost a month and almost quit, so glad I didn't.

Keep going bro. The first time you go swimming and take your shirt off and you know you look good makes it all worth it.

**Retoaded** · 08-09-2012, 11:46 AM

great job bro - I am on my way down to 185 myself.

you already look lean - are you trying to look completely ripped?

personally, i am going for your leanness that you have now in the pic you posted, then I am gonna slow bulk...

Yeah bro I'm trying to get as shredded as possible, its gonna be a freakkin Cinderella story with proteinz playing the part of the glass slipper. I think 175 is more realistic for my frame. I think I might die if I get down to 170 lol. But when I get there its time to bulk.

Getting to where I am now should be a piece of cake for you. I don't even do any cardio or anything. Just eat clean and work your ass off in the gym and you'll be where you want to be in no time.
