When I Started:
Sep, 2006
How I Started:
I have been fat all my life (see the before pics). I hated myself because of it, but I thought I couldn't do anything about it. Finally, one day, I became so sick of it, that I would start working out and see what happens. Within a few weeks I was addicted.
Why I Love It:
I love the energy I have and that satisfied exhausted feeling after a good workout. The high I get when I power up to a new max, or raise my working weights. I love people's occasional stares of admiration instead of disgust.
How I Stay Motivated:
Now, I get to do so many thing that I could never do before. Everyday, there is something new. I see guys here and elsewhere who have done it and have what I want. They inspire me. I know if they can, I can as long as I work hard, lift hard, live hard.

Before Most Muscular - No Pump - July 09
This was me in 2004. I was about 360 or so im these pics. 59" waist. So fat, so unhealthy. Sometimes, I can't believe that I ever looked like this.
I do not often do shirtless pics, but this one is OK.

Goals:
Main Goal:
Transform My Body
Goal (Overall):
Continuing the Transform . . .
Goal (Long):
I have been fat all my life. Morbidly obese in fact. I became so sick of myself that I finally started to do something to transform my body into the muscluar one I secretly always wanted. Since September 2006, I've lost almost 180 lbs, from 375@45% BF to 212@10.4% BF currently. My current goal is to continue the process that I'm on until I reach 8-10% BF, then gain back lean muscle until I reach about 210 with 8% BF. From there, I will get stronger and stronger, better and better -- however long it takes, I'm in this for life.
Weight Goal:
I want to GAIN 30 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
8%

Hey man, how are you doing? I came across your profile and what you did is awesome. I'd love to know what your routines and diet was like to do that? Me and my brother are currently in the process of trying to lose a lot of weight. About 200lbs for him and about 100 for me. I was just wondering if maybe you could help me out a little to point us in the right direction. If you wouldn't mind answering a few questions then please email me. cubsfan72401@yahoo.com Thanks man
