Been sick all week, training put on hold to fight off the cold. I’ll be back hitting it tomorrow…
You need some beer, a few shots and a pizza!! Looking great man. If you ever need to find some of the weight you lost I have it. All the best!
Colin, how long did the cut take? And what were your start and finish numbers?
Hey Jack,
It took me about 6 months. I started at a weight of 256.6 with Body Fat 22.6 and 198 LBM and ended @ weight 194 @ 9.9% BF and 176 LBM. I haven’t checked in 3 weeks or so but I am around 206 and 11% right now. I just started adding the HiTT back in to slow down the gain a little bit. I would love to end up around 220 at 14% or so…
Wow, that’s freakin’ awesome.
Out of curiosity, was the weight/fat loss linear, or did it fly off and first and slow down as you got leaner?
Thanks Bro, It was pretty steady after the Initial flush. About 3-5 pounds a week. I was dropping inches so fast I started shopping at goodwill so I could return the pants every two weeks and get new ones, LOL.
What’s to say? Lookin great, bro.
Hey thanks Chief! Just got tired of being a BFF I guess…

Looking good stud. Sorry about the job situation. Hope you find something less stressfull soon.
It sucks to work for a company where the product is all IT and the senior exces do not understand IT at all. They think we can just shit code changes in minutes and that changing a mouse is the same thing as setting up a new web services integration with a partner in China…
Yesterday the CEO was pissed at IT because his expense report miss calculated his mileage, So now I am at fault because he doesn’t know how to use a spreadsheet…
