(Slightly) Fat, Happy Bastard


Alright, before we start this love-fest, let me state the following;

I don’t give a flying rip what you wish to “rate” me. Tips, advice, thoughts, the occasional grope…all good.

I couldn’t find the " I used to be a major lard ass but I’m getting myself in shape now, and here’s some sexy pic goodness to go with it " thread, so I posted here.

I have absolutely no training in how to flex, pose, be more sexy than I already am, so if something looks goofy, my apologies.

With all of that said, I started out January 2007 at 325 lbs. As of this morning I checked in at 218. I wasn’t savvy enough to get my bodyfat at the beginning of this shindig, but it’s currently 17.3%. My goal is my first bodybuilding competition in June of '09, so I still have a ways to go and some time to get there. Not so much because a competition is something I’ve always dreamed of doing, but moreso because I get a mental kick out of going from one end of the spectrum to the other. Huge lard-ass to bodybuilding competition = good times.

I’m very thankful for all of the advice, tips, etc on this site and for all the inspiration from the majority of your pictures and stories. Keep it up.

So comment away. As my scoutmaster always said, “It only hurts for a little while.” Which was always followed by
" Never tell your parents…"…but that’s a compeltely different thread.

More goodness…

Legness…

Mooooo…


Still more…

And finally…

Nice Work !

good job but you need to train your back more

stats?

Excellent! keep it up

Good improvement

Are you gonna try and fill out the skin with more muscle or have it removed one day?

tee hee you said skin.

Actually, with as much as the extra skin has already shrunk, I may not end up with enough left over to worry about. If, however, after all is said and done there is some extra left over I’ll probably have it removed, providing I’m insanely rich and have nothing better to do with the money.

Much respect for the weight loss and the attitude. I’m still laughing at the grope comment.

great progress so far- I’m sure you’ll meet your goal if you stick with it. Then you can post your " I used to be a major lard ass but I’m getting myself in shape now, and here’s some sexy pic goodness to go with it " post. We’re all waiting for it!

“Mooooo” haha I like that nice one!

Great work there sir, lot of respect for that, can you let us know your diet+training+supplements used for the great weight loss please.

Great progress! I mean really great!
Make yourself feel like a stud and wax that back and chest and tan up, you’ll be glad you did! Does wonders for the self esteem!

Also chest, back and shoulders should be your current focus, great work on the wheels!

Nice job man. Like Randizo said, you’ve got some good legs. Your back has a good start, but if you hit it hard, your physique will improve drastically.
