    Lifting 5x per week on a deficit and working with a trainer. I killed it every single session.

    Bump. Wish MFP had a way to mark favorite thread topics? It doesn't right?

    I don't know how to add pics onto a thread but - my profile picture is the result of six months of lifting. I was a marathon running cardio bunny before and was definitely the embodiment of the phrase "skinny fat". I've never had any definition in my stomach until now (I had a real pot belly before which meant I had to buy size UK10-12 jeans - that is by no means an unacceptable size but on my frame it meant jeans were REALLY baggy around the backside/thigh area as all my fat was on my tummy rather than evenly distributed :angry: )

    Love looking at everyone's success stories :flowerforyou:

    OMG!!! i'm going back to gym after seeing this! and example of consistency and discipline! :happy: !!!
    I do not have any proper before pics as I was very very camera shy due to the weight I had gained. However, I did find one taken on holiday just before I started on MFP at the age of 44.

    I lost 37lbs through a reasonable caloric deficit and lifting over the course of a year. Since then I have done a bulk and a cut and am now reversing back up ready to bulk again. A couple of my most recent pictures, now at 46 years old:









    46? U look awesome!!!

    Just finished my first week of NROL4W. Came looking to see if there was a thread like this. :) Great inspiration and motivation to keep going; thanks to all of you who shared! I have taken measurements but really need to take some "before" pics.
