    Thank you. I'm 5-foot-9, 199 right now. My original goal was 175, but the fitness coordinator at my gym recommended 185-190 due to my shoulders and large frame.

    You know, I heard this a lot, and I'm glad I didn't listen to them. I've had a bunch of people, doctors even, tell me to shoot for 180 (5'10", big shoulders) but there's still too much flab on my gut, even at 162, let alone 180. I'm getting down to 155-160 to lower the BF, and then will concern myself about putting back on muscle.

    I questioned her, too, until I started lifting religiously. I have a little flab left, but no question that I've packed on quite a bit of muscle. Important thing is to get where you're comfortable with what you look and feel like.

    That is amazing! Total respect for your effort and hard work and it's nice to see a post that says it takes hard work and dedication, busting your butt with exercise and eating. You look awesome and it's good to hear all that change has made you feel ten years younger. :)
