55ish gone...now the search for abs :)

savageman69

So i started this weight loss at somewhere around 225-230...didnt want to see the scale off the bat, i also avoided pictures and cameras at all costs so my before pix are limited at this stage i wish i took some real before ones but to late now lol.

I got down to what i thought was my goal weight kinda quick (4 months) i didnt do it smartly and ended up skinny fat, something i learnt to late so the last 10lbs ive been hitting the gym 5 times a week and im hooked, and starting to turn from skinny fat to more muscle lol.

So now im near my goal weight currently 172.2 but feel i should be closer to 165, this is my mini goal then im going to start building much more muscle.

Im excited to see some real abs, heck even a 6 pack would blow my mind as i said i could never have one..ive been big since i was little so this was nothing but a long lost dream. Altho my waist has gone from a 38 to a 30 so its happening lol..


Anyway enough rambling lol....heres some before and current..not quite after as im not close to done but lol, also if there is some people looking for friends with getting abs as a goal add me id love to have some motivated and driven friends that have like wise goals

what are you talking about no abs?! those abs look pretty ripped to me in that last pic! and i definitely wouldn't say that you're 'skinny fat'! i think you look great! :blushing:

Awesome job! I also am almost at my goal weight (6lbs away) and have lost all my weight in 4 months... and I need to now work on toning/strength training (though I have been doing that all along, there's still parts of me that are more jiggly and less toned than I'd like :laugh:

How tall are you brother? I'm 5'7"...and 180lbs right now. My most recent picture (last week) is my profile picture.

If I were to make a suggestion for your goals, I'd say cut back on the gym. Get a good lifting program (I can help if you want), lift 3x a week, eat at a slight deficit, and watch the bodyfat melt, while your muscles condition and strengthen.

Oh, and most importantly...REST! Rest builds muscles. Rest burns fat. Lifting, cardio...all these things are is primers. REST is what does ALL the work.

If you need anything man...just ask. YOU have done all the hard work...the rest is just touch up. You should be damn proud.
