This is me at 269.8lbs and 32.4% BF and a 47.75" Waist, Currently at 228lbs, 37" waist and I believe about 16% BF according to my morning reading on my BF scale.

Most of this has actually happened in the last 4 months, I think I was at 255lbs at the start of August.

Still got a ways to go, I want to get down to 10% BF so roughly lose another 14lbs of fat... it's coming.

    Nice job with losing the belly fat! Mostly diet? Weightlifting? Cardio? All of the above?

    Ummmm, not sure how to explain this but a man's "equipment" must go one side or the other. google: "dress left or right"

    To the OP - you rock! Great progress!! You are getting some good definition there.

    Not sure how or why my shorts were crooked like that?? they are a bit big on me now so they kinda do what they want. LOL

    I attribute the weight loss %90 to diet. For excersize I mostly just do weights, but I do hike, or trail run, train BJJ or just run from time to time...I try to gear my cardio more towards fitness than long distance because I don't want to lose too much muscle. Usually my cardio is limited to a 10minute warm up on the elyptical, or treadmill walk at 15% incline before I do weights.

    Not doing the long distance 30+ minute cardio makes losing weight take longer, but gives me more of the look i'm going for. I am training to do the tough mudder and spartan though so I go do trail runs that are 1-3 hours about once a week.

    Awesome progress!! I would love to hear more about your routine and diet!

    My diet is public but I've only been on here about 2 weeks. Basically my workout schedule is;

    Mon Bi's
    Tue Shoulders
    wed Back
    Thur Chest
    Fri Legs
    Sat either, Cardio / boot camp / Hike / trail running / something
    Sun Triceps

    Usually I'll go to Muai Thai, or BJJ 1 night or 2 a week. Might go do cardio 1 night a week. For Lifting, that's my loose schedule, but I train how I feel so If I'm sore or something hurts, or a friend wants to work out, I'll mix things up.
