    thank you everyone! I still got time to contemplate on the bulking so we'll see!

    and @ larido51 I was averaging ~1900 a day! In the earlier weeks when I first started I was probably averaging around 2200-2300. I still a huge cheat day a week to "refeed" in the first month or two so I didn't feel like I was dying from a drastic change of probably 3000+ calories a day down to 1900.

    @kenzie you should be proud! any progress is good progress and you look good!

    It's finally been a year since I started working out, and this is my progress pic taken on 2/10/13. I started working out on 2/9/12, it took a lot of trial and error to get to where I am today. There is no special diet, no specific routine you have to follow. I used to think special fad diets would work, that if I did a lot of cardio I can eat whatever I want, and I learned the hard way the first few months of my transformation, because my weight didn't really go anywhere.

    Since then, I've cut weight three times, and bulked two times, just coming off my last one recently, the infamous two month winter bulk. I'm now hovering around 178 lbs, and I'm thinking of bulking again to a lean 185 lbs after summer ends, and I would like to know what people think of a few extra lbs of muscle on me.


    UNREAL!!!!! THUMBS UP

    I also haven't done more than 5 minutes of cardio a day for 7 months, but I may do 15 mins a day for cardiovascular health purposes.

    Myfitnesspal was the best tool in my weight loss journey and I actually introduce it to friends who are attempting to lose or gain weight.

    I hope people can use this as motivation, like they say, anything seems impossible until you do it.

    For reference, I'm 5'11" and I weighed 220 lbs in the first picture. I lift every. Single. Day. And since some people tend to ask:

    Monday: Legs Triceps
    Tuesday: Biceps
    Wednesday: Chest
    Thursday: back
    Friday: shoulders and squats
    Saturday: bicep tricep split
    Sunday: back and shoulder split, squats.

    I wish all of you best of luck in your fitness journey!
