    Yes MY POST. I edited it and took back the comment but she already quoted me so it is there forever now thanks to her. I re-looked at them and took my comment back but it was to late.
    Read my previous post. I did edit my comment and not put that but she got what she didn't want by reposting it. No longer my fault. I judged wrong and take blame for that. I still stand that it looks fishy by not showing the face in the last one.
    I feel like his face shouldn't be covered in the 2nd pic and his tattoo on his right arm is no longer visible but it looks like it should be. If it's really... congrats to him... But it just sounds like you are pushing beachbody supplements... Which aren't clean eating...

    It's because the last two pics were taken in the mirror so the pics are backwards. His tattoo is STILL THERE. Just covered somewhat by his arm. I wish I could figure out how to delete this post. People are freaking critical and rude!

    I don't think you can, usually the OP just stops commenting and it eventually dies off..


    If you would have read the whole thing you would have seen that I was commenting to what the OP said about deleting her post lol....

    Goodness....Why did you respond to MY POST then? I was quoting what the OP said and your comment was included in that quote. I wasn't even talking to you when I responded to her question about how to delete the thread. I don't even care to try to explain anymore, eh.

    30 days? Highly unlikely.

    It takes years to get abs like that especially being as skinny as he was in the 1st picture.


    not quite lol all he had to do was lose the layer of fat above. the abs were probably already there. as skinny as he was, one month would not be extremely hard to shed that much body fat percentage to expose the inner core.

    trust me i do not take away from his hard work and dedication! its awesome either way! but this is just fine tuning really. which i applaud!! definetly good advice from the wife. he just had a great starter kit (body frame) to start with. i wouldnt be surprised if he weighs more now then he did also.

    LOL. My bad. I thought she was trying to delete my comment even though I had already removed it per my own judgement and felt like she was personally singling me out even though a ton of other people said what I said.

    Thank you :) This is exactly it. Abs were there, just covered up!

    awesome progress. Just a note, he totally could have done that too with out the shakeology. Just saying you kinda blew your money on that stuff.

    Yeah, I agree. Good job on the progress, that can't be denied. But you can definitely do without wasting money on that gimmicky overpriced stuff.

    Yepppppppp.

    I don't :( We have a caliper but it was saying like 6% and I know that's not right... I know that they're hard to accurately read. :(

    Hmmm... Maybe you should just post a new pic tomorrow with a face shot (and the tattoo) so it can fully put everyone to shame.

    Some people just want to criticize and be negative, no matter where you go or what you post about, some people will just always want to argue, its the freedom the internet gives them to say things they wouldn't (or maybe some would) in person to someone's face. Just blow them off!!

    I personally am impressed and wish to you both the best because you both are making changes for healthier lives together! I wish my fiance would exercise with me, but at least he encourages me and he is proud of my measly 17 pound weight loss in 5 months, even if I cn't see it HE is very proud and brags, so why wouldn't you brag about your hubby's amazing progress and how hard he's worked? Kudos to you both!!

    Wowwww, some of you folks need to chill and take a little nap, who cares if the lady is getting some advert in there, like does it really matter if he achieved in the stated 30 days or not? It may be true, or it may not, who cares. Similarly who cares if the guy has a tattoo of Yogi Bear in 1 shot and not another, or he's holding his arm with the assistance of Mr Ed, like who cares. It certainly doesn't need multiple quotes and pastings to defend your derogatory comments.

    The lady has put some pics of her husband up there, because she's justifiably Proud of His Efforts, and I applaud you and your Husband. Well Done.

    This! I'm sorry that what started as a happy, proud thing for you (and rightly so) has turned into this much ridiculous crap! :noway: If you don't have anything nice to say...! He looks great! I think it is wonderful how you are bragging about him!! Good luck to both of you! I wish you all the best! :flowerforyou:

    Ok...time to put all the fighting to rest.

    First I apologize OP for jumping the gun about the pictures. At 1st glance all it seemed like was another infomercial for another MLM plan. Visalus is notorious for making outrageous claims and doubtful pictures. I probably would not have given them a 2nd thought if it had just been the pictures. I know a 3-4 people that are in MLM's that will do and say anything to sell their product so I overreacted. So sorry about that.

    I talked to a couple natural bodybuilders this morning at my gym about it. They explained with the right genetics and existing muscle that it is possible. They told me why the pictures looked so different and explained posture and lighting when taking before and after pictures is everything when you wish to show a drastic difference.

    So lets put all this to bed. I am the last person to belittle anyone's legitimate success as I have lost 100 pounds myself since March 2012.

    The OP was asking about pictures...let's see if I can get this to work. First one when I was 53 and 340 pounds.....next two in the last few days at 240 pounds......and I turned 55 today .....sure was easier 30 years ago!

    I'm not sure why showing legs is important but here are all of the originals - Taken every week. Hope this helps the negative people. It's really sad that the Success Stories are meant to lift people up but they then just get shot down.

    Cause upper body is just half of the body. ALL support starts from the bottom up, so it makes sense to work on the lower body too. Weak legs on a body are like weak framing on a house. While upper body looks pretty good, legs need some work.

    To be fair you can only see his calves there and yes they are a bit underdeveloped but maybe his quads and hams came up a bit? Only the OP knows for sure.
