    I wanted to post these pics today because tomorrow marks the end of a phase in my transformation process. Tomorrow I begin bulking up for the first time, I'm excited and a bit nervous! For the longest time I've been in a constant deficit and I'm ready to see some actual gains. I woke up on June 11th 2011 sick of how my life was headed. I was 200lbs overweight, a hermit with severe social anxiety, and had no clue on how to control my IBS. Being obese triggered my anxiety in public which triggered my IBS symptoms, effectively making my house the only safe place to be.

    I didn't want to live that way anymore, so I did some research online which ultimately lead me to making an MFP account. Along the way I've learned a TON; counting calories, what my TDEE is, the benefits of hitting your macro goals, understanding water weight, strength training for fat loss etc.... I soaked it all up. Combining that with some hard work and dedication this is the result of all of my work, I hope this helps motivate and inspire others to keep at it!

    Starting: 20yo 370lbs
    Current: 23yo 170lbs

    Thank you to everyone in advance!

    Congrats! I envy you; I wish I had the info we both have now when I was your age instead of 10 years older. You look super happy and confidant now!

    Way to go man!! I'm not even a month in on starting a diet/transformation and seeing this really motivates me. I too, could lose 200 lbs. Can I ask what you did? I haven't started a gym routine yet, but I was hoping to find something that will help lose weight and not add bulk.

    Awesome work! And 2 years in the making, not an overnight transformation (something 3 months into my workouts & lifestyle change I am struggling with)! Good luck on your next chapter, keep it up! Hope the social anxiety has shrunk too. It's horrible how much we let our self image control our lives.
