    Thanks so much for the kind words ladies! I think I will take your advice and continue to strive for my goal of 150 and re-evaluate there.
    The only word that comes to mind is AMAZING! You look good, just one question, how did you get rid of that belly OMG you must share pronto!

    #1 culprit of that belly was beer. I haven't touched the stuff since September.

    Well done fella. You smashed it...

    If your bf% of 17.3 is still correct then you will need to lose about 11 - 12 lbs to get down to 10% and you should see a massive difference in definition then. Given that you are seeing the beginning of definition around your delts especially I take it you have a decent weights programme in place.

    When you get there you can go a good solid bulk to pack some more muscle on your frame. If you have the discipline to get this far bulking should be relatively easy for you with minimal fat gain. You will look like a demi god...

    Awesome work!
    You look great and very handsome. So much younger as well.
    I think if you feel like you should lose more then go for it.
    I am about 13 lbs from my goal weight and I am already thinking about lowering it another 10 lbs once I reach it.

    Congrats so far!

    Excellent job - in terms of weight - without knowing your stats it's hard to say, but I would get there and se how you look and feel - only you can tell when enough's enough!
    Amazing job so far, well done - never mind how much weight you've lost - you look a whole lot younger too, great dedication!

    Thanks man, that's the plan. For strength training I've started p90x again. Everything I do is at least 15-20 reps as I'm still at a calorie deficit and trying to lean out before I worry about bulking at all.

    You have made amazing progress! I think you look awesome. I think you should lose that 10 and see how you feel then...you can always go down a few more if you think it would make you feel better!

    You should be very proud!!!!

    Wow, well done, you look brilliant! You say you are avoiding beer, are you avoiding all alcohol? Well done, I know it's especially hard around the holiday season, you've done an amazing job and you should be so proud.

    Thank you.

    I gave up beer all together, I enjoy it WAY too much, and when I do, my food decision making skills go down the toilet. However over the past 4 months I've had a wedding, my birthday, thanksgiving, xmas, and new years all to contend with. At each one of those I strayed from my diet, and those are the only times I've had alcohol... but I've been sticking to vodka and diet tonic, or vodka and soda water.
