My official 1 year transformation I've lost a total of 9 inches off my waist, learned so much about my body and have become a much stronger person all around. It took so much dedication, focus and mental strength over the past year to hit the gym hard everyday. Hundreds of days of semi-fasted early morning cardio, thousands of miles/hours that I walked/jogged, stair master, etc. hundreds of pounds of protein and veggies that I have consumed. I could literally count the days that I have missed at the gym on my hands since the year started. My diet hasn't been perfect, but I was really able to dial in my #macros over the last few months and the results don't lie. #Mealprep and tracking #macros are crucial to seeing results. I am so exited to see what my new lifestyle has for me in the future! I have a sad face in my current picture because I can't believe I ever let myself get so overweight! #teamnodaysoff #transformationtuesday #transformation #focus #dedication #lifestyle #fit #lats #back #fatloss #fat2fit #vtaper #hardworkpaysoff #relaxedpose #physique #inthemaking #weights #reps #cardio #diet #cleaneating #protein #veggies #carbcycling #strongestihaveeverbeen #extraskinyunogoaway lol #cantfindpantsthatfit

I am 5'9" and over the years gained a substantial amount of weight. I got up to the point where my waist was over 36 inches, and I got so depressed that I just ate and drank more. The most I weighed was over 210lbs, gained so much weight I stopped checking. One year ago I decided to make a change, and I will never look back. I eat my macros, workout and focus on being a better person each and every day! Meal prep is KEY to success!! Now my waist is at 27" & chest 43" and stronger than ever.

I have used IIFYM, Power Bodybuilding for 6 months and living each day to the fullest. It is amazing to see what is under the fat once it is gone, all my hard work paid off!

Macros: 188P / 215C / 60F ~2150 calories

Refeed every 7-10 days when I carb load ~400 carbs


This is a relaxed depleted (low carb/keto for 15 days, which I will never do again) pose I am attaching, since I am relaxed in the first heavy photo.

    Very strange. Photobucket doesn't want to show up.
    I never have problems with imgur.com. With imgur.com all you have to do is click on the picture, then on the right side copy the bbcode link and paste it in your message.

    Seems like you got it to work now. I see the picture.

    Good job, but why all the hashtags? At one point you had a whole paragraph dedicated to them. Just confused, but impressed by your progress.
