Before/Current (pics)

I'm not quite where I want to be yet, but I'm definitely closer than I've ever been. It's not an amazing transformation or anything, but I think there's definitely an improvement - please just disregard the terrible chest hair and moob in the before pic :S)

My story (briefly), I've been Primal (Paleo) for over a year now, but had some small slip-ups along the way. The before pic is not at my worst; it's about 10 lbs down from my worst, having lost it prior to starting Primal using the Eat Clean (which I'd done for about a year as well).

So before pick is at about 230-235lbs, I'm guessing.

The 'current' pic is today. I'm at my lowest since probably high school - 201 lbs (my goal weight was originally 200 but I'd like to see 190).

I'm hoping my 'after' pic will come in a couple months. I've started working out, which I'm hoping will help my body comp (I've always played sports but never really anything for strength in the past few years so hoping to have some impressive after pics to post on here).

    I reealllyy don't understand the manscaping thing. Unless you're Robin Williams, you're a guy and you have hair. Be proud. :)

    Nice job so far!

    Haha, thanks! :p

    It may not show as much in this pic, but I still have hair. I just trim it a bit so that it's not all clumps, which in my opinion doesn't look great. Good to know that if I get lazy though and let it grow free, some women like the hair. :)
