Slightly worrying info for a n00b, considering the problems I'm having getting out of my calorie deficit (and I'm a dude, so DOH yeah I want muscles) - BUT, still want to tag this post for future reference :)

Will do. Looks like I'm gonna have to add a lot of almonds to my diet hehe

Thanks Sara :)

Weight June 4, 2013: 100.8 kg (222.23 lbs) Weight June 11, 2013: 98.5 kg (217.15 lbs) Been on 1400 calories for the second week in a row, lifting more and more, but still no bodybuilder ;) - squats 85 kg, deadlift 100 kg, bench press 65 kg, just to give an idea. I lift 4 days a week, still on the earlier mentioned program.…

This helps BIG TIME - thanks ncahill ! - with the specifics I can also check if I'm crazy or not (I thought I noticed the collar bones too, but didn't want to get my hopes up too high ;) )

Haha I KNEW some one was going to mention that! Mirror image as opposed to having someone else take the pic ;)

You are now my favourite person. EVER. :)

So, I've been lifting for a bit over 2 weeks. Going for bigger and bigger weights, following the program that rtalencar85 set up for me, lifting more and more each time. I'm no bodybuilder yet, but was proud to have squatted 75 kg 5x5 yesterday, looking forward to deadlifting 90 kg tomorrow. That's about double what I…

I think it's probably more because you're "the new one" - I've been going to my gym for only a few weeks, and the first week I DID get stared at. Now I think they've figured out I'm a regular now, so they're not paying much attention anymore. On the plus side - my looking like I don't know what I'm doing has gotten me a…

Will post an update tomorrow morning, to keep with my weekly weigh-in - not quite sure how the body is looking, but I upped my cals to 1400 AND started the training program that rtalencar85 set up for me. I don't THINK I've lost any weight this week, but hoping there's a visible difference????

NatalieG926 and lydiatapia, you've made my day, especially coming from 2 people with such awesome transformations themselves! :)

About 77 lbs difference.

Oh, and Charisma Carpenter @JennLyn1102

You are officially my new best friend :)

Will do my best, promise :)

And thankfully, WE have the GO-GOs to make sure we got the beat ;)

Well I said Kirsten Stewart earlier, but I'll give you some Winona Ryder too ;)

Ok, the training regime seems to be in place, I'll be starting rtalencar85's program on Monday. That just leaves the food issues - yeah, the TOUGH part. What to eat, how much, calories, macros, number of meals... Yeah, I'm terrified of gaining fat back, so I gotta work on this one. No idea where to start exactly, but...…

Height: 6'2" (189 cm) Age/Gender: 42 yo Male Highest weight- 364 lbs (165 kg - probably higher but I couldn't find a scale that could handle me) Current Weight- 219 lbs (99.2 kg) Current body fat - 19.8 % - measured at the gym Lowest weight- 165 lbs (75 kg) at age 24, but that was QUITE underweight. Now I'm at my lowest…

This one's a no-brainer - 100% Kristen Stewart!

Charisma Carpenter

Wow, AWESOME - I'll look forward to your PM then! Definitely hoping for a bit more specific, like... "accessory"? Cause if you want me to work out with a purse they're gonna make fun of me at the gym ;)

Of course you were. *I* would NEVER burst in to song and/or dance in the middle of the hallway here at work, causing several coworkers to look at me funny and one of them to sigh loudly. Nope, not me. *hides*

Hmmm, this is as good a place to start as any... Been on MFP for awhile now - started by lurking, then started logging my food, then my exercise, just recently started getting into the forum thing. So... the next step is getting some friends on here? I SUCK at pushing the "add as friend" button myself, though - a bit shy…

Monday through Thursday, all the time I want. Also Sunday evening if I push it. It's only because I spend my weekends on the countryside, where hiking and mountainbiking are more the WOD

WHOOPS my bad - misunderstood ya. You Are Your Own Gym (#YAYOG) app for iphone. NOT sure of the names of all these, but you'll get the gist. Basically, pushups, squats, planks, bicycle squats, hanging knee lifts if I can find something to hang from (I SUCK at these), dips, and that thingie where I do a pullup from a lying…
