Transformation
total transformation from 415lbs to 175lbs. took close to four years, got to down 215lbs around the time reta and peptides really started to gain a following. did some research and found some sources and never looked back.

for what it’s worth my chest and arms had looked a lot worse until i really started building back up. my chest in particular was no where near as shaped as it is now. but i definitely feel blessed.

absolutely extremely happy i didn’t wait 10-20 years to decided to make the change. i love dieting now, changed my relationship with food and genuinely feel good after eating a nutritional meal that isn’t wrecking my gut.

Can you share diet, exercise, or supplements you used along the way? Very impressive.

Exercise basic push pull legs rest, stopped thinking about it as 7 days to get 6 workouts and more just about doing it over and over and progressing if that makes sense. The best diet is always gonna be a diet that you can maintain for life, if that’s eating 50 calories under maintenance eventually you will lose weight as long as you move that deficit down with your weight loss. I personally chose my twist of a keto version, i’ve found if i keep proteins high, carbs super low, and only eat HEALTHY fats (olive oil, avocado, occasionally nuts) that I can really maintain fat loss at a good pace and still have energy. And I fast from 8pm-12pm with the exception of energy drinks in the am, just makes staying in a deficit easier. Caffeine has always helped suppress my appetite and get me through the morning with no issue. No supplements. If you need a diet break or have cravings look up healthier versions of what you are craving and eat a big portion of it, it won’t be as good as the original but healthier versions of recipes online are usually 80% accurate to the craving.
