shoutouts from an ex lazy ass computer nerd with a beer belly.

[mekler]

hey guys, i was just doing some measurements (dont ask.. lol) and was feeling pretty damn good about the progress i've had over the past year and a half. just wanted to give shoutouts to everyone on this board (and a few others) for all the great advice that's come my way, and i dont even mean about juice, just working out/life in general. if it wasnt for these boards, i dont think i could have kept going as long as i have, and now weight lifting has become a passion and a lifestyle instead of something to show off to your friends. anyways, before this gets all sappy, haha, thanks to everyone out there giving good, solid advice. you really do make a difference out there, so keep it coming.

(the beer belly still remains, i cant give up my new castle!)

by the way.. i've never used juice for any gains that i've made, just been busting my ass in the weight room. =)

Congrats bro, always nice to see people getting some gains naturally before jumping on. Glad to hear it's going well, keep up the good work!

How much weight have you lost?

[mekler]

i've lost about 60lbs total, most of it being fat, although the loss of muscle was ~20lbs which i wasnt really happy with, but that was due to my own ignorance. then i changed my diet a little more, began to put on lean muscle mass (with a little fat too), the lowest i had my bf down to was ~17%, and btw all the bf measurements were done with calipers so this is only an estimate. regardless, it still shows a damn good change in bf %. my height is 67 inches (5'7), and i'm 20 years old.

5/2001
215lbs
~29% bf

10/2002
now at 167lbs
~19% bf

[rangerdudeleads]

congrats bro thats a great change in weight and very hard to do with a lot of people but if done it means a lot of dedication and I imagine discipline so you ought to be real proud of yourself cause you have done what a lot of people wants to do.... but dont. Good job bro
