Hello everyone! I have found so much useful info on this forum that I had to become a member and also contribute as I learn. When I was 21 I was a gym rat with a respectable body, but after years of stress I let my self go, and now at 29 I find myself getting back there. Seven months ago I completely changed my eating habits and lifestyle and within five months I had already dropped 68lb without exercising from my starting point at 320lb. Two months ago I bought the book "Huge in a Hurry" by Chad Waterbury to have as a starting point for my workout routine and joined the gym. I'm 6'2" and the day I joined the gym my weight was 252lb and BF was at 28%. As of today I weigh 238lb and my BF is at 24%. I look like a completely different human being in all aspects. So far I've done everything naturally, but my goal is 220lb at 10% BF, so I might need some "help" to get me there, and this forum has been a godsend.![]()
