on my 35th birthday I looked in the mirror disgusted with my dad bod. So I did something about it. ill be 37 this week. so near 2 years of work.. edit: I'm a towering 5'4" just to get an idea of stats.
I started natural and lost a total of 25 pounds over the first few months, then I spent the last 18 months or so gaining while staying relatively lean. Starting weight was around 185 around 25% BF, got down to about 160, and currently 180 pounds around 10% body fat. learned a lot about nutrition and training through trial an error as well as doing a ton of research, and im pretty happy where I am, but of course still a work in progress.
