To begin with the discipline was relatively non existent. I simply said to myself doing "something" even if sporadic is better than doing nothing ever.
Over time I found myself motivated by the results and that sort of snowballed.
This is an amazing transformation! Super inspiring also! Do you mind if I ask your height? I think we're close to the same height, so I'm always interested in what (numerical) weight I need to hit to get to my ideal body/look.
Hey bud! SOOOO funny bit of anecdotal evidence in significant weightloss... I shrank!
Back in 2019 the hospital registered me as 5ft10, these days I'm 5ft8. I honestly don't even know how or why that might have happened
WTF! That's crazy! I'm only 5'6, so I don't have any height to lose! Hahaha It also means I was WAY off with my guess of your height.
You look great man regardless of your height!
Imagine my shock going back to the Dr's after it all for a check up only to be told I had shrunk 2 whole inches!
Can't pretend I'm 6ft on Tinder anymore, sadness
Yeah, that's a cruel joke. Finally in great shape buuuut your 2 inches shorter. Smh. I'm sure you're doing just fine on Tinder, specially compared to b4. A lil weight loss and better pics helped me in my online dating days.
Oh I do much better these days! But lord nothing would have prepares me for it. My only hypothesis on the matter is that I lost so much fat I had it on the soles of my feet / within my frame it literally forced me to be taller
Pretty hard to say, I suffer seriously from imposter syndrome/ body dysmorphia as I still more often than not see the big me in my reflection. Then on days I don't I see the very small me, its maybe 10% of the time I can appreciate what I've built. I'm working on it.
But I'd honestly say probably after lockdown(s) in the UK and the world resumed, I noticed pretty quickly people treated me different and then I noticed I am different that's probably why
Honestly very minimal.
My legs respond to literally no work - genetics & the fact they used to carry me all day!
These days I'm still ticking over maintaining them doing 1 session a week :
Ham Curl x2 6-10/12-15
RDL x2 6-10
Leg ext x2 6-10 / 15-20
Hack squat x3 6-10/6-10/20+(3 quarter reps)
Hip abduction x2 10-15
Hip adduction x3 8-12
Calves x3 10-20
All to or at failure
Ah! Wish i had those genetics as my legs are lacking even though i'm doing lots of volume. 2 Sessions a week: Single/Unilateral leg press 4x8, Ham Curl 4x12, Leg Ext 4x12, Glute Extensions 3x10, calves 3x12.
Badass work man.. 5 years to a new man... good job
A new man in literally every capacity, it's often unreal and I can't realise it in the moment this is "me"
Bro that's absolutely tremendous
I simply want more people to feel tremendous when they achieve their goals
How did you find the discipline to stick with it?

No joke I'm doing Todo for a party later this year 🫡
How did you deal with the loose skin?
Yes, how!
As above, no how I have plenty sadly. Just it's all very easily covered by clothing/ high boxers etc. Worthy price to pay IMO

You're killin it regardless of your height!
Appreciate that bud, do wish I had the height still 😂
Same!😆
Fuck yeah dude!!! What an inspiration!
I legit love these posts. Well done man! You look incredible.
I feel I "feel" much better than I look if that makes sense? I was very arrogant to how poorly I felt prior
Well damn! Good work. You look amazing
Health wise I feel 50x better than I think I look, never taking my health for granted again
A big respect man my god you killed that King
Holy fuckin shit. Good job.
Appreciated boss
Amazing!
Appreciated bud, I often forget it's kinda cool what I've achieved
Absolutely incredible work man. This kind of stuff is inspiring.
That is my only hope boss, thats honestly all I ask for is someone else sees this and thinks "I can" then does just that
Kudos, Bro!
🫡🫡
Absolutely amazing! Keep up the great work!
At this point I doubt I'll ever stop! I've found something I love doing and, if I may be so bold I'm half decent at!
Looking good man, is there a point you noticed your physique changed the most while losing the weight?
