Hey guys been a couple years since i've been around here and about the same since ive been working out.

just a couple months i was 262 5'11 i've come down to 227 just eating right no more fast food and junk.

Im starting to hit the weights again and do cardio first thing in the morning when I wake up. I'll post some pics of where I started to where I end up.

I had success with keto before and next monday im starting it again ~2200 calories eating more on days where I am doing lifts, gotta carb up before to get some gains.

Going to start with 5/3/1 somebody showed me it the last time I was around here. See you guys around good luck with your lifting.

me at 260 below, let myself go but its never too late.

It feels good that you all got my back.

in the middle of moving so I can’t take my weight. The rolls on my back are 98% gone. So far I’ve done cardio every morning: rowing, running and stationary bike. I hit the weights today for a light workout doing full body. As I don’t know when I’ll have access to a gym in the next couple of days.

havent started keto had a lapse yesterday and ate some ice cream but other than that been eating a lot of of good food. Steak, veggies, and complex carbs. Hopefully I’ll be finished moving by Friday and I can start a good routine.

good luck on your lifts. I’ll post some pictures later today.

Started keto this morning my meal plan is as follows: 2 eggs 3 strips of bacon for breakfast, made chili for the week ground beef with ground sausage, 50grams of macadamia nuts, 1 avocado with salt and pepper, depending on hunger might have chicken fried in coconut butter.

Woke up at 5 immediately went on stationary bike for 30 minutes at about 60%, took some BCAAs while biking, had a scoop of gold standard whey immediately after. Going to do another full body workout today I’m stuck using the apartment gym which is minimal as I’m in a new city and haven’t joined a gym. Weighed myself when I woke up 222.

Cheers guys and goodluck on your lifts.

Started GVT tonight.

10/10 flat bench with a pair of 20s
10-10 single arm bent over row with a 20
3/12 with incline flys using 15lbs
3/12 cable pull into neck with 30 lbs

followed it up with planks and toes to the sky(or what ever they are called) for core.

its amazing how fast my muscles start to come back they went from flabby to having blood in them in just a couple weeks.

been eating good and staying in ketosis.

weighed myself at 212 today must be losing water weight. Pictures coming Friday.

Good progress, Moose.

Am assuming yer using an app like MyFitnessPal to track yer meals against yer TDEE? Doing so will help ye to fine-tune along the way.

As per keto, if yer body does well on high protein / high fat / low carb then go for it! Its the caloric deficit that will work the magic so dont be afraid to add in some carbs if ye start feeling lethargic in the gym or having trouble sleeping. Again, back to yer total intake vs yer TDEE - stay in that mild deficit and lose the weight slowly.

Keep training hard!
