510 - 210 is a good weight for you. Are you planning on getting in the gym & lifting or doing cardio ?

Lets get a more current weight & some measurements going. Neck, arms, shoulders, chest, waist, legs, calf's so on & so forth.

6 days a week a too much in my opinion. But better than nothing on that score of it. Post up some more photos of yourself in your swim trunks. If your gunna do this might as well go all out.

I agree 6 days is alot. I used to do it but since I've cut down to 3 or 4 days a week I've never had better results. Rest is important.

Will post pics. Had to travel today so I'm on my mobile. Still gotta go pump iron. Idk I've read about DNP for a year now I think I can use it safely but gotta earn it.

Really think 6 too much? I work a desk job most of the time, don't do sports, only 22, tons of energy

It really depends on what those 6 workouts actually involve. I know if I did the workouts I'm currently doing 6 days a week I would probably collapse before week 3.

DNP can be dangerous if you don't research it properly. I've ran it myself as have many others. The trick is research research research and at all costs avoiding the "more is better" mentality.

Having. Said that I very much respect you doing this on your own without the help of steroids or other compounds. That says something about your dedication and willingness to listen to constructive criticism. I'll be saying my congratulations now as I see nothing but further success in your future. Congrats.

Yeah Doc pretty much I've concluded that with DNP you don't get any chances, do not take even 1 extra no matter what. Every death is an OD. I think. And Thank you sir.


11/7/15 - 2300 total cal
Chest Day complete with HIIT
Posting Pics soon, Will again in...30 days? Measurements too

Thanks Thqmas. Looking in the mirror last night was the final straw. If I'm not doing literally everything I can do lose fat, I clearly don't want it *that* bad

Tried to upload pics last night but I can only upload really small pics due to file size restrictions. Will re do after breakfast

So, after just 3 days of counting calories and paying attention to macros, it's quite clear that even though I have the ability to eat clean, I can still eat enough to feed a small army. A 1000 cal breakfast, and that was only part of it, was still going to have oats. I also noticed that I need to properly "budget" them. I ended yesterday at 2300 but didn't have dinner. Need to work on that.

Will set a calendar reminder to do pics again in 30 days

208lbs this morning, btw.

As you can see my main problem area is my love handles. Stomach could use some work as well. Didn't bother doing legs, as my legs are actually pretty nice. Wtf right? I guess all those years of carrying around 400lbs made them strong like tree trunks lol. I lost my weight very slowly, so my skin is not that bad, but it's there, you can grab a good chunk.

Also, those red marks are from a hereditary auto immune disease called psoriasis. Mostly cosmetic, can affect the joints.
