With all of the threads on weight loss/ wanting to lose weight I wanted to see if we could motivate some people with some pictures of it getting done.
After posting pics, brief summary of what you did to get there. I cut out carbs, refined sugar , and fried food coupled with an exercise regimen that started out just walking for an hour and doing push-ups in between songs on my iPod. First day I did 50 push-ups. Last day I was on the rig I did 1000 in the one hour walk. I now do 1000 crunches, 100-200 push-ups every day and work out with alternative weights( chains, sledge hammers, steel rods, etc) 325 Lbs  Attached File195lbs  Attached FileAlternative work out weight  Attached FileETA- Took me a year to lose 130 pounds and I have kept it off for over a year. |

Thank you everyone.
Now those of you who have dropped a person in weight post your pictures. You know you have them 
I know you don't like looking at pictures of yourself where you look like you have eaten a dwarf, but if you can help out your fellow ARFCOMMERS with pictures of your results, do it! BTW, don't let the age thing be an excuse. I was 48 in the first picture. Turned 50 this year. |

Good job to the guys who were willing to share photos.
Food is generally the hardest part for most people, simply because it needs to be a lifestyle not a diet. |

Thanks for making this thread OP. I needed the motivation and this really lit a fire under my ass to get back on it |

Wow, great job times 3.
No pics, but I dropped from a 32" pushing 33" waist in pants to a 31" sometimes 30" size in the last year. I was trying to lower cholesterol by changing just one meal a day (lunch) and walking the dog more. The weight loss was a surprise. And great. I was by no means big before, but the loss makes me more comfortable in my clothes. |

19 I gained 35 pounds after high school football and decided I should be skinny and look good in college instead of be fat and friend zoned constantly.
 
So I quit working two jobs and worked out after classes and food prepped 6 days a week. 
Finished at 5'6" 155 6.6% body fat. 5 years later I have gained 115lbs. Not a joke. 270lb and Miserable with myself. |

Sorry dude, that picture is no where near 6.6% body fat and I am calling BS on it. That pic is somewhere around 13-16% bodyfat. Didn't help I was ghostly pale white in the sunlight. I have a picture or two in a darker area I have more definition. I wasn't a lifter then, I was a runner. 6 incline miles a day with a little lifting. At 12-16 I am fairly pudgy. |
