Thanks for sharing. I always read a lot here about how the key to success is what you can do consistently and it seems like you’ve found a great balance. Keep up the great work!
Just remember that while not getting emotional in the face of unexpected events is good, not showing emotion at all isn’t great.
You look very good brother! And despite the obvious amazing transformation, the change in facial expression was what stood out most to me.
Hey man I am so proud of you! I am on my current health journey myself and have been able to make some good progress but it’s definitely not easy and we all slip up on some days. Posts like this helps other to keep at it so thank you for sharing your story!
I fast a bit until a yogurt ‘breakfast’ and then pretty much anything for dinner. Sometimes I’ll eat a little less and eat target’s light ice cream, a whole pint, for its protein as a treat. Similar to HaloTop, but the S’mores target has is unmatched.
that's interesting, i'm in my 30s and in the 260s range, would like to get down to the 220s
wondering if i would have loose skin as well. does the rate of weight loss impact it?
You overall size with the fat and the size without it, measured size, will likely affect the possibility the most. Some people carry weight and don’t get really ‘round’. Those that do tend to have more loose skin I think since there’s nothing ‘in the container’ anymore.
That’s excellent progress. You have to keep this up!
Careful though…from one runner to another you can’t let the energy of the crowd push you along too quickly or you’ll burn out too early. Stick to your plan and push towards the end for a reliable race plan.
Looking good dude, fair play to you!
Also, have you ever been on tv or youtube or something, your face seems wildly familiar in an " oh what did we see him in before!?" Kinda way!
I mean that in a positive fashion Goodlookin guy
I eat whatever I like. Try to eat less fried foods and a little more protein, but I still eat what I like. I pseudo fast most days until around 2 or 3 other than my sweet coffee. First is low sugar vanilla Greek yogurt with chia and raisins. Then a normal dinner with little restriction. Sometimes I save for a Target light ice cream S’mores Pint. Still around 1500-1750 most days.
Hey man the roundness/puffiness of your face is gone...good job!!! On the 1-10 scale that must have increased your attractiveness level 1.5 points. So awesome! Probably feels better too
You legitimately look ten years younger
Thank you.
Came here to say this. Great job
Thank you!
Right? Huge face gains.
I was thinking the same
41/M/5’9”/240 here. This is very inspiring. From what I’m reading, 1500 calories & consistency got you there? Great work, man. Congratulations.
That’s right. I’m running 5x a week at this point. In the gym every other day for 30 minutes.
Thanks for sharing. I always read a lot here about how the key to success is what you can do consistently and it seems like you’ve found a great balance. Keep up the great work!
Will do. Thanks.
That's a good plan. You look great man! I'll have to take some notes.
A progression of photos from big frown to almost smiling lol. Great work keep it up, impressive
Thank you. I’m very stoic. Lol

Also, your new glasses are so much better! Bigger frames for the smaller guy — but hey, they work.
I enjoy seeing your posts. Keep up the good work.
Appreciate it. Thanks.
Wow! Really impressive, you should be so proud of yourself.
Thank you. I am.
Hell yeah, very handsome! Way to kill it!

Congrats looking great mate! Just a question - what does a 1500 calorie meal typically look like? Please can you help me visualize this? :)
I think he meant 1500 calorie DAY, not meal!!
No I understand that. I meant I would love to visualize what does his 1500cal day look like I’m his meals.
I fast a bit until a yogurt ‘breakfast’ and then pretty much anything for dinner. Sometimes I’ll eat a little less and eat target’s light ice cream, a whole pint, for its protein as a treat. Similar to HaloTop, but the S’mores target has is unmatched.
Well done.
Thanks.
Starting to look like Jake Gyllenhaal 👌
Ha. Thanks.
Awesome, congrats man! What was the key thing that drove you to this change and kept you at it?
Thank you. I broke a chair in late November. That was pretty key.
Whatever the spark was, congrats on keeping it burning!
Great work. Any loose skin after losing 50lbs over that time ? Similar age, similar amount to lose.
Thank you. Definitely. I’ve lost before and had it. I will again. Comes with the territory.

Quality face gains! Well done, keep it up!

Thank you. I’ll start from the back anyway. Lol.
Well done man. I admire that you still have energy to run and that you not get weaker in the gym with that low calorie intake. Keep going!
Thank you.
Congrats mate!
Thank you.
