Before and After

97muscle · 06-19-2006, 04:33 PM

I think it would be a good idea to show some before and after pics so that people can see what true hard work looks like. I would be the first but I am in the middle of my transformation so I don't have any progression pics.

I’m with you. I have the before picture… can’t wait to see the after.

**skelooth** · 06-19-2006, 06:48 PM

Here's my story....

1997 I hit a peak of 295lbs after being on lithium, thorozine, and zoloft.

I came off of it, and lost 100lbs by 1999

Then over the years I slowly put weight back... until reaching the same weight again in 2004

This time, instead of hiding from the camera like most fat men do, I started taking progress pictures in December 2004

I have been making consistent but slow progress ever since.. here's a picture between now and then with me standing in my old 48" waist pants

It is now june 2006, 2 years later, and this is me now

But I am VERY FAR from finished. I will be competitive one day.... because I will get my bodyfat undercontrol. Failure just is not an option.

Im sorry I couldn't provide a true 'after' picture.

Wow, skelooth great story and excellent progress. There is no doubt in my mind that you will compete sometime soon. Good luck to you.

**BobThePotato** · 06-19-2006, 08:30 PM

I unfortunatly dont have any progression pics, but I started at 120lbs and am sitting around 200lbs after about 2 years of training.

Thanks for all of the participation so far. We have a lot of great success stories here and I thought it would be nice to bring them all together. Thanks again, and in I will have some progress pics soon.

**antihero** · 06-19-2006, 09:35 PM

great work skelooth & krzna....

**skelooth** · 06-19-2006, 10:23 PM

How did I not see these pictures?

Krzna, you cut down like a mofo, awesome job! Your before picture isn't even a distant shade of what you are now! You are a beast

But I bet I can still out eat you.

**NewSpawn** · 06-19-2006, 11:00 PM

these were taken around march of last year. i was at a bw of 220 to 225ish. a year earlier i was pushin 240. needless to say i don't have pics from that era. my height is 5'8.

**Trick D** · 06-19-2006, 11:04 PM

New Spawn is the man. Krzna is beastly, and skelooth has made some damn good progress. I would love to have his arms... bastard.

**NewSpawn** · 06-19-2006, 11:04 PM

these wer taken within the last few weeks........bw 185>188ish

**NewSpawn** · 06-19-2006, 11:06 PM

everybody here has made great progress and all should be extremely proud.

**skelooth** · 06-19-2006, 11:14 PM

Wow, I can't believe how much more youthful you look in your current pictures! It's more than just not having the glasses on. Very cool bro!

I hope EME stops by and posts his before/afters. I dropped my jaw on the ground when I saw what he looked like as a young teen vs. now. I think it's safe to say that his life would have been DRASTICALLY different had he not decided to lift weights

**Trick D** · 06-19-2006, 11:17 PM

Holy Horseshoes!!! Damn Spawn, I don't check your log for awhile and you blow up. You look diesel man. Your legs and arms are insane. Really looking 300% better every few weeks. Nice posing too.

**EME** · 06-19-2006, 11:47 PM

Well, since you asked.

Age 15 - 10th Grade

2004

2005

Unfortunately, however, I started out 2006 like this..

So, we'll have to wait and see what the rest of 2006 and 2007 have in store!

- EME

p.s.

NewSpawn... you are looking AWESOME bro... keep up the GREAT work! :clapping:

Atleast you got to read the precontest bible in bed. I really need to get my hands on that. Suppose to be a fantastic read. I love the EME pics, definitely the ones from yesteryear.
