met another goal
« on: Yesterday at 01:11:26 AM »
about a year ago i just got sick of being overweight and loosing muscle. after all the surgerys and metal parts in me i about gave up. i was up to 285lbs. first goal was 250. second goal that i just made is 220. now its on to 200. that was my weight when i retired. i thank zep bound and ALOT of work. ive always been a big guy but at 68 after LOTS of work my upper body has never been bigger. crap guys my wife even commented that im getting my 6 pack back. more like a 12 pack now but 20 more lbs and ill look as good as i did in my 30s and i just cant express how much better i feel not hauling that extra 60lbs along. im NEVER going back to being FAT. now if i could just find where i left my hair :o

Good work! I know it must feel incredible. A couple of years ago I lost just 20 pounds and couldn’t believe the difference. Now, if I pick up a 20 pound dumbbell, it’s really hard to imagine that I was carrying that around everywhere I went. What you’ve done is remarkable.

the zep bound helped but it still takes eating less when your brain says no. i now do alot of protein and little to no sweets. i also work out at least an hour every day. my upper body strength is back to my 30 year old level but the lower body is full of steel and im afraid to do much. so its mostly stretches and the wifes pelton bike
