2007 Transformation Contest

I started out as a morbidly obese teen with alot of physical and confidence related issues. My last official stats were from Aug. 2005, when I weighed in at 307lbs at 6′. I had 12″ arms so you can assume my bf%. I’d say at least 45%.

I was very unhealthy, with high blood pressure, bad knees [which still haunt me], and I close to the top of the waiting list to get Diabetes.

The things that really bothered me however, was not being able to wear tee-shirts, not being able to fit in my desks at school, and just not being able to do anything socially.
I had no friends. I simply covered up, as I didn’t have the confidence to talk to anyone. I grew my hair over 2 feet long, so as to cover my face, to make it appear “slimmer”.

Anyway, it was bad times. In January of this year I decided to make a change. Basically all I did was eat less and cut some crap out of my diet. I got down to a steady 240lbs in a few months, and over summer I was turned to PSMF, an extreme starvation diet. I didn’t know jack about nutrition then, so I went for it. I lost 20lbs which I somehow managed to keep off until present day.

December; I started my first ever “proper” diet and exercise regime. So far the scale hasn’t moved, which is discouraging at times, but I can literally see my bf% drop in the mirror, which is always good.

Now, as for my goal in this 12 week period. I’m trying to cut down to where I’ll look good for summer; whether that’s 12%, 14% or 16%…Who knows. My goal weight is 180lbs. I can’t predict exactly what weight I’ll be happy with what I see in the mirror though. So we’ll have to find out.
My goal is to have that “Abercrombie model” look for this summer, which is so often referred to on this site as being homosexual, but that’s where I am currently in terms of muscle mass. An athletic look, I suppose.
