Contrary to the title, no plastic is involved.


I use to be really overweight, probably obese but not morbid obese.

Winter (Jan/Feb) 2006 - 5'10'' and 250 - 260 lbs.
I need to find some old photos and scan them (use to be photo shy)

I didn't know much about diet or exercising. I cut out junk food, 3 meals per a day and more cardio then weights.

October 2006 - 5'10'' 180lbs
I began to eat 6 meals a day, lifted more weights and did the same amount of cardio.

March 2007 - 5'10'' 150lbs
Ok I dropped down to 150lbs, too frail for my frame. I began a real heavy lifting regime. I ate clean majority of times except for finals (the old stress habits still in me)

Jan 2008 - 5'10'' 175lbs
I maintained as much as possible to my goal of 165lbs. I think there's still some ways to go but it's progress.

My lower abdominal/back sucks, but that's life.

I use to be the fat kid they teased in school. I met up with some old high school friends/acquaintances, hard to recognize me now compared to high school.

WOW! Way to go! You look HUGE (in a good way) compared to the first pics! Keep it up! You really look a lot different with hair :)

A lot of these pictures are taken in the morning except for the most recent. I wear glasses when I just wake up. Then I wear contacts and with hair, I look very different in the first photo.

I think I've maintained to a good weight. If people think I should bulk or cut, I'm free to suggestions.
