Wise up
So, I first thought to reply with something that may have gotten me banned, second thought was to not reply at all. Yet you chose to speak stupidly on my thread, so I am responding.
First - if what you say is true, then those 400+ pound powerlifters that are all morbidly obese when it comes to body fat percentage or BMI are all idiots.
Second - the use of steroids / gear / juice / etc. is not a magic substance. I know this clearly. It is a weapon added to an arsenal to assist one in obtaining their personal goals. It is something used along with diet, training, supplements etc.
Third - I am using these compounds (I have done my due diligence in research) to help both assist me in keeping the muscle mass which I already have during my calorie deficient diet from wasting, and to assist in recovery from intense training and past injuries.
Fourth - I am not trying to get a six pack, nor am I trying to be a pretty boy. When I took the picture, I felt disgusted with the way in which I looked, was not sucking in my gut, flexing any muscles, etc. I was not trying to impress social media followers with the best angle and lighting. I could have easily done the above and looked differently. As I signed my post (which by the way I have found through experience most people don't have any more) I signed by saying "Always with integrity". I am willing to bare myself in front of a "brotherhood" of like minded people so that they can witness me in true dedication to making my dream become a reality.
Fifth - I have been a moderator on a board "ironlifter.com". I have been a veteran on a few boards. For you to have earned such status and be allowed by administration to speak in such a way, makes me question your worthiness. Think on that before you make a negative statement to a person willing to share openly their personal information and their journey on bettering themselves.
Last - Some will say I took that comment too personally. And in the spirit of integrity, I may have. Yet I will say this, I posted earlier today the lack of support I have received in all aspects when it comes to me in this journey. I am called names from those whom also call themselves my friends and family. So, yes, I take such a thing personal.
I shall end this in saying I move forward, offer forgiveness to Couchlockd for his comment, and will continue to push on with my journey. As when it comes to changing one's physique, only the person themselves can effect the change.

It's your life and your body bro. Try finding a fun cardio machine. I like using a rower. I can "race" myself every day. Keep on your diet and to tell with the naysayers. You are doing this for you. If you don't believe in you no one else will. Use that prick as motivation and in 11 more weeks post a finished result a demand an apology. Lol.

I’ll follow your journey, brother. Read up on your diet, you mentioned eggs, so I wanted to throw out the suggestion of gettin liquid egg whites. They are simply superb. Google it, you can get it on amazon or at your local grocery store for a few more pennies. And while most folks cook them, I prefer to just turn it up and drink from the carton. Easy protein and you can get it with no flavor whatsoever, which I prefer
I’m 52 years old, 182 pounds and I am leaning out big time these days. So, it can be done, just find the right combo of gear.
And I don’t eat 6 times a day. I find the common knowledge on diet among bodybuilders to be largely outdated and I pay zero attention to it. Simply put, build muscle, eat sensibly, and fat will leave.

Appreciate the support brother. I use the Elliptical at the gym, thinking of doing the same here at the hotel on off days from the gym. Decent small gym here at the hotel

Thanks for the follow my brother. I may try the eggs you speak of. I tried the liquid egg whites a few years back as a substitute for milk in my shakes... yucky LOL. So farmy meal plan has worked well for me. I see less weight on the scale each week (which I should not be weighing each week) and my belt has gone down a notch and almost ready to go down another already. So my leaning out plan is ahead of schedule from what I was expecting, so dedication truly does pay off.

Why not weigh every week? Nothing wrong with it. You know the journey you’re on, nothing weird about making weekly adjustments to the calorie count.
And yea, I don’t put that stuff in shakes. 8 oz carton, pop and drop. Done.

Throw the scale and BF% out the window. Look in a mirror. That's your progress report. Take a weekly selfie. Stress will keep weight on you. Sounds like you have an overactive mind to a degree. Could be counter productive to you to focus on numbers. And Jack that cardio up as much as you can!

Great advice. 8 bucks for six 8oz cartons at Costco. Great for building or dieting.

I pour those liquid egg whites on my cereal post workout. Chug half a carton after a meal when I’m growing. Makes a great breakfast on its own too.

Was advised not to weigh in each week. Though your thoughts on it mimic mine. It allows me to know where I stand and if something needs to be tweaked.
