Started a cut August 1st was around 132lbs
Today (23 Oct 26) I’m now 127lbs. Probably gonna maintain and just build muscle from here on out.

Starting weight for weight loss: 140kg
Starting weight for gym: 110kg
Current weight: 71kg
Age: 33
Height: 165cm

My original goal weight was 60kg but I’m more than happy with my current weight, so just focusing on muscle gain at the moment!

I go to the gym 5-6 times a week on a pull, push, glutes & hamstrings, calves & quads routine

I started at my gym last July because I wanted to fit in my car again and get my BMI low enough to be safe for surgery (gallbladder removal). Turns out I LOVE the gym...and it's working. My instructor just gave me some leggings she was going to throw out. I thought she was setting me a new weight loss goal. I fit them. I had no idea what size I am. Now I know I fit into Reebok and Les Mills branded small leggings. I was an XXXL a year ago. So happy!☺️

Long 4 years culminating a very mid build, but I love it!

Idk what bodyfat I was, but 120lbs -> 135lbs

Hey just wanted to share something with you guys that is genuinely the best thing that I’ve ever done.
I was in a very bad spot mentally this January so I decided that I needed to work on myself and even though loosing the weight and improving my eating habits somethings don’t disappear just like that especially now am still struggling with anxiety and depression but i guess I found a way to cope with it for now and those 2 hours in the gym are the best part in my days and i hope to keep improving (big rant sorry) went from 130kg to 76kg

This is an older transformation. I am back to looking like a blob due to work and stress. Anyways, it took me one year for the transformation. I am an indian so protein was non existent in my diet. I worked out only at home and did intermittent fasting.

All these songs are like pre-workout for me.

It’s been amazing! It’s like a game-changer. I’m feeling more like a better dad and husband. I’ve got so much more energy and motivation to get things done! I even started officiating high school football, and when I have time, I’m hitting the gym. My muscle recovery has been so much better. I’m curious, are you experiencing less need to sleep? I’m only getting about 5/6 hours sleep. Wake up and drink coffee and good to go!

Honestly, this is the first time I’ve done something like this, and I’m hoping for some support and encouragement. Here’s my situation: I’m 23 (born in 2003), 173 cm (5'8"), and weigh 84.5 kg (186 lbs). I first started going to the gym nearly two years ago. I reached my peak in the summer 2025—lasting until October—but then I began my higher education studies and let things slide a bit. Due to struggles with depression, I stopped going to the gym, and my diet hasn't been great either. It’s hard for me to admit this, but every time I go to take a shower and see myself in the mirror, I feel like crying. I look soft, I lack muscle mass, and I’m just not comfortable in my own skin. I’ve even developed stretch marks around my body. I want to start making a change. I’d love to hear about your own experiences, or perhaps get some advice on workout routines or nutrition (my financial and family situation is a bit difficult right now, at least until I finish my studies this year). If you were in my shoes, where would you start? Thanks for taking the time to read a message from just some random guy. I’m starting this change today, and in about a month, I want to share an update on my body to show what I’ve managed to achieve.
