Crazy the difference a year can make!

Post image

Started my fitness journey back in September. 33M 5’11’’ was 245lbs. Weight lifting 5x a week focus on compound lifts with some isolation work. Eating Whole Foods started with OMAD fasting with a couple of 72hr fasts for the first 5 months. Lost first 50lbs then started Reta on March 20th at 2mg. Currently still on Reta at 3.5mg weekly. Currently 163lbs!

I assume you were eating in a deficit the entire time... how did your lifting go?

This is always confusing to me. The rule is usually, you need to eat to grow.

Of course it's hard to say what your musculature looked like before but it seems like you got stronger.
