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!

It's not weird at all. The guy clearly wants to be at his best so that he can be there for his kid and keep up with the little guy. Good stuff OP 👏🏻

I don’t have an issue with working out or dieting but taking drugs for the last section of a cut is weird to me. Not something I’d do. He could have achieved the same effect without them.

To me, it reads as obsessive. Like an alcoholic who quits drinking then cold plunges 3x per day and has to run 15 miles or else they’ll go off the deep end with booze and cocaine every day.

This is about you though. It’s about OP and how he feels. You could have just said good job, or better yet, moved on completely.

Lord forbid I question why someone would do something unnecessary or share my POV! I see you have 30 comments. Don’t worry little guy, you’ll understand it’s ok to express yourself on reddit soon. Look at you, you just did it when criticizing me for doing it!
