Today is officially the 1.5 year mark of my lifestyle change. I haven’t shared my progress before, but I wanted to show what realistic progress can look like over time. In the first 6 months I lost most of the weight, going down to 185. In the past year I’ve very slowly creeped down to 176. I plan on cutting down to 170 and then bulking back up to 185. How did I do this?

I’ve tracked every calorie I’ve eaten in the past year and a half. Also I eat plenty of protein. I go to the gym and lift 5x a week. I started walking whenever I golf (which is a lot lol).

Full disclosure, no Testosterone, but I am taking Enclomiphene. Without it my testosterone levels were at 160ish. Now they are at 600ish(which still isn’t considered high). I do not feel this makes me “enhanced”, but I want to be completely honest. When I first started, I got discouraged by the people who would come on here and make insane progress within 6 months and not disclose their GLP1s or steroid use.

Most importantly, I feel so much better. I have way more energy. I used to have horrible knee pain that has gone away. I can easily climb around the floor to play with my kids. I feel much more confident. My wife is happy with my new found confidence and energy too!

I’m happy with my progress the past 1.5 years and I’m excited to see where I’m at in another 1.5 years!
