You can say that again! Thank you 👏 

Oh yes, my biggest critics are the overweight people around me 

I was told by my cousin, “you will always be obese, its in ur nature”...I use that to drive myself to success 💪🏼 

Yeah I had a friend when I was young that told me that I would always look the same when I was about 220 lb. Also my brother told me that I was in shape now but I would gain a lot of weight once I hit 30 well I'm 37 now and still waiting for that beer belly to appear.  

Pretty sure the beer belly comes with too much beer and too little exercise. I haven’t seen your food log so no clue on the beer, but I’d say you have nothing to worry about with your level of fitness ;). For most of us our 30’s do see some weight gain. Can’t wait to see if 40’s are worse lol. For me it was kids then cancer not age per se. 

Amen to that 

Is there actual science behind the beer belly thing? I was just talking about what people call it when people have a protruding belly. 

My uncle said something about visceral fat and water retention due to drinking too much beer. I can’t remember exactly what he said because I was focused on his heart issues and how they drained so much water off of him that he looked skinnier than I’ve ever seen him. I’ll try to remember to ask him exactly what his dr told him. Of course that doesn’t mean that it’s true as I know drs will sometimes not be 100% truthful lol.  

My close ones just try to sabotage me. Which ... isn't possible. Sure I'll take home the cheese cake. Go out for ice cream, you bet. LOL 40#s lighter - can't sabotage me, I'm so flexible I'm unbreakable! 

You go, Lzenn! 

I worked out a formula... dumbed down its real simple every 5kg you lose = 1 friend you lose 

That friend becomes a hater so it's not all bad. More haters=more motivation cause you know you're on the right track, lol 

Yeah mate Let the haters hate! 

soon enough I'll be bulking... then I'll be real hated hahaha 

Nice, when will it be my turn to bulk? Maybe in March, right Chris? 

T-shirts that fit still to easy to find? 

I wear medium/large. They fit well still. Once the mediums are loose maybe lol. Really the goal is shredded abs. 

Thats exactly why I won't start bulking untill I hit single digit.. I feel like I'm wasting away at the moment hahahahaha 

Bulking will be hard now though... I'm hooked on F45 lol 

your a tank bro
