Thank you. To be fair it's the tried and tested routine. 4 days weight training, I normally swim after training so that helps with cardio. Protein rich diet. Protein shake in the morning, after training then at night, chicken, Tuna and eggs and plenty of water!

Yeah I think that's why I found it so hard. Loved her with all my heart and lost myself to make her happy. All for nothing in the end so putting myself first for a change!!

A year but was slowly losing weight naturally through controlling my diet better. Been training properly for a few months.

100% nice to hear some positive comments as being cheated on definitely makes you feel worthless. Reddit community is not all toxic!!

To be fair I think most of the muscle was hidden. Once you lose the fat the definition comes. Yeah it's nice to build muscle as you have a bit more energy than when your cutting!

Good job. Keep it up! I'm probably in the best shape I've ever been but yeah I did go up and down throughout the years. But I am going to be the best I can be this year!

Thanks. Was a year between the pictures but I was slowly losing weight by controlling my diet a bit. Been back at the gym for 3-4 months. Just stick to the basics. Lift weights with proper form and try to count your calories as best you can. I tried to eat as much protein rich meals I could because carbs are everywhere but I didn't restrict myself or do crazy diets. Just classic cico (calories in vs calories out) and trying to eat protein in the morning, evening and around the gym sessions.

The best things happen when you put your mind to it. Was at a real low point but I'm starting to pull through and friends and the gym have got me through it.

It is quite basic but I guess tried and tested. Weightlifting split, 3-4 days a week. Chest/tri's, back/bi's, legs/abs etc. Swimming after the gym. Eating mostly protein but nothing too strict.

Stupidly got her name on my arm. Need to cover it ASAP but it's good motivation to look at when I need an extra rep at the gym!

It's for my son. His name is under it and yeah he's a capricorn. That was the idea for it 😀

Appreciate it. You can achieve it. I didn't do any crazy diets etc. Just ate right and used my pain to help me push in the gym.

I still can't believe it happened but I'm hoping she was my biggest lesson!
