The past 12 weeks' journey

Hi all.

Just finished my 12 week journey, with the help of DJ.

Stats:
Length 1.78
BF% start approx 37
weight start 123.4kg

Basically, i went to donate blood in Oct last year and BP was recorded as 140/100. could not believe it.

I then came across this forum and got hold of DJ. He worked out a program and diet for me, which I started on 20 Nov 12.

herewith before photos when I started







After 12 weeks (when I started it felt so long, but looking back, it feels so short now, and wow, what a journey) it has become a lifestyle.

My BF% has dropped to 15% (taken with calipers, down 20% BF), weight is down to 108.4 (15kg in 12 weeks lost). It has taken hard work and dedication, I will not lie. Especially over the festive period when everyone indulged on all the sweets etc, I went to exercise and eating right.

Herewith current photos







As can be seen, I still have some little fat on the stomach but most of it is loose skin, which I know will shrink back over time (same on the love handles).

I am ready for the next phase to get my body ready to its peak.

Again thanks to the master DJ, he has helped me tremendously. Best money I have ever paid! Thanks to all your guys who also post, it has kept me motivated.

This might be a bit personal, but how did you feel on your last day? Were you 'emotional' about it or just happy about it?

Anyway, please update us if you continue with the 'journey'. I'm willing to bet you'll be rocking a 6 pack by middle 2013

Thanks for all the kind words guys, I appreciate it. You have given me motivation for the next stage!

It was hard to not take 1 drop of alcohol over this time and not to cheat, and really, coming to think of it, I actually do not miss the alcohol and eat-cheat. I had one cheatmeal at week 11, since I stagnated a bit with fatloss..

LXIX, coming back to your question, I was a bit emotional, coming to think of it. did not think I could do it,but everyday just worked a bit harder and went through the pain.

I am currently working with DJ on the next phase and will then again post photos. But for the next 10-15 weeks, it is going again to be balls to the wall!

Wow that is one hell of an impressive change in only 12 weeks! Congratulations boet, and big ups to DJ. Have some karma. Good luck with keeping up the self discipline. You can do it!

SIC!

Absolutely amazing work!

Keep that focus and push harder for the next part!

Amazing results bro. In a short period of time. Keep up the good work

Awesome man - kick some ass!

Ama ma ma maaaazing. Well done budi. Always so inspiring to see things like this. Makes one want to push harder. Great work man...

Fantastic progress SV - Good luck in chasing your next goals!

Thanks guys!

Awesome progress man! I am hoping to enlist the help of said mighty squirrel in my fight against my waistline.

Great job.This is serious motivation!!!!
Congrats.

Well done dude +1 !! Looks like more then 15kg lost to me!!

I need to get my ass in gear and drop the last few kg!

What sort of diet was it keto, carb cycle if i may ask? What about the training program, more cardio then weight training?

balanced diet, cardio and training, training program to build muscle and it had loads of intense moments in it, cardio started slowely and increased as time went on.

This just goes to show that this forum has a lot to offer in terms of solid advice.

Well done on your success.... the after pics truly shows a good body and mental transformation.

Awesome work to the guru's on this website and to the administrators as well.

Regards

Okay buddy there is the last of the karma I owe you. Again you were amazing!

Thanks again to all, it is appreciated
