What Elite has done for me in 1 year.

[straitedge52]

I started this journey to get back in shape after becoming a "Fat Ass". I had let myself go and decided that I needed to do something. I was tired, had no drive, low libido and stressed. My wife too pic No one last November at the beach. When I was browsing through the pics I came across this one and thought "Who is that fat bastard with the coconuts?"...Damn...that's me!!!"

I started reading the threads about who was doing what and how. I found a good HRT DR. and got started. These pics are about 11 months apart and the latest one was about 2 months ago.

Update...ok here are the before and after pics.

As you can see...this has changed me dramatically. I have lost 56 lbs and 6 1/2" off my waist.

Thanks for all of your help and encouragement. I am continuing to work on this and am still doing the 100 MG/week of Testosterone Cypionate. I hit the gym 3 x a week and run or walk 1.5 miles every night. My supplements include:

• Whey Protein 150~200 gr/day
• Fish Oil
• CoQ10
• Red Rice Yeast
• Garlic Capsules
• Grape Seed Extract
• DHEA
• Alfalfa
• Wheat Grass
• 1 mg B-12 Injection wkly
• NO2 Platinum
• Cyto Carb w/waxy maze

I eat mostly chicken, fish, steel cut oat meal, salads, vegetables, eggs, soy and skim milk. I might eat red meat once a week. I have cut alcohol to almost zero.

I feel 100% better now...have a lot of drive, libido, mental focus...and If I didn't have my health back I would have a very hard time dealing with all of the finacial challenges that this recession has brought us.

My goal is to get to about 235~240 with about 15% +/- BMI . I have ordered a bottle of Unleashed to enhance my free Test number and to help cut some body fat.

I am and always will be open to suggestions and or comments.

This is a great place to learn and discuss all aspects of a healthy lifestyle. To all you guys over 50 that think your days of feeling great and being able to run with the "pack" are over...think again.!!

Re: What Elite has done for me in 1 year...Update

I took this one with my phone at the gym 12-14-09. Just came off the bench. Shoulders and arms are starting to come up a bit more....abs are coming along. It's real tough to get the diet right this time of year..plus I think I need more cardio. I have to make time for it.

I am really beginning to enjoy this more and more...keeps my mind off of the news and economy.

I am re-posting the October pic so we can see a 60 day spread.

It is hard to hold the camera and get a good mirror shot.
