4 years ago i went from 44 size waist to 32 size waist and went from 105kg (sometimes more) down to 69kg, i lost aprox 35kg. I was fit, flat stomach some definition but the lame skinny look because i restricted my calories so much. I started training with a bodybuilder for 3 months. Added on some muscle and compared to the fat me i looked totally different.
Then i got a gf annnd my training fell apart. I couldnt balance eating well/gym/partying/ and slowly i fell back into old habits.
I started training again last 2 months though, im down to 42 or 40 waist now but haven't weighed myself would be way to depressing to see the number.
