Hey guys! 54yr old family guy. Couple years ago I lost 85lbs (270lbs to 185lbs) all natty doing cardio and calorie deficit. I ended up skinny fat and my testosterone levels didn’t improve like the experts said it would. So i started lifting and TRT 9 months ago. I feel great! According to my DEXA scan last week I put on 25lbs of muscle and only 5 lbs of fat since starting TRT. I can definitely see the results in the mirror. My wife approves. She has been approving me quite a bit lately, lol! I hope to one day post before and after pics but I don’t look as good as you guys yet. I’m almost dialed in on TRT and recently started a little hgh (thanks to helpful reviews on eroids). So maybe someday I’ll get there!

Congrats on the incredible progress, man! Losing 85lbs and putting on 25lbs of muscle is no small feat—DEXA doesn’t lie! The fact that you feel great and have the wife’s "approval" (lol) just shows how far you’ve come. Stick with it, and don’t stress about comparing yourself to others—your journey is your own. TRT + lifting + dialing in the HGH sounds like a winning combo. Keep crushing it, and I’m sure those before-and-after pics will blow us all away when you’re ready to share!
Exactly what my man just said! Don't down yourself brother! Nobody here is better than anybody and everybody has their own journey, their own story. What matters is that you stick with it and saw it through. That speaks volumes! That dedication can't be taught! It's also one of the main deterrents of this lifestyle for most. You've captured what takes so many, so long to get. The diet and dedication sets you aside from many. Don't be so hard on yourself! Like Smurf said, your before and after pics are already in the top percentage with that kind of weight loss. Don't down yourself brother! You got this
Thanks brother! I’ll take all the encouragement I can get. It’s been great so far. The biggest reward has been my marriage. We’ve been together over 20 years. I thought she lost interest in sex. But since TRT I’ve been acting like a teenager again and she has been responding to that way better than I imagined! It probably helps that I’m not a grumpy old crab anymore.
Brother if you went from 270-185-210 muscle you have top 5% transformation pics already lol! Never down yourself or compare to others. Your journey is yours! Props for sticking with trt to start and doing it the right way.
Keep it up and welcome!
Thanks for the encouragement! Maybe I’ll muster up the courage to post my before and after pics. No question the results are blatantly obvious I’m just not where I want to be yet.
