Props to Mike......... Mike Arvilla that is

[LLES]

what did you weigh at the beginning of the diet?  270
what do you weigh today?  237
what weight do you plan on coming in at?  Not sure, I have been told 215 - 225

Who told you 215-225 Big Mike. On-stage you will be in the 205-210 range.You will be nowhere near 225 until after the show.

Whatever weight you'll end up at, it will definitely be good for your PT business having done this.

You actually dieted down, faced the fears of losing impressive size (which was mostly fat anyways), and got into great shape. That is something you'll be able to build on, and forever be proud of.

You may not look great right now. You may or may not look good at contest day.

But you were still able to stop goofing around, and take your bodybuilding to a new level. Build on that.

BTW, your new off season look will most likely be a very pleasing experience to you.

Hey, Mike. I don't know what kind of product you'll be using - Dream Tan or Pro Tan - but I suggest you DO NOT use Dream Tan according to the March 2005 issue of Flex (page 168) Just thought I'd give ya a tip....
