I was built ok but began to get fat after quitting all sports in school. Then it really bothered me because Im a very self concious guy about my body so I got the disease and went to the gym.

I was very very fat, I was in an extremly unhealty releationship, we were fighting every day I became kind of addicted to computer, combine that with my first office job (sitting all day) and working on night shift, loads of chocolate and Chinese take away...
I blew up to a maximum of: 308 pounds, when I look at pictures like that I cannot believe I went that far...even now after my "time of plenty eat what ever you want" I'm way way less I was back than... and still feel like I have gone over the top...

Back than I digged the bitch, went into the gym and thought to myself I'm going to show the fugging girl what she misses out on... after a year of bbing I came slowly back to my normal weight + a little muscles, she wanted to come back to me (big fugging suprice ::)  )

I was around 16.  I was into gymnastics and baseball.  When I was a freshman in HS the coach wanted me to play Varsity baseball but said I was to small.  I played JV.  I needed to get bigger so he said to start lifting weights.  So that summer I did.  I was around 5'7" 130 when I started.  My sophmore year at baseball I weighed 175.  I gained allot of muscle.  Graduated at 5'11" 210.

I was always bigger and stronger than other kids my age most of my life (I'm 18 now). I actually used to be a bully in elementary school. I was such an ass.

I got my first taste of iron when I was 15 years old and stopped a few months after. But I was a friggin huge 15 year old! But when I stopped I got chubby.  ???

I started again at 17, got ripped, got big, then got chubby again, although I continued to grow. hehehe

Not exactly. At that time I was in a smallish catholic school and targeted specific people. This was in 3rd-7th grade.

Knowing me now you'd never guess that I was like that back in the day. I went to catholic school and became an atheist at around the age of 8 and rebelled. I became the worst student attending that shithole. In 7th grade I finally got what I wanted all along. The boot!  ;D

Seven years ago I was 120 kg (264 lbs) of pure lard ass at the age of 22 and decided I'd be dead in 10 years if I didn't stop eating KFC & McDonalds for lunch every day, so I joined a gym to lose weight. The gym I went to at the time had signed pictures of bodybuilders from the 60's & 70's and I was awestruck by this massive bald headed dude with his arms stretched out above his head (guess who ?) and I thought "Wow, I want to look like that". I ended up losing 50 kg (110 lbs) down to 70 kg and have put on 6kg more to be up to 76 kg. In the last 5 years I've become vegetarian (mostly vegan except for eggs & yogurt) and whilst I'll never look anything like Sergio, I'm still very proud of what I accomplished.

SERGIO!!!!
