Through and through.....I sniff soiled posing trunks, I create bb tribute sites, I write letters to Joe Weider (despite the restraining order), I give the thumbs up pose in every pic I take, I never lift weights, I subscribe to every bb rag on the market, I give unsolicited bb advice to anyone in ear shot, I analyze contests from 20 years ago, I devise elaborate bb conspiracy theories, I buy front row tickets to every major bb show, I consume epic quantities of Muscletech products, I wear Otomix ankle highs, I get my pic taken with any bb that will give me the time of day and beg them for their cell number afterwards, I think Dave Palumbo is a terrific bb, I think King Kamali is huge with huge arms and gets a bad rap, I think bbs should be treated with the utmost respect as they are world class athletes....that kinda stuff.

Fair enough to each his own.  You have never ripped on me nor do I see you tearing into a lot of others who post their pics.

Remember though, if it weren't for people actually posting their pics this place would suck. It would be extremely boring and there would be nothing to talk about aside from what color King Kamali's posing trunks were. 

Also I'm surprised to see you are on a bodybuilding forum, yet you say talking pics posing is gay that's really odd.  Not bashing you Med as I already know you are a person of dignity.

lol... well, it's a trade-off.  I only work 4 hours a day on average, and spend the rest of the day at home with my son.  I have a few long term maintenance contracts too.  But I'm certainly not rich :)

I was a dotnetnuke team project manager before i got hitched and starting babymaking.  before that, i ran 3/5 of a university website, and before that a teacher.  so yeah, i'm totally underachieving lol... the baby is finally becoming a bit more independent, so I'm gearing my work-brain back up a bit.

Keep in mind I was 125 pounds at age 25, at a height of 5'10".

That's bone skinny.  I got fuct in the genetics dept.  For me, being 50 pounds heavier and a decent bodyfat %, 5 years later is a decent accomplishment.  I'm never gonna win any show, that's obvious.  But I look better than a lot of 30 year olds, and I've made progress from my own starting line.  and while i've been here forever, I've only been eating the right carbs and enough protein for 2 months now, since I got the Layne diet.  Give me a year to make some progress.

Most of us here are fucked in the genetics otherwise we wouldn't be trying to get muscle(get something we don't have). Ok, so you have built up some MASS yes. VERY GOOD. You are a BODYBUILDER you simply are!

Ok, so maybe you are nowhere near a professional bodybuilder or a local amateur competitor but you are a bodybuilder. Hell you are even getting nutritional advice to get a better physique. YOU MY FRIEND ARE A BODYBUILDER. Whether you are proud or ashamed to be one is not related to the activities you perform. We define you as a bodybuilder because you try to improve your physique. We do not define you as a bodybuilder as to your development in relation to other bodybuilders. In fact you don't decide on what your pursuits are classified as...

Did Layne do the diet for you specifically? Good luck.

Yes, the first time I've ever really sat down and blindly followed something.  Typically I'd dissect a diet on day 1 and figure out ten things wrong with it and make my own modifications, and it'd pretty much end up being the same diet I've always had.

I hate eating clean carbs, and I'm eating a lot of those now.
I hate whey, but I'm drinking some of that now.
I like fats, so getting those in isn't so bad.

basically I'm just eating a lot less bad carbs and watching the %, focusing mainly upon breakfast and the pre- and post-workout meals, and being very cautious to eat a lot of the right stuff right before bed, a time when I typically derailed. 

If anyone is interested, he's very affordable and yeah, he gets results. 
www.biolayne.com
I sent him all my info and a few pics, along with my preferences, likes/dislikes, and he had a diet to me in a day or two with all the % breakdowns for everything.  You guys saw me post terrible pics for 3 or 4 years here, never making any changes at all, really, other than going up or down 5 or 10 pounds of water and bulk.  This is the first time in my life I"m making steady progress.

i can say unequically that i've never taken a self photo or had anyone else take pics of me posing  shirtless.......seems a lil narcissitic too me........don't get me wrong i have a bit of ego but that's pushing the envelope for me.......it's also a bit fuckin gay
Im the same.All through my BB phase of my life i had no shirtless photos taken of me now im just a weight trainer not a BB.

there's a big divide there.  Some girls look at shirtless guy pics and drool.  Others laugh at the cheesiness.

You are Neo-Con scum, face it.... >:(

Yes, the first time I've ever really sat down and blindly followed something.  Typically I'd dissect a diet on day 1 and figure out ten things wrong with it and make my own modifications, and it'd pretty much end up being the same diet I've always had.

I hate eating clean carbs, and I'm eating a lot of those now.
I hate whey, but I'm drinking some of that now.
I like fats, so getting those in isn't so bad.

basically I'm just eating a lot less bad carbs and watching the %, focusing mainly upon breakfast and the pre- and post-workout meals, and being very cautious to eat a lot of the right stuff right before bed, a time when I typically derailed. 

If anyone is interested, he's very affordable and yeah, he gets results.

I sent him all my info and a few pics, along with my preferences, likes/dislikes, and he had a diet to me in a day or two with all the % breakdowns for everything.  You guys saw me post terrible pics for 3 or 4 years here, never making any changes at all, really, other than going up or down 5 or 10 pounds of water and bulk.  This is the first time in my life I"m making steady progress.

Didnt see your old pics but if you started at 125 lbs thats not bad. If you wanna bench heavy u will need a spotter, or after u get stuck under the once u will lol. Bench was always my strong point.

better view of the transformation...

25 - very skinny teacher, at 125 or 130 pounds.

28 - ate taco bell and McD nonstop, did squats 2-3 times a week (20 rep variations) and actually added 90 pounds to my frame (50 of it being fat, I'm sure).  Not healthy, and nothing I'd recommend.  Got up to 223 pounds at my highest, very briefly.

31 - Focusing on health, but still trying to gain muscle of course.  Lost a lot of weight gradually - spending all day with baby, missing more meals and sleep than I'd like, weighing about 175 today.

Correct.  I think I have a bigger chest though.

You don't need a reason to post her pics.  It should be a daily thing around here.
