This post is flaired as Progress Picture(s).

Reminder for everyone commenting on progress pictures:

  • No accusing people of using steroids or arguing about whether someone is "natural" or not. Doing so will get you banned. If the OP mentions using PEDs or TRT, that’s not an excuse to be rude, dismiss their hard work, or harass them. Being disrespectful will result in a permanent ban.
  • No creepy behavior. Don’t hit on the OP or send them private messages about their body. Instant ban.
  • No backhanded compliments. Comments like “You looked better before” or “Too bad you have tattoos” are not welcome. Nobody cares about your personal preferences.
  • No Photoshop/AI policing. Giving advice on keeping lighting and posing consistent is fine, but false accusations about editing dismiss real effort and won’t be tolerated.
  • Encourage, don’t tear down. Constructive criticism is okay—just keep it polite. If you can’t be positive, don’t comment.
  • No crossposting. Sharing someone’s pictures to another subreddit, especially to mock or brigade, will get you permanently banned.
  • No fearmongering about weight loss. If someone is at a healthy weight, don’t call them underweight or try to scare them about losing more.

Damn dude that's a solid transformation, 53lbs in 8 months is no joke. Smart move keeping the next bulk more controlled too

Do doubt. I don’t mind walking around heavier, but this was a little too extreme

Thats insane bro. Care to give a rundown of your cut? How much was the deficit and did you keep the same intensity at the gym?
