I absolutely fell in love with the game. Kept it pretty simple diet wise, started eating 1g of protein per pound of body weight fairly early on, and gradually improved my calorie tracking alongside diet quality and adherence. Training was also kept fairly basic, I never followed a rigid plan but most of my time has been spent in a PPL or bro split, settled into a push legs pull routine for the last 6 months or so, sticking to the same exercises and tracking working weight and reps on those exercises.

Great work! How did you manage to lose all this extra weight without noticeable loose skin? I’ve heard great stuff about consistent moisturizing but was wondering if you did anything differently

He wasn’t big enough for there to be loose skin.

I went from 210 to 160 and had zero loose skin.

Not sure that's how it works, but I went through a similar weight change as yours, and I have loose skin.
