Too the OP, I’m not into weight lifting or think it looks cool but it obviously takes tons of time, work, and dedication so I give you credit there.

As far as this… This is impressive to me, and inspiring. Nice job! I need to stop being a bum and drop a few extra pounds as well. What did you do? Diet? Workout? Both I’m sure but any specifics?

Basically just counted calories and tried to get in a good 30-60 min of cardio in 4-5 times a week. Towards the end when cardio became easier I’d go longer. I did a lot if biking and in the winter had a night pass to jiminy peak so is go night skiing a few times a week.

You guys make my fat ass depressed

Damn E man, so much respect.
