I'm starting at 178.5 and thank you to YMS for setting all of this up and letting me participate. My current plan is to lift 4x a week, 10-12k steps, and eat 2500 kcal. I might also start doing 30 minutes of cardio on my off days. Good luck to everyone and I think this will be a lot of funimage_2026-09-02_222512129.png

So I'm a bit different than the other contestants, it seems....
I'm 6'4, 264. Spent my entire life very fat. About 6 months ago I started realizing I had low t, and started getting bloods and doing some research. Been on trt for 4 months now. 3 months ago, I started reta and gh with it. Currently doing 140/week test, 1.5mg/week reta, 4iu daily gh. When I started t I was 335, at my fattest I was 385.
For diet, I've been meal prepping chicken and peppers with tater tots for 2 meals a day. Currently eating around 1700 calories with 180g protein.
Gym 3x per week, with cycling for cardio
I'm very grateful to asf for all the info, people, and general help along the way, and to yms for putting this on for us, thank you.
I’ve seen this dude make some incredible progress so far in his journey. The momentum is there and easily be the wildest transformation here if he keeps at it!
 
Update. Dealing with a sinus infection haven’t trained. Going to try and train today and see how it goes.
 
I don't have any exciting updates today. Just a long work day and caloric deficit. I'll update pictures every few days, if that's cool?
Here's my meal prep, though. A modified jambayala, my favorite meal from my unhealthy days. My brother meal preps with me every weekend. From the original recipe, we dropped the bacon, we switched from regular kielbasa to turkey kielbasa. We upped chicken and peppers in relation to the kielbasa too, and added broccoli because it's my favorite filler veggie.
I change up the sauce on the potatoes, always a low sugar one. This one is sweet baby rays no sugar added, it's only 15 Calories added

Wifey's birthday today which coincides with my day off training, trying to eat healthy today.

30 minute brisk walk with dogs this morning, 2 whole eggs with 10oz egg whites & Mexican potatoes for breakfast.
Took her and the kids out to eat for lunch, had a grilled chicken sandwich with figs, goat cheese, prosciutto and arugula.
Going to Japanese for dinner, will get a steak poke bowl and sushi (limit the sushi).

Will do a little cardio before dinner and possibly swim after dinner

Bloat and excessive food waste starting come off pretty quickly. Had some night sweats last night, so might have been a little dehydrated. I was 232 10 days ago, so I assume I'll get to 235 or so then a normal progression of 2-2.5lb a week
Day 1 - 251.8
Day 2 - 247.8
Day 3 - 239.4

Absolutely. My wife puts everyone else first and has wanted to start lifting again, so I told her that we will lift together at home 2-3 days a week. I lift with my son the other days at my buddies gym who trains him and my daughter
It's a blast to do as a family.

She wants to lift again so we'll do it together

What's your diet plan? Like what steps are you taking to dial it in?
So let me rephrase that… I never dieted before just pretty much ate in moderation, so this is all new to me and now I actually have a meal plan on what exactly to eat and when to eat it, but now I have to incorporate it in that’s kinda what I meant by dialing it in
 
I feel you Swilly, I’ve never properly laid out a diet to stick to. I’m sure it’ll take a minute to get it straight. Is basically any whey going to curdle in your stomach on a glp1? I messed up my stomach for most of the day yesterday making the mistake of starting the morning with a whey isolate shake followed by a Starbucks protein coffee with milk protein concentrate.
