I especially loved the photo of you in your shorts, it always makes it more real to me to see weight loss when people wear their "before" clothes! http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_1.htmlSat, 18 Oct 2008 06:46:22 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_1.htmlZeb, your amazing. You've done such a great job!http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_1.htmlFri, 17 Oct 2008 09:30:45 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_1.htmlRegarding the tummy tuck. I gotta say that if I were you I would wait a couple months to see what happened and do some weight training. You would be surprised what the skin is capable of rebounding from. Anyways, you look great and I would love to have those problems.

My 6 week goal of July to lose 6 kg didn't go quite as planned - not gonna make any excuses, just didn't put in as much work as I was hoping to. But I did reset my goals straight away after those 6 weeks. By 2nd of september I wanted to be at 84kg, it's the 13th now and I'm at 85.3kg so I'm pretty happy with that @ 16.5% bodyfa...http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlSat, 13 Sep 2008 03:00:37 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlwow! congrats man! keep going! ~jonhttp://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlSun, 31 Aug 2008 13:24:17 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlThanks so much for the kind words guys, I don't think I've ever been called an inspiration before but it's truly great to hear I'll post some updates in another month or two, I'm now coming up to my 1 year anniversary of having joined traineo and changing my life.

The past week I've been really getting into self development books and improving myself in all aspects of my life, even if its just doing something little each week. In line with that I'm going to begin a 6 week challenge of losing another 6kg. I'm focusing heavily on my diet and keeping it completely clean. From the past 10 months I've learnt the importan...http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlSun, 20 Jul 2008 03:57:17 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlcongrats!!!!!!!!!!!! awesome progress , im really happy for you!http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlTue, 24 Jun 2008 23:50:01 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlNot so much, I guess ab territory would be nice but at the moment I'd be really happy to have a flat stomach - so maybe something like 15% by my scales For some reason i store bodyfat like a chick... i've got massive legs and arse lol. But i think running should sort that out, its helped so far...http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlTue, 24 Jun 2008 22:43:49 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlQuoting: msivieAwesome job, Zeb!

For 3 months work it's been very slow and slight change, I was hoping to be down at 18%BF but am still sitting at about 22%. It's been steady progress however, with remarkably little effort on my behalf so I'm not complaining That said I am going to up the intensity to speed up my results over the next 3 months.

As far as taking your body fat % lower, go for it! It's you who have to live with you and I see no reason not to be the best you can be if you want that! Keep lifting!http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlMon, 24 Mar 2008 23:45:43 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlYeah admittedly I didn't do the maths behind it, 35% was a guess at best but I'm sure it was higher back in september. I'd be very suprised if I lost 1/3 of my muscle as I've been lifting and eating the whole time to cling onto it. Definately expect to have lost a few LBM thought. Thanks for pointing it out though, I'm gonna have a look over my files tonight ...http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlMon, 24 Mar 2008 23:38:42 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.html35% BF @ 271 lbs, LBM = 176.15 25% BF @ 209 lbs, LBM = 156.75 While you lost 60 lbs, 1/3 of it was muscle! Please make sure that you are eating enough protein (and total calories) to support your LBM. At this rate of muscle loss you will be 23% BF at 198 lbs. Losing weight isn't easy, and congrats for your accomplishment so far! Focus on eating smarter so that you'll reach your goal. Losing 11 lbs of fat is easy enough, but it's easier to lose muscle!...http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlMon, 24 Mar 2008 17:47:20 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlGreat job Zeb!!! Awesome work!! Keep it up and you will be able to reach your goals. Then you can go back to those people who doubted you and you won't even have to say anything, they'll just see how awesome you've done. http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlMon, 24 Mar 2008 16:17:58 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlThanks so much for your kind words I just uploaded another before and after pic.. I really can't find any shots with my whole body in it, even with baggy clothes Oh and don't ask about the long hair LOL *face-palm* http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlMon, 24 Mar 2008 02:26:01 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlAwesome job, Zeb!

You're giving yourself the best gift there is, so keep up the great progress.

And just take people telling you to quit as a complement on how well you've done. A lot of people just don't understand the levels of fitness some of us would like to achieve and would be quite happy with what you've done, which is spectacular!http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlSun, 23 Mar 2008 16:01:48 +0000http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlSo last september something finally clicked in my head. It wasn't a single turning point event, but I knew I wanted to change and was looking forward to the challenge - I started to view my body as a piece of clay which I had the power to sculpt however I wish. I started in Sept at 19 years old, 271lb and atleast 35% BF and am now 209lb 25% BF. This took a whole lifestyle change, one I'm absolutely enjoying right now. My eatings healthy - I've been seeing a nutritionist and alt...http://www.traineo.com/14_5473_0.htmlSun, 23 Mar 2008 13:22:41 +0000
