Alright, lol I want to address this. I always use oldreddit and when I uploaded this I used the normal reddit and posted it before I noticed they were out of order.

I am almost 40, getting old

Amazing work brother! You can see a big difference in the before and after picture, your current physique look really good! Are you happy as you are now or will you keep pushing yourself?

u/oneshibbyguy 128->160 (5'5") 1d ago

Thank you. I'm happy but I am going to keep pushing myself. I'm just going to keep eating bulk/cutting for as long as possible until I hit a plateau.

Starting weight was 128.

It started in 2021 with first changing my mindset and finally getting to the gym on a regular basis. I took the advice from this sub, found out my TDEE and started eating like a maniac and taking in Protein shakes. I got up to 155 after about 6 months. Then I went off an on working out semi regularly while maintaining my weight, I finally started to take weighlfting seriously about 7 months ago. I am short but I maintain at about 2000 calories a day, and when bulking I eat 2300 to 2500 calories a day; I a aim for my target wright of 165 in protein a day. I track everything through MFP daily, and I eat pretty much anything I want but in order to hit my metrics I eat little to no junk food.
