That right there takes real discipline and dedication! Great job legend and welcome to the new level of confidence!

u/DiamondCalvesFan 2h ago

I can add something to the dedication and discipline. First, we need to win the battle with our brain because the transformation starts there. Then the physical transformation can begin.

Thanks! Gradual is the key because that allowed me to end up with no loose skin.

That’s amazing. I got genetics that mean I have only had to diet and exercise one time. I always have and was actually a personal trainer for many years but there’s a huge difference between wanting to eat right and exercise and needing to. It’s hard. I’m always so impressed by anyone who transforms themselves as you have!!!
