Update pics... low 170s now :)

[Beast]

Although my diet has been **** lately, I'm holding onto around 172 pounds. I still want to lose some more, but I don't think that will be possible until summer when I can be more strict about my diet.

These pics were taken before a beach-themed dance... I got a tan and got rid of the hair I had. I stuck out a bit at the dance, hehe.

Herc: Thanks. The tan and shave really does help, along with the loss of a few more pounds.

spencer: Thanks, bud.

Jabber: Hmm, I usually don't post legs but maybe I will next time I get pictures.

Xian: Thanky.

cp: Thanks, you too.

John: Thanks. Yeah, I wonder what my bodyfat percentage is.

[AdmiralDan]

[Organichu]

Also Beast, I'd say you're about 8%.

[Gabrielle]

You look great, and if you lose a bit more you will look even better. Nice work

[staggard]

great job man!

[DarkSmurf]

Great job man! Keep it up and keep us updated.

[Beast]

Den: lol, I don't know about that. That guy was huge! Plus my arms aren't made of metal. :(

500: You're ripped AND big, bro.

Ronnie: Thanks for the kind words, man. Always good to hear from you. And I can't believe how ****ing strong you are now! I'm thinking of losing maybe 2-3% more fat... I guess I'll land in the 160s. I've been concentrating so much on how my front looks, I forget to take pics of my back, lol. I'll remember next time.

illazz: Thanks, man.

Gutz: lol, you mean touche? ;)

latino: Thanks for the kind words. Keep doing what you're doing and you'll look like whatever you want to look like.

Organ: LOL, I dunno about being sexy... ;) I do agree with the 8% call, though. Maybe 9. I guess it doesn't really matter, anyway.

Dan: Thank you.

Gabe: Thanks, and I can't wait until I can muster enough self-control to make my diet totally clean... need to get that fat around my lower abdomen gone.

stag: Thanks!

Smurf: Thanks, man. I will.

[GMCtrk]

looking AWESOME man! very thick

[Built]

DAYUM! How did I MISS this!

You're totally HOT!

Those abs... SUCH yummy abs....

<sigh...>

[rookiebldr]

:omg: Awesome work, Mike. You look way thicker, heavier and packing more muscle than that 172 would indicate. Your cut has been amazing.

[Coke]

Those are some great shots...I'm surprised you'd let yourself get so close to 170, lol - looking good.

[Manveet]

looking awesome man

[bill]

Doing great there Beast, how long have been lifting?

[no regrets]

Looking real good man. I think I remember you saying you only ate 3 times a day a while back? Do you still do this? What do your meals look like?

[Hickory]

looking HUGE

[Beast]

GMC: Thanks!

Built: LOL, I'm glad you think so. :hump:

Jeff: Thanks, it's gone pretty well so far. :)

Cocoa: Yeah, man... I never knew I'd have to get this light. I guess I was more of a fatass than I originally thought!

Manveet: I appreciate it.

bill: I've been at it hardcore for 3.5 years.

no regrets: I still basically eat only 3 times per day, although now that I am at this bodyfat level I can't help but cheat a lot more than I usually do. I need to stop. I've also cut back on the amount of cardio I've been doing. Even though I've done that I can eat a cheat meal every day at no loss in definition... but it prevents me from getting to the ultra-ripped state I really want. I also want to enjoy my last weeks of college, so I'm putting off the hardcore diet until summer.

Hickory: Thanks!
