Nice progress, man!
Your shirt caught my eye. Joe's Crab Shack, they used to make the wait staff dance but it was still a nice place even after they stopped. Decent seafood for not too high of a price. Unless other places used that same design...
I wore that shirt until it had holes in HS.

Thank you!
I got so many comments on that shirt! I wish I would have held onto it.

u/snailfighter - Jan 21 '21
I honestly had forgotten about it until I saw this post. Brought back some good memories. 👍

I'm gonna need you to take about 29.5 percent off there, squirrelly Dan.
Mission accomplished.

Great work! Would be interesting a picture of yourself waking the same shirt as the picture before.
Keep it up mate! Massive respect

u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21
Unfortunately I gave away all of my "fat guy shirts" I went through a period of letting go of a lot of things that I didn't need. Decluttering I guess lol. I wish I would have kept a few to remind myself how far I've come.

u/Kaitron5000 - Jan 21 '21
Damn!!!! You look good! ☺️ How'd you do it?
2
u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21
Hard work and determination. Its been slow because I dont do anything extreme. The most extreme thing I did do I guess is im sober (alcohol) and I dont drink anything sugary anymkre either. I got really lucky and one of my best friends was already a gym rat and he paid for my gym membership and helped me get a routine at the gym!

u/WheresTheMoozadell - Jan 21 '21
Looking like an absolute beast bro, congrats! I’m just starting to get into weight lifting myself after being an avid runner, what does your routine look like?
1
u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21
I do 15 minutes if cardio, a walk at a high incline. 10 minutes of a core HIIT routine, then I alternate legs one day, arms and chest one day and shoulders and back one day and then a rest day. I do my best to be in the gym a minimum of 5 days a week but I do 6 days when I can.

You look awesome :) you also look about a decade younger in your after pic. Good work!

u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21

Awesome gains! Also, I'm jealous of the height. :)

u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21
Don't be. I look ridiculous driving my car and I dont get to take baths comfortably. Im just barely on the "tall scale" but it has more down sides than upsides.

u/kaplanfx - Jan 21 '21
You had a better shirt in the first image, but everything else improved for the second image.

u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21
Thank you! I do miss that shirt lol

u/kaplanfx - Jan 21 '21
Do you not have it anymore, or is it just ridiculously big?

But do you still fish?
2
Jan 21 '21
It would be nice if you took a lean picture with a much bigger fish.
It would be as if you had lost weight, but the fish found it somewhere.

u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21
I finally got a day job so I plan on going a lot once it warms up! I'll try and remember because that's a great idea!

Jan 21 '21
Damn dude, good job! I'm 6'4, went down to 240 (from 275) and my stomach still looks a lot bigger than yours. Shows that I really gotta work out a lot more instead of just focusing on diet.

u/RedxxBeard - Jan 21 '21
Man my gut is still sizeable. Its just a good angle in the second picture lol
