>be 22, 6'2 250lbs
>At my graduation photos I look fat as fuck, decide to do something about it
>Start lifting, tracking calories, and stop eating out
>Get down to 180lbs in a year, have a six pack for the first time in my life, have people approach me at the gym and congratulate me on my progress, girls at my work start smiling at me
>Get an injury and stop going to the gym for a few months, never really get back into it, stop eating clean
>Slowly gain the weight back, back up to 230 on my 27th birthday
>I always manage to get 10 or 15 down then go back to old habits
