great job

Hi everyone! Well I have FINALLY built up the courage to put together a before and IN-PROGRESS photo collage of myself. I HOPE this works!! Please be gentle. This isn't the MOST recent pic but I'm only truly 2 lbs lower than the pic I put up! My BEFORE and February 2012 In-Progress Pics I apologize for all those...

Greetings 4 Hour Peeps I had a rough couple days this week. I ended up in a couple situations mostly at work I'm a barista at Starbucks. Yeah I get to stare at pastries 8hrs-a-day 5 days-a-week gnarly. where I found myself VERY hungry and with no slow carb food in sight I dare you to find ONE thing to eat at Starbuck...

Looks like I've reached my weigh loss goal and some! My goal was to go from 125lbs at 22 to 105 and 18... I've fallen off track a few times jumped back on and 2 months later I'm at 103 lbs and I'm guessing I'm going to finish off this week and take an average of the body fat that I'm at 15 body fat now. I'll po...

I'm nervous and feeling a little bamboozled. Just finished a cheat day that I honestly looked forward to all week but then I woke up this morning feeling like I didn't really need it and was enjoying the diet so far...but I felt like it was part of the plan so I should stick with it. I'm not doing supplements and only got...

I've been avoiding looking at the before photos but I'm at the point where I want to to avoid backsliding during the new year. I'm not doing the scary underwear photos in case people I know stumble across them and I don't have the full dramatic changes of some of you but I'm happy with the changes I've seen since I started...

Hi All. I've been on SCD since about mid-April. I haven't been keeping track of inches or lbs rather I've just been going by how stuff fits. As long as my pants are getting bigger I'm happy! In the past month I have started Kettlebell Swings and Jogging. So far I am down three sizes and I think around 22 lbs. The photo o...

Believe it or not until I had pictures taken I could NOT see any change in myself. The scales and the tape measure said I was changing but I just couldn't "see" it. I really recommend taking pictures like these to confirm. Start Date December 29th 2010 - weight 93.3 kg 205.6lbs - body fat 45.3 horrifying! Pictures ta...

So i started at 200lbs before starting the four hour body. I didn't measure my body fat just because for one I totally believed that this diet would work and also I could tell i was losing body fat just by the way my clothes started to fit. My first mistake i made on this diet was doing steak for lunch and beef for dinner ...

Hey Guys! Just thought I'd share my story. The more the merrier right? One day in late April I tipped the scales at 120kg 265 lbs. I'm around 185cm 6'1" and a solid build. In my youth I was pretty active with sports but now at 41 I don't do much - infact the last 4 mths specifically has been 100 exercise free no...

Fellow Slow Carbers! As part of my plan to get healthy I planned on doing the one thing I've hated to do the most running. I've never been much of a runner and even in HS I always weaseled out of running. Needless to say with all the weight I had put on over the years and the little mobility I had as a computer technicia...

What does your body look like after living and breathing the Four Hour Body? Post your best before & after photos and measurements here. Here's my results after just 3 weeks Before 125lbs 30 body fat After 106lbs 20 body fat Update A few have been asking about my diet and exercises so here you go I didn't want t...

I have struggled with weight my whole life but a year and a half ago I decided to make a change. I did a diet that was similar to the slow-carb diet but it lacked sustainability. I hear Tim Ferris on the Joe Rogan Experience and was instantly blown away by his immense knowledge. I got the book and love the diet so far!

For those of you in the muscle building phase and following Geek-to-Freak or Occam's protocol I recommend taking before & after photos to track your results. I'm ecstatic about my results I started the Geek-to-Freak protocol only 12 days ago after successfully losing 15lbs in 3 weeks from the slow-carb diet and check me ...

Yesterday was my 30th day of tracking my weight I started the slow carb diet on May 17 at 275.6 lbs and weighed in this morning at 256.8. Yes the scale reads an 18.6 lb loss. However the moment I started working out a little harder doing Jiu Jitsu and Kettlebell exercises I nearly plateaued in my weight loss. Pret...

Hi everyone! I'd like to share the successes I've had with the 4HB slow carb diet. I started 16 weeks or approximately 4 months ago. I have not had access to any BF measurements but would appreciate estimates from the photos! Here are some measurements in centimetres! Week 0 Waist - 96.9 Hips - 100.8 Total Body - 378.8...

This may not sound like party-town to all you young people on here LOL but I'm excited so please share my happiness with me and since I cannot drink have a cold one on cheat day! and make a toast to Tim for me! I've been on meds for high blood pressure for at least 5 years now. The past several weeks my blood pr...

So I'm posting these here as an incentive to get my arse straight into gear again after indulging over the week in lieu of my time of the month. As you can see there is very minimal change in the photographs after four weeks and I have lost very little on the scale 2lbs. However I think that this is because a I have...

It's not much but for me the results are already showing off My starting waist size was 152cms now I have 137cms My initial weight was 350 pounds and now I got 343 last time I checked I still don't know about body fat I just got my caliper so I will do my measures by myself from now on I did this combining the Slow C...

Howdy folks So my aim was to gain weight cos I was seriously skinny. I'm still very thin but not as sickly thin as before and I feel so much better physically and mentally. I thought it was about time I uploaded some pics of my first ever successful diet. I probably could have done better but I'm proud of the results. ...

Update 2/3/12 - replaced pictures. Not sure how long it's been off hand but added the most recent picture. UPDATE! It's almost 6 months for me now I just turned 26 and I was actually a bit surprised to realize I've been at it this long. I really am getting comfortable with eating like this and I don't see myself endin...

I did for the first few weeks starting by doing 3 x 30 swings...thinking it was tough going then one day decided to see if I co...

Well its hardly the claimed 20lbs in 30 days that's for sure Starting Weight 88Kg Ending Weight 83.8Kg Total loss is around 9lbs - which is I guess what you could manage on most diets. broken down by weeks my results are Week 1 ...

I made a 6-month commitment to myself for 4HB/SCD and started back on May 15. Today is November 15 and I am VERY proud to say that I have THIRTY-FIVE lbs off!! This forum has been a true delight for me during this time. The people here are knowledgeable supportive polite and so friendly. I've learned so much from ot...

I'm a visual person...I have 2 jars on my desk...1 says "pounds to lose" and 1 says "pounds lost" filled with gem rocks each representing 1/2 lb. This Saturday I had to take from the pounds lost and put back into pounds to lose.....Oh my it was so disheartening....so I had to look at my week. These are the things I fo...

Hey guys here are my before and after pictures while on the SCD. It changed my life. Really. I've been off it for about 2 weeks now and am experimenting with occams but I just love the way I feel when on the SCD so I'm officially back on starting this week. I didn't keep much track of my inches because I was seeing obvio...
