This I speak from experience, taffer your loose skin, depending on how long you were big, you may not lose it all, I know I am 5'11, I was once ( way back when) over 200 pds.......I have yo yoed many times, this last time with a medical issue, but i seem to be staying here at 129, 130 or so......
Keep building your knowledge and trying new things, it cant hurt and can only help you.......Any questions feel free to PM Me..... (and yes I really was a fat kid/college student!!!!!!!!!!)

well, i wouldnt mind stacking on another 10-15kg in the next year, however i do want to be lean, my arms are pretty small, but i hate the fat on my stomach, i figure i will cut this summer (dec-jan-feb here in australia) then bulk up, i hope i can cut as much bodyfat as possible
i hate to admit it, but i really did want a "john stone" like transformation! (if you dont know who john is Invalid Link Removed)

yeah i tried bulking, lasted about 7 weeks then i got all guilty cos summer was coming up so i started cutting again 
i do hear losing bodyfat is good for loose skin
the calipers have me at 12% bodyfat, do you think thats accurite?, i would really like to get to at least 10% before bulking
sorry to hijack the thread, i didnt mean too!! send me a PM if you want

Well when I started 30 years ago I was in the army and was 190 pounds @6'4
sarted lifting and got as huge as 300 pounds when I was power lifting.Currently
I'm 230 pounds headed for 260 for my winter bulking when I started this 2 months ago
I was @ 220 and 10% b/f and I've only gained 1% b/f.

aproximately one year ago i was a seriously out of shape 320lbs(bf 35%+), right now im around 235, low 20%bf
I have put on a bunch of muscle though, which was important to me. i want to end up around 205, but solid. I dont really wanna get any bigger than that for competition purposes (grappling and stuff)
So yeah 100lbs in a year pretty much, i first started just walking and eating less, that dropped me down to 290, then i did a CKD for a while , actually gained a bit of muscle while dropping 30lbs or so. Then i did a recomp (had been dieting for a long time) cycle with t1 Pro, ended up with more muscle and less fat.. not bad
started my current cycle at 255, now im around 235, and ive gained at least a few pounds of mass.

125-130ish at 6'1 about 3 years ago...
right now i'm hovering at 175... frame and muscle that i started with is still the same; it limits me quite a bit...
may start IGF1 eventually to help myself out
visually it is a tremendous difference... its borderline "stripper" level i guess... if i didnt have acne on my body occaissionally, I'd model clothes

Six years ago, I weighed 129lbs at 6' and probably about 3-4% bf. I was a distance runner at the time, but had to give it up because of arthritis. Two years ago, I peaked all natural at 193 and about 10% bf. Took a year off and slipped to 178 and a higher fat %. Now I'm at 185 and 11-12% pushing for the ever alusive 200 @10%. Maybe by summer with a little help. I've learned the first 50lbs are relatively easy to get and maintain. From that point on everything has got to be in line to continue to grow.

Currently 192 roughly 10% bf. Training seriously for 4-5 years. Started at 145 and 12-13% bf.
Finding the right whey protein did as much as PHs I'd have to say. Creatine did little for me, especially since I never used it consistently enough.
Goal is to be a consistently lean 200-220 and maintain with as little(or no) androgen help as possible. Not a BBer, just want to be big.

Started at 6' 170-175 @ est 20+% 4 years later (took a combined year off) 212-217 @ 12-13% bf. Could have been much more serious about it though, my starting 2 years were at home with a nice bench, 300 lbs, dumbbells up to 65 and apull-down station. About a year and a half ago I started going to a gym and I have become much more dedicated now that I work out with other people. I lifted some for football before, but I never stayed serious about lifting year round.
