It's been a long road, but well worth it!

As of this morning... weight is down and body fat is single digits, now I'd really like to build muscle...gain some shape!

Starting point...sometime in 2000-ish

First though is, keep Carbs the same, and ry a small incease of Protein and Fat.

If yu're eating 6 times a day for example, try adding roughly another 5g Protein per meal, 3g Fats approx, so you're getting roughly 50 more calories per meal, which is the region of 300 more calories a day.

If you whack in too many calories, like another 1,000 a day for example, you'll create an excess, which will convert to Fat, and then as you get stronger and need more calories, the excesss would shrink, but you'd find it harder in time, to shed the Fat you gained.

Thanks for the comments. I've been eating more and lifting harder over the last two months in an effort to put some muscle on. It seems to have worked, chest has really come out...but definition has definitely dropped with abs. Overall body fat has remained the same though. I'll try get some new pics posted soon...

Thanks again, and any advice is always welcomed!

The strange thing is, you look like you have Abs in your back as well.
