It is amazing isn't it? . The whole male side of my family is like half yeti. I just go over it with clippers every now and then. If I don't then everything sort of grows in together, from the beard to chest to the back, like a hair hoody. Don't think that would look too great lol.

Surprisingly I actually started going bald at around 21. Another trait of the males in my family.

Oh well I think it suits you just fine...some people just have the right look for bald...I think it looks better than having hair on some people. Same with glasses...the glasses look looks better on some than others. I don't think I look as good without my glasses. I don't think I look great with them :P but better than without. I'll post a picture with and without in a bit.

I'm continually amazed at how Primal causes men to lose hair below the neckline.

Hahahaaaa thanks for the laugh!

Here are my pics after 6 weeks of eating primally (but not quite perfectlly primal and not organic) and doing CrossFit 3 times a week (modified and scaled).

Note: There is no weight loss during this time!!

Aunt Pol:
I have to tell you how much your pictures have been on my mind since I saw them. Just six weeks of 3x Crossfit weekly! This has been so inspirational and motivational to me .... at a time when I am really needing it. Like you, I also much prefer group exercise. It definitely does make me work harder than when I'm on my own, and also my (barre3) instructor comes and hunts me down when I don't show up. I've only been going 2x a week, but this has motivated me to commit to 3x (after I heal up from a hip injury, that is).

I also hope that you will repost these in batty's excellent thread for women on scale weight vs. body comp. changes.

Oh my gosh! I finally made it through this whole thread, ok, no I did not read every comment, but most, I have been working through this for weeks. It is so inspirational. I cannot wait till I have an after that I can photograph and put here so all the boys will say how hot I am!!!!!

Thanks so much to all for sharing, it really does help.

Might I just submit to the data-set that I am a 28 year old female who truly finds hirsute men on the balding-side attractive (as long as theyre in shape or trying to be, which fortunately we are not lacking around here )

Hooray! Welcome to the present!

Well I did write a post in the meet and great forum (http://www.marksdailyapple.com/forum/thread37542.html) but I thought I could post my picture here too.

I started primal last year in february at 185lbs and 6 feet tall. Over the next months I lost 50 lbs, I went down to 135lbs and felt kinda skinny so I decided to drink milk and workout on a more regular basis.

The first picture is from the end of july 2010 at 135lbs, and on the second picture from the last days of september 2010 I weigh 150lbs


Sadly I don't have any picture on my body when I was at 185lbs of flab and fat.

Now I weigh 160lbs with a bit more flab but I will start to eat clean again.

You look great! Good job!

Thank you I will try to take some new pictures since the ones I posted are old

The slight tan alone is a huge improvement, great job!

hi folks,

i had a bit of a rough pb evening (just a low, to be followed by a high to be followed by a low and so on) and so i came to the forum for some inspiration. I found this thread and since i found solace in it, i decided to contribute my own before and after photos for the next person who visits needing the same.

My before picture, from the early 2001.


i was right at 300 pounds at my heaviest, though these photos are probably around 270s. In 2003, i lost 110 pounds (exercising and counting calories with a sad) and then dropped another 40 in 2007 (giving up refined sugar, but not carbs in general). Two and half months ago, i started pb and experienced a redistribution of weight. I am still 150 pounds, but my clothes fit as if i were 5-10 pounds lighter.

Official "after" picture, taken a couple years ago after eliminating refined sugars.


a couple weekends ago in the garden.


trying to eat one of mark's nut butter bars last weekend while it's falling apart on me.


last october before a push-up challenge called "octoberchest."

amazing!!!
