Couldn't agree more Ron! I was just saying this point to my wife yesterday...I was saying that personally my offseason weight seems to climb more each year, and even though I am no fatter, the dehydrated weight remains as a slow and steady climb. And you're weights have supported this fully. You compete 20 pounds heavier in ten years, which to me is an outstanding improvement.

This year, I've gotten to over 190 morning weight, which is the heaviest I've ever been. I am a good 15 pounds heavier than last year at this time, and in my opinion, leaner. At this pace, I should be close to 180 on stage next year...But again, it's not gonna happen!
