Dedication builds are the best in my book, no matter how they turn, out they have something most other builds don't: heart.

Wow, 56 lbs! (for us North Americans) Yup, healthy food, a modicum of exercise, appropriate sleep, intellectual stimulation and socialization with others (even remotely, as on forums like this), are all great ways to improve quality of life. Keep at it! :D

Looking good! Very steady progress... :cool:

I don't think this really qualifies as a 'snack', but I have to include it here, just because of all the in- between meals foodstuffs I could partake, this is my absolute favorite! It is sweet, and sour, and most importantly, salty! A bowl of peeled, cubed papaya, seasoned with the juice of a...
