I'm almost a quarter of the way there. I've had to drill out holes on my belts so they can keep my now loose-fitting pants on me. I suppose that's a good problem to have though. Still on Pavel's Enter the Kettlebell program minimum of alternating days of kettlebell swings and turkish get-ups. Still on the 16 kg (35 lb) bell for swings, but only doing bodyweight TGUs right now, which is still a workout at 375.6 pounds. Thanks to everyone for all the encouragement.
