It's inspiring to hear that you were able to reach a weight of 70kg and build a nicely toned physique. Your friends' surprise at your transformation must have been rewarding. And now, being in the maintenance phase with a weight range of 63-65kg shows that you have successfully transitioned to maintaining your desired weight.

For years, I struggled to gain weight and build muscles. But once I understood the importance of a calorie surplus, everything changed. I focused on consuming an additional 200 to 500 calories above my daily needs, calculating my macros to ensure a balanced diet.

I hit the gym regularly, combining strength training and cardio exercises. I ditched mass gainers and instead relied on natural foods for my nutrition. With a meal plan consisting of eggs, oats bread, mixed rice with vegetables, and protein shakes post-workout, my body started responding positively.

Tracking macros became a habit, helping me make healthier choices effortlessly. Gradually, I saw the scale move, and my physique transformed. I reached a weight of 70kg, feeling stronger and more confident.
