Transformation: Josiah Dorton Drops an Insane 111 Pounds!

What Was Your Life Like Before Your Transformation?

I hated everything. Being in the military I have to take physical fitness tests. I failed and was at risk of being kicked out. I was depressed and resorted to eating more food to feel better.

When I failed my Air Force PT test my career was threatened and I knew I had to make a change.

What Were Your Major Struggles or Challenges?

Clothes didn't fit, hard to breathe, health was at risk, made fun of, always picked last for anything, and I was unable to be the example I needed to be for my children and my troops.


Detail Your Workout and Cardio Plan During Your Transformation

I trained like a madman. Used articles from Marc Lobliner and Steve Shaw off the content site. I did absolutely zero cardio.

Detail Your Diet/Eating Plan During Your Transformation

I was told its "impossible" and that I wouldn't be able to lose 100 pounds, step on stage, earn a pro card, and then place top 10 in a pro show...well I did all that and I am continuing to do more. The mind is a powerful tool and most people don't realize it is the single most important part of who you are. You seriously can do anything...I mean ANYTHING if you truly believe in yourself. #fit #fitfam #machinefuel #machine #mtsdemo #mtsnutrition #machinemilitia #MTSstreetwarrior #workharderclothingco #whcc #naturalprocoaching #naturalpro #nattymuscle #naturalbodybuilding #inba #pnba #nga #bodybuilding #boom #weflexwednesday

I only had one mistake. I would let people get to me by saying you can't do it. I gave up a few times before I finally realized who my true supporters were.

3 Biggest Things You Learned During Your Transformation?

1. I can do anything with the right mindset.
2. The mind is the most powerful muscle.

Final Works of Advice for Others Looking to Make a Change?

Don't give up, stay true to yourself, and always stay humble. Try to bond with family and let them know the struggles and how you really feel inside.

I've accomplished so much in 3 years. I actually have become a member of the MTS Street Warrior Crew! I love representing a company that is a believer in others just as much as I am! Thank you Marc and Katie for that!
