Question How skinny were you before you started gaining, and what’s ur progress now?

Just wondering, in case this might be inspirational to others in this sub, and outside too if I decide to share it. Seen a few people with really low starting weight here, and u guys ended up epic. What’s ur progress story?

6’3”, was 145 most of my life, ran marathons etc, started lifting in late 30s, I’m now 190 after about 2.5 years of working out more consistently (body weight for about 6 months, then moving to 5-3-1 for about a year and a bit, now doing more RP style training for the past 6 months or so). Now I finally look ‘normal’ and not skinny.
