    Fantastic. I too have shed a large amount of weight and have also become an "athlete" as a result. Your story is an inspiration to everyone on this site. I wish you all the best for the future.

    Most importantly, I've learned that it's really not that complicated: eat plenty of real food. keep track of that food. lift heavy things. move around more. build a support system. never let perfect become the enemy of good. There's magic to these realizations; I never understood them before, but now they feel downright foundational.

    Very well put. Congratulations!

    Your story hits home for me. I had to step away from my desk with my phone to read it all (didn't want anyone to notice my head was down and not on the screen) but it was definitely worth it. Great job!

    I am so glad I read this - truly an inspiration! Like you, I'm 5'11" and my starting weight was just shy of 300lbs (298.6 to be exact) and, also like you, my goal weight is just to get to a healthy BMI - (I figure losing 120 will put me at 178.6, so that's my GW). Thinking about losing 120lbs is a daunting task - I'm a month and a half in and most days I still sit here and wonder how that will ever happen. Going to come back to your success story when I'm having those hopeless moments! I look forward to the day when I can post a success story on here, as well :) Congrats on your weight loss! I'm sure it's an incredible feeling!
