    1st - GREAT JOB!
    2nd - BMI is dumb. I'm a lean mean fighting machine and according to BMI, I'm overweight. WTF

    First off, I would like to say sorry for posting progress updates so often. When ever I hit a goal, I always just feel so excited that I want to share. Many of you have read my story before, so I'll keep it short-ish.

    I started at 270 lbs, I am now at 148. Only 18 more pounds to lose to get to goal. It's taken me more or less 14 months to go from 256 to 148, but my highest weight was 270. I did this through counting calories mostly, with the last 1/3 of the weight I added exercising. About 30-40 min of cardio a day, three days on, one day off. I'm adding a definitive weight lifting schedule starting tomorrow.

    I am now in a healthy BMI range for the first time since I was in 2nd grade. I am 25 years old, and 5'5”.

    Body progress, before- 270 After – 148
