I started my journey at 283 unhappy and unhealthy. I finally did something about it instead of making excuses and feeling sorry for myself. I started just eating clean and dropped about 40lbs in 3 months. After the 3 months I started going to the gym doing both cardio and strength training. Between February and now I have went from 283 to 202. My ultimate goal is to drop another 30lbs or so.

That's fantastic! That's what I like to hear: losing the old-fashioned, healthy way, no fads or gimmicks. You'll be able to keep it off much easier that way.0
