    Dude..That is freakin' awesome! So glad to see this. Currently, I'm over 400, don't know by how much though, the scale at the gym only goes to 400lbs, and I'm looking to get down to about 220. I'm a bit shorter than you, only 5'10 or 5'11, depending on how the convenience store tape is hung, but I'd be ecstatic about 220, hell I'd be ecstatic about 250, haven't been 250 since I was about 14 years old. Awesome job man! Would love to hear more about your story and what all you did to come so far. Thanks for sharing this!

    Awesome!! I can imagine how you feel. I am 8 days from my 10 month anniversary and have dropped 133 lbs (350 on Jan 9th, 216 last monday). My goal is 200 and it's finally close. Haven't been there since my military days 20+ years ago. I'm always looking for nutrition ideas. Any particular foods you find most helpful keeping you satisfied?

    I wish MFP allowed foods or diarys to be shared. You can look but can't see the individual details on someone else's diary.

    That is great! I basically eat the same thing everyday. Low calorie foods that are filling. I only eat about 1,250 calories a day, which is somewhat controversial and not for everyone, but it has worked for me. I have an open diary, and you are welcome to look at it.

    That is an amazingly fast weight loss. I guess you put the lie to the whole "starvation mode" idea, eh? Lots of people would say that a guy your size needs way more calories, but I think for those of us that have a lot to lose, different rules may apply, since we have plenty of nourishment in our fat cells. THANK YOU so much for posting your story. It's very, very inspiring that you could lose so much so fast. I have a lot to lose, also, and feel more motivated than ever now.
