Thank you for posting this. I sent your story to a relative of mine who's husband could really use this inspiration. Last I knew he was over 350 pounds also. Granted he is 6'5", but that is still not a healthy weight.

Great work, well done. Are you sure you are 26% BF. To me the photos look like you are well under that.

You inspire me to do this... I have struggled with my weight most of my adult life and cannot wait to see what this will bring. I have committed to make a change and have been doing it on my own for about 6 months with a 26 pound weight loss. I have found exercise that I am addicted to and now have found MFP and all the wonderful people here!!

Way to go!!

You have done a fantastic job!!

And you are totally ripped!! that's all just from P90x?

Great!!

Hey thanks everybody.

No it's not all from P90X. I'll give them credit for a lot, but I stopped about a year ago and have been doing various weight lifting programs on my own.

Really inspirational, thank you so much for the post! I try to remind myself every day that I can get where I want to be and reading things like this help so much

thats a great story! im glad you decided not to do the surgery. Keep up the great work!

This definitely gave me the boost I needed today to keep going. I think us as humans we want instant gratification but in weight as like many things we have to realize it all takes time. I have a weight loss goal of 100lbs and sometimes looking at that 4lb weight loss is discouraging but after reading your story I know I can do it too...Thanks

twistygirl

Very impressive, You look great you should be proud of yourself. I will remember your words of encouragement when the scale doesn't move it will help me to hang in there. Thanks!

Vercell

Wow thanks for the motivation. Great job on your weight loss.
