DISCLAIMER: There aren't any before and after pictures and I didn't lose 100lbs. However, let this be inspiration for everyone currently struggling or just starting out. Something IS better than nothing.

Starting Weight - 218
Starting Waist Measurements - 45.0"
Starting Thigh Measurements - 30.0"
Starting Neck Measurements - 15.0"

The above were taken August 29th (except the weight, it was taken a week or so before)

Current Weight - 206
Current Waist Measurements - 42.5"
Current Thigh Measurements - 29.0"
Current Neck Measurements - 14.5"

Starting BMI (8/20) - 41.2
Current BMI (9/10) - 38.9

Percentage of body fat lost - 2.3%

Total Weight Loss - 12lbs
Total Inches Lost - 4"

Goal Weight - 130lbs
Also, In some of my shirts you can see my "old belly" from where i stretched them out. They look RIDICULOUS on me. Another thing is my drawstring sweat pants that i NEVER tied before, I now have to tie as tight as possible and they still fall down. My hips are the only thing holding them on. And I've taken before and after pictures (too afraid to post them LOL) and my stomach doesn't hang over anymore

So this isn't an overall big success but its many small successes that will eventually be a HUGE success. I'm so proud of myself right now, had to share it with everyone!!!

    Click the tools tab. Figure out your starting BMI using your starting weight and then do you current weight to figure out your current BMI and subtract the two numbers. Wah-la :smile:

    WOOT WOOT!! Thanks for the motivation!! I actually started the exact day you did with the exact weight, I however have not weighed myself, only because I become a scale addict so I don't even keep one in my house haha!! I will probably weigh in at my 1 month mark, I hope I can have as much success as you!!
