Just thought i'd say hello.
My name is Jeremy I started working out again back in july 6th 2010, since then I have lost 70Lbs.
I went from 290lbs to 229lbs."I still got about 40lbs to go."
unfortunately I just found this program afew weeks ago.
Anyway i'm 31 years old and my favorite pasttime/jobs are photography and anything computers"programming,building,fixing,video games and etc."
I'm mainly doing this so I don't end up like my mother, she 74 and is over weight and has tons of health issues"diabetes,restless leg,heart attacks afew yers ago and so on."
I got a boy named Raisin he's a Basset hound, hes another reason i'm doing this.
Well thats it.
Heres a Before and After so far"

Me at 230lbs Me at 290lbs
Oh yeah i'm 6'1in and size 13 shoe, so I'm naturally a big guy.
