Alright folks! Good to meet you all!

My name's Tim - I weighed in at 457 lbs in January and took most of the spring and summer off due to some personal issues! Now I weigh 401.5 lbs and am shrinking every week! I run a VLOG on youtube that you can follow if you like: (http://www.youtube.com/user/thjudd). Be sure to comment and upvote all you want! My goal is 200 lbs, that means a total loss of 257 pounds! Its going very well so far! I look forward to talking to and working with all of you and support you on your journey as well!

I'm not much for introducing myself, but if you have any questions, shoot them my way!

P.S. I'm a 30 year old gay man who has a very loving partner who supports me even as a heavy guy and thinks I'm hot now. I'm doing this for myself!

Sincerely,
Tim

P.S. if someone can tell me how to activate HTML, I'd obviously appreciate it ;)

    Sweet! Love to talk to you about your experiences and adventures through gay society! UGH! haha anyway - remember to do it for yourself. I never thought anyone would love me if I was fat - but as soon as i started thinking positively and changing for me - someone came along who loves me for me. His name is Keno.

    Listen to Katy Perry's Firework for inspiration! I KNOW I DO!!!

    Love that song! I wept the first time I watched the video. Sometimes we all need a reminder of how amazing we are, or are capable of being.
