    What an inspiration you and your wife are. We are about the same age and I have about what you had to lose. It is SUCH a huge thing for me to see that this IS attainable. THANK YOU for sharing your story and pics. Congratulations on a new healthy life together.

    That is amazing.

    CONGRATULATIONS.

    Reaching a mark like that is incredible, because it's so uplifting. A number you haven't seen in so long, and then it's there. Right in front of you. I hope you took a picture of your scale. I know I will when I get down to an 8 (in kilos), because I haven't seen an 8 in YEARS.

    I am so proud of you. You have reach an ultimate goal that many cannot reach in a life time of work. I have no idea where we would be without each other support, encouragement and love. We started this journey in Jan 2010 with the hopes to make our lives better and to avoid the health issues that our families had succumb to. We have done way more than what we started out to do. This weekend will mark our second Ann of engagement and we dedicated our lives together then and will never look back.

    Your loving wife and life health coach!! :smokin:

    you are an inspiration to everyone. Congratulations. How long did it take you to lose that much weight? Did you have surgery to lose the excess loose skin? Did you follow any special eating program like low carb? Would love for you to post before pictures if possible.

    I'm so happy for both of you and very happy we are friends on MFP. You are both people I look up to and when I get impatient, or down I see your comments on the feed and posts and it always makes me move forward. Congrats to both of you! :heart:

    HOLY CRAP!!!!! you've done an amazing job!! I was at 330 and said its enough! in between then and now I've had a lot of "fall off the wagon" moments but I feel so attracted to eating well now and can see how much of a difference it makes in my training.

    Two and a half years of dedication and hard work and look at you guys. What an incredible, moving, motivating story. Thank you both for sharing. I won't even hold the fact that you're Cubs fans against you. ;)

    What an inspiration !!!!!!!!

    Thank you for your achievement. People like you make the world worth living in. Awesome.

    To make the last few pounds very easy may I strongly recommend the book "Life without Bread" by Dr. Lutz, you will like it if you have not read it already.
