    BTW, I leave my food diary open for viewing. I'm no expert, and don't claim to know it all (far from it), but if anyone wants to see what I'm eating that keeps me full and allowed me to lose the weight, feel free to add me.

    Oh, and before that raises an eyebrow, there's no *special* products involved. Just lots of vegetables and meat, not too much bread & carbs. I use some protein powders etc, but I buy them from a variety of sources (mostly at a health food store or Costco), and I'm not pushing or selling anything.

    Thanks for all the positive comments. Makes my day.

    I started in April of 2011 at 285 lbs and a 40 inch waist. In 14 months, I was down to 196 lbs and a 34 inch waist. When I started, I had higher than normal blood pressure (was almost in need of high blood pressure meds), I had sleep apnea, ran out of breath easily, was always too hot and uncomfortable, and got sick often. I had been working shiftwork (nights and days) for 14 years straight. I wouldn't say I ate terrible food, but I was pretty inactive. Probably on my way to a heart attack.

    Now, I switched to working days only, workout about 6-9 hours a week, and eat healthier. I am stronger, faster, healthier, and have a resting heart rate of 46 and normal blood pressure. Oh, and I haven't been sick for over a year.

    MFP kept me on track and educated me on what to eat and what not to eat. Thanks.

    Good job! You look totally happy and content. My son is transforming in front of me. He works crazy hours and has/had hbp and sleep apnea. (railroad engineer) He has taken control of his life and I am so proud of him. He even introduced me to MFP and I am having success too!
