    Hey, I tried to keep my diet clean and simple. Lots of fruits and veggies. I started by walking every day, now I run and do weight training. I also go for a 5k walk every day.

    What's your story. How'd you lose it?

    Basically I got a herniated disk in my back last year. I was trying to figure out how to fix it without surgery and I found out that basically the best way is to lose weight. I did it in stages. I started by walking 5k each day. Then I started tracking my food, then I made improvements to my diet. When I hit 258 lbs I started running and gym training. From there its history, I lost surprisingly quick and unintentionally quick too.
