in Success Stories
I noticed a lot of women posting their success. While there is nothing wrong with that, I am sure that the men have successes, too. To kick it off here's mine:

I started on May 5, 2011. I wore a size 68 pants and 5XL shirts.
I had the gastric sleeve surgery on September 19, 2011, I had lost 50 pounds before the surgery.
Now I am down a total of 227 pounds! I wear a size 46 pants and 2XL shirts. I am about 45 pounds from my goal.

This picture is 2 months and 20 pounds old. I bought the pants I am holding in March 2011. They are all that is left from my old wardrobe and I am keeping them as a reminder as to what I don't want to look like again!

    The Silver Scale Award is YOURS. Fantastic job!
    The percentage of guys on the site is low, and maybe guys are shyer?
