in Success Stories
Had an overtime shift with a bunch of people I don't see on a regular basis and the first three people I talked to all were blown away about how much weight I have been losing and saying I look great. Nothing like a moral booster when that happens. On lady even said "What did you do with Kody? Because you're definitely not the same guy." Glad for my success. Anyways, thought I would share my victory. Good luck to everyone on their adventure! Also, feel free to add me! On this site multiple times daily to encourage all my buddies trying(and most succeeding) to lose weight.

    That's amazing!

    I recently had a similar experience. I was on vacation for 3 weeks and when I got back, the first comment made was, "You're looking nice and svelte." I've had a few comments here and there and its great! Of course, I work with a bunch of older ladies that keep trying to lose weight but don't have the motivation to stick to it for more than a few months so I don't expect much but when its noticed, it makes all the hard work worth it!

    Exactly. I work in Law Enforcement so health is supposed to be one of those things that are a given, but it's been great to get compliments!

    Congrats! I'm looking forward to that day! It will probably be several more months before that's a possibility, probably towards the end of the year if I can keep going with this effort! I sure hope so.
