Hey guys! I am still working towards my goals but here is a few progress pictures. I am very proud of my loss and shocked at how great I feel on a daily basis.

Me and my kiddo.

I am wearing a large shirt now, down from an xxl. I wear a size 32 pants instead of side 42. I have had a loss of fat loss from my thighs but never took pictures of those.

A few people said that I looked better fat.. What do you think? I strongly disagree.

    Tell? Huge difference. And even as a guy, I can tell you they are not only wrong, but crazy.
  • Well done - what a difference - amazing
  • Yes you can tell!! I see a very big change.
    And I also agree that you don't look better fat. That's a very rude thing for someone to say to you. Keep up the great work! :drinker:

    Great work!

    Maybe there still just not used to seeing the new you, after all 5 months is a short amount of time for that much change.

    What looks good is you being able to hold and play with that little girl and also what you can't see on your inside. Great work!

    Great job! yes I can tell a big difference. The people that say you looked better before you lost the weight are uncomfortable with changes and are happy to accept mediocrity. Sometimes when a person takes a step forward to change their lives it makes other people in their lives uncomfortable bc now there is no reason for them to stay stick where they are at..

    I have found while losing weight there are people that were much more comfortable with me being meek, fat, and stuck in a bad cycle. I have found that Iosing some of my fat and have lost some other extra weight aka not true friends..

    People that cannot acknowledge the new you cannot accept that changes need to be made in their own lives that they are not accepting. If you can change your life then they should be able to change their life - this they cannot accept. Ignore them. Keep positive people in your life,

    In the face you look more like a leprechaun when you were heavier, hehe. But NO ONE looks better fat. Those ppl are just jealous of your awesomeness! Congrats! And your kid is adorable! Even more congrats for being a good healthy roll model for their future!

    Your success so far is awesome and quite evident!! And to those people who say you look better bigger, well I'm a bit rude so them I would say "Piss off" (and Piss is not the word I really would use there)...
