It's been almost a year and a half since I started my journey. This is a great milestone for me personally since I recently turned 25 (last sunday) and also got down to 179lbs.
I was around 230lbs and was overweight/obese ever since I was little. I "yoyo" my diet a lot but this time I never stopped and here's the end result. I was also stuck at 186-190lbs for some time and finally got off it last month.
Back in June I was also on CNN and I never really shared it here. But you can see the link here:

(Click the 4th image) and scroll down to my name "Jason"
I hope to motivate everyone else here and feel free to add me for inspiration.
