    I know I JUST posted the other day about my crazy pants comparison but today I hit a HUGE milestone. In August 2011 when I started, I was 5'8" and 270 pounds. When I stepped onto the scale today, I saw this.

    That's 40.1% of my body weight - GONE.

    Your tremendous pants post did something to me...something akin to "shock therapy" or something like that. I used your photo and another mpfer (who is also one of my, ummmm....let's say motivators or people/pics I think of as I'm exercising in this post here just yesterday:

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/788849-no-thanks-i-m-just-looking

    Your pics are dramatic and story are dramatic to me, so utterly inspirational. When I see your results, it makes me feel like...I can do this, look at Joy, if/since she has...I can too!

    Thanks so for posting. I hope you won't mind me using your pants pic in another post either

    You look like a completely different person! I bet you have old friends that don't recognize you. You look amazing and must feel a tremendous sense of accomplishment! I started at 270 too and this was the inspiration I needed today. Thanks!!

    Congrats! You look amazing! I read your blog and I must tell you I find it very inspirational that instead of shying away from being active after your injury, you attacked it and stuck to it! Again - congratulations!!
