    Heh. This was one of the first threads I read when I started on here. Really enjoy seeing these large success stories.

    Now I'm more than half way there myself. ;)

    I don't really have a before and after pic but I started my journey about three years ago. Started out around 405 pounds and currently 224 pounds. A total of 180 lbs lost. About half way through my weight loss I started noticing a knot on the right side of my neck after having it checked out discovered that it was a tangerine sized tumor growing near my corrotid artery (not sure is I spelled that correctly or not). I would have never known it was there if I would have decided to lose weight, so making the choice to get healthy has saved my life in more ways than one!

    That's a pretty amazing story there! Kudos to you!

    I lost 102 lbs through eating fairly clean and staying active. I'm currently plateau-ing in the 140's but I plan on losing a couple more pounds.

    Before - around 245 lbs

    Wow you have done so well. What an awesome job.
    Like you, I "discovered" a lump in my abdomen after losing 20 kgs ( 44lbs). My GP said she couldn't feel it and I insisted on a CT scan. Turned out I had an umbilical hernia the size of a large fist, had my surgery in December. Would never have known if I had not lost the weight.
    All the best with your continuing healthy lifestyle!
