So I told myself I would post once I lost 100lbs... believe me, there were times I did not think it would happen. then I found this cool little app called mfp... it made my diet easier for me.... I scanned bar codes, I entered exercise, I drove my wife and kids nuts. but it was worth it... I officially started on July 23, 2012 and hit 100lbs lost on March 3, 2013. my advice to anyone is to believe in yourself, you are worth it.

I decided to restart this topic with pictures

Here is a picture from 10 days before I started

    now, aside from toning up, I also have to buy some clothes that actually fit.... I think I am more scared of that prospect than actually losing the weight.
