I am now under 300 pounds!
I started this weight loss journey in November at 371 pounds! I can officially say I am in the 200 club today at 298 pounds! At my heaviest, I was wearing a size 52 pants and a 4x tall shirt. I am now in a size 42 pants and a 2xl shirt. However the compression shirt I have on in the pic is only an XL!

    Outstanding!

    You and I must be secret twins.

    371 lbs down to 293 for me.

    Doesn't it feel awesome to get over that 300 line?

    Wow! What an inspiration you are! May I ask for some tips on how to stick to it? I work so hard and when I come home I'm so tired I don't feel like making healthy meals, I just want to grab the bad stuff...=(

    You look great!! I was too embarrassed to tell people how much I weighed so could never share the amazing feeling it was to finally be under 300. When I heard that scale say the 290 instead of 300, I danced around the living room and you should have seen the looks I got from the kids. They thought I had lost it. I'm so happy for you!! And in such a short time. You're doing great!!

    I eat whatever I want but keep under my calorie goals. I try not to eat back my exercise calories. I have recently started working out for longer amounts of time. It took me a couple of months to get built back up to handle a workout longer than 30 min.

    wow, i am amazed at your results. I just started about two weeks ago and you really have to want this change to happen in order for it to occur. Keep up the good work!

    Thanks Marty! Before my Hip replacement I worked for a tire repair shop. I did the commercial, farm and heavy equipment for almost 8 years. Also I played Nose tackle way back in the day even had a very short career for a minor league football team. All helped build my calf muscles!
