60 + Pounds down Almost there now!

This was me before I decided to control my weight, It was getting completely out of hand, I'd put on more and more every year! I joined a Gym last September which was a pretty big deal for me and probably the best move I've made in a long time! Anyway Starting weight was about 270 ish and now I'm down to 212 lbs! Still going strong and I feel alot better (aside from the nasty cold I have right now...)

    excellent job! any hints and tips?

    Thanks everyone! For me, I would never have managed to stay on track without exercise regularly and intense levels. I'm talking minimum 40 mins of cardio a day and 3 to 4 times a week. I found that it was especially good at stopping hunger and cravings if I went to the gym BEFORE my evening meal. For me that was the most important change I had to make and continue to do! I hope it helps! :)
