On my way to 100+ lost...would love some motivating friends!

Hello all, I'm Billy. A 29 year old stay at home father of 2 beautiful girls. I started my journey this year as a new years resolution with my wife and have not turned back since! I won't bore you with the standard I've been overweight my whole life and failed many diets thing..although true, we know why we're here....to change our bodies and lives and to inspire and motivate others in doing so!

I've been eating healthy and exercising since January 1st and am down 56 pounds since! I am shooting for 100+ this year but at this rate I feel I could go above and beyond that. I'd love to get some friends on board with me to help challenge and motivate one another every day!

So if you'd like an active MFP friend, please add me...I have progress pics up on my profile as well, but will also throw some in here :)

I'm 6'4" so I guess that's an advantage in all this or at least what I tell myself, lol. (My goal is 250-260, which for my build would be average)

    Hi Billy,
    I also have 100+ to lose and I am on here daily.
    Friend request on the way...
    You look Great. Such a difference..
  • This is nice effort because it's really difficult to loss weight. We should try to give up the habit of excessive eating and replace it with healthier activities if you want to enjoy the life in the best possible fashion.
