A friend emailed this link to me a few days ago. It's a long story, but so incredibly inspirational. If this guy can make these changes and permanently change himself, we all can.

    Thank you for sharing that! It was so inspiring!

    I loved the quote from the old man :
    "Stick at it. You won't regret it. Time will fly by."
    So true!!

    That made me cry.

    What an incredible change!!!

    Thank you so much for posting the web address otherwise I would never have seen it.

    Totally inspirational.

    One of the things that really astounded me was his face before and after! What a difference!!!

    See, and a lot of us here are just trying to drop 15 lbs or 30 lbs (though I realize there are many on here that would like to lose over 100), but if that guy can shed THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY pounds, with a little bit of hard work, determination and inspiration like this, we'll be there in no time!

    Thank you for posting that! I had 234lbs to lose, so I can certainly relate to this story. I don't know if I will ever get the "exercise bug" like this guy did. I work out, but I don't crave it or even really enjoy it. Maybe I will find something I like like he did.

    WOW... you weren't kidding a looong story. BUT very inspirational and encouraging. Gives us, those on this weight loss journey a sense to persevere. "Stick at it. You won't regret it. Time will fly by." Thank you for sharing this piece, I will pass this site on to my other friends that are on this journey. 8~]
