    Dude that's awesome. I can relate to so much of what you wrote it's frightening.

    ...but your results are enough inspiration to power through my next 60 pounds of fat loss.

    Congratulations to you and here's to everything the future now has in store!

You are an inspiration to us all and I can't thank you enough for sharing your story. It's nice to know there are other people who understand where I've been and where I'm going :)

    Thank you my friend. I also started at about 480 and the goal is to drop about 250 or so. I have already lost over 130 so I got a long way yet to go. I know I will make it but your success shows it can be done and helps reinforce my determination. Your the Man.:drinker:

    This was very touching. I read your post before I scrolled down to the pictures and I could literally feel your dread. Dread at doing the simplest of things. And that really got to me. What an amazing accomplishment! It must have taken a lot of determination, awesome job!

    PS: There was totally a tiger hidden under those Big and Tall shirts. Just sayin'.
