Started 1st Jan @ 99KG.

Had some blips and a couple of months off (Mar, Apr), but found MFP start of July and it has really helped my progress. The forums, and excellent information on food and exercise within, have been a massive help and I have learnt a great deal.

Today sees a weigh in of 80KG, which was the initial goal I set back in January. This has dropped my BMI from 35 to 28.

I am now on a mission to continue on with it as I'm still carrying excess in the usual areas for a guy and I want to get a better shape. Now heavy lifting 3x per week and 2 days of cardio. I don't have a set weight I want to get to, more a set idea in my mind of how I should look.

One of the key motivators in all of this, is the continued postings for everyone on MFP of their own successes; it breeds the attitude of 'if they can do, I can do it'. So, thank you to everyone for that.

No before pics (never even thought to do them back then), so not much point in a current pic. However, here is a direct link to a screenshot of my own Excel progress chart and stats (it's too wide to post in-line).
