    Good job man, that's awesome!

    What did you use for the stronglifts 5x5 program? Do you have a power rack at home or do you go to a gym? I want to start something like stronglifts in the spring once I drop some more weight over the winter.

    I joined a Gym, best decision ever good luck but my advice is start now and still lose weight absolutely no sense in waiting !

    awesome, and you learned how to get a proper haircut to boot!

    I always knew how to get a haircut but at 252 lbs the last thing that worried me was my crappy hair i had no self respect !

    congrats good sir, yeh you kinda did what I started out doing which is hitting weights after establishing cardio. But I hit weights 3 months into my weight loss and if I could do it all over again I would have started day 1. Less skin issues that way which I am sure you are finding out. In any event good sir I am proud of you and keep up the good work :)

    Cheers,

    Tof

    Thanks for all the positive comments people !!!
    It's easy once you realize that the only barriers in front of you are the ones that you put up if that makes sense lol.
    I made a vow to myself that there will be no more excuses and so far i'm sticking to it.
