    i must be mistaken then because i clearly read this : I started August 1, 2013... I weighed 320 pounds. In October, I was 256...


    just wondering.

    Thank you everyone! It does feel great to get the weight off and get healthier. It also feels great when my dad, my uncles, and others say that I motivated them to lose weight.

    Very inspirational. My highest weight was the same as your starting weight, so I am in the same book. I'm only 5'7" so I look even fatter. Great job!

    could you possibly share how you lost 64 pounds in 2 months ???? in no way am i negating your awesome success but I'd be curious to know.

    Aug-Dec would be 4 months. ;)

    Great job OP! you look awesome!

    Plus, men lose weight easier than women. Something about muscles and testosterone.

    just wondering.

    I did lose a lot of weight in a short period og time and it is pretty dramatic. I simply did the following:

    - did not have a cheat day
    - stopped drinking all sodas, pops whatever you call soft drinks
    - switched from Miller Lite to Miller 64
    - got a personal trainer 2 days a week
    - went to the gym and did cardio and weigth training the other 4 days a week
    - focused on eating cleaner foods, spring mix salads with balsamic, chicken, pork, salmon
    - protien shakes
    - made my snacks healthy; instead of chips I ate carrots, apples, snap peas - found special K cracker chips
    - kept myself dedicated to losing weight

    Taking this success and putting it to my professional life to have a successful 2014!

    That is dedication and impressive work! Enjoy the fruits of all that labor and truly hope 2014 is everything you want it to be. Took me 1 1/2 years to lose 57 lbs, but I have not worked out so what can I expect?! LOL Still overjoyed with the outcome...
