8 months ago I was shocked when I stepped on a scale and it read almost 300 lbs...Ive been overweight my entire life, but i never thought thing would go that far. Flying that close to the sun scared the **** out of me. The next day I joined a gym, started eating right and am now training for my first triathlon. I dont know how much additional weight i need to lose (as ive never been fit before) but based on my height, id say i have anywhere from 35-45 lbs left. All i know is that ill never stop grinding!

    Love the look on your face - priceless! :drinker:

    ETA: Now you actually look your age, instead of looking like someone a decade older.

    this is great! I can't believe how much everything about you sort of changed, and your facial changes make you look like an entirely new person.

    Wow - you transformed your body and turned that frown upside-down! Truly fantastic!

    ETA: No way you need to lose another 35-40# - I'd say 20-25# and toning/muscle building. You're young enough that your skin should rebound with time & hard work at the gym. Best wishes!
