in Success Stories
So i hit a major milestone today, I'm down a total of 100 pounds since
Sept. 9th of last year (9 months 2 weeks 6 days ago), i'm 34 pounds away from my weight
loss goal that my doctor and i set. I have not been this weight since i was atleast 15-16
years old (21 years ago), I honestly dont remember seeing this weight on a scale.

Measurements wise so far, i've lost 10" off my waist, 8" from my chest, and 2" off my
neck. i'm down 5 pants sizes and 4 shirts sizes. (Nice not having to shop in Big&Tall stores anymore)

Physically and mentally I feel a lot better, and with exercise i'm actually able to run and do other physical
activities without being out of breathe and dying within minutes. I finished the C25K on 5/24/14 and try to run 5K at least 2-3x a week now, along with ice skating and bike riding.
This is a major milestone in my journey. I can see the finish line now!

    Wow! Well done! You look great! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    I joined a 100's club a few years back but it was something altogether different from this kind of 100's club. (100 shots of beer in 100 mins. I was pretty sick after that. Haha :drinker: )

    One thing that's funny, people I haven't seen in a while like at work, either don't recognize me, or do a double take :p

    I'm on my way to losing over 100 pounds. Have you had any loose skin issues while losing at that rate? Thanks for any info and congrats.

    So far it's not too bad, I feel like once I get into weight training more it won't be a huge issue. I may have my stomach skin removed if it bothers me when I hit my goal.

    Great Job! You're looking great. Just think back, 100 pounds ago about how you were feeling about yourself, about life, etc. I imagine that person is gone and he should be, you've earned it!

    It's a weird feeling when I think about it, I still at times have it in my head I'm that size, like when I go out to eat and I wonder how tight the booth will be, then sit down and realize I have plenty of room.
