I've posted a lot of pictures already in this thread: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1339501-140lb-down-i-ve-reached-my-initial-goal-with-pictures

I decided to try and remake the original picture from exactly one year ago.

So here's the before picture

july-2013-20140628-113245.jpg

And here's the one I've just recreated.

July-2014-20140718-140315.jpg

Same flip-flops and watch but I don't have the same shorts or t-shirt any more. It almost looks as though I've got man-boobs and a bit of belly but that's the loose skin I have, there's practically no fat whatsoever there now. The M*A*S*H t-shirt is a medium, the Lumberjack one is an XXXL.

    Congratulations! What a difference :)

    I like your M*A*S*H shirt, btw. When I was a kid I had one of those favorite outfits that kids tend to develop and wear as soon as they come out of the clothes dryer. The shirt was a M*A*S*H* Hot Lips 4077 shirt :)

    Congrats! Thanks for taking the time to REcreate the pic ... Before I read the note, I kept going back and forth (or shall I say up and down) I was like ...Hmmmm ...I think he has on the same watch AND the same flip flops .. they must be so surreal for you ... It sure was for me! Thanks for sharing!
