    @brenn24179- I wasn't raised in China so I wouldn't know why they're all skinny. But I can tell you this, losing weight is all about 80% mentality and 20% physically.

    I always thought it was genetics with Chinese but I guess not. You have done an amazing job. I think I was wrong when I thought 95% of Chinese couldn't have that much self control. They seem to have a lot of self control, I was reading about Chinese and they eat small portions of fish,veggies,rice not what we eat over here, tacos, pizzas,chili, etc. They seem to bike a lot and walk a lot. I guess small portions is a lot of it just like if we will do it over here. You have proven that. Guess you can ask your grandparents how they do it and share with us but I doubt we would be willing to give up completely our fatty foods over here.

    Thanks for sharing and congratulations for keeping your strong will. :heart:
    I just can add that it is easier when you are young to get the motivation about the future. When you are older, the biggest motivation is health and physical condition, because we don't care so much how who look like. So, as younger to take care of yourself, as better :drinker:

    JAW DROPPING! You look fantastic!

    More importantly, you must feel wonderful, and now able to live life and not sit on a couch with video games.

    Thank you for sharing your inspirational story. I think the best advice you have given (and I have given the same) .. you must lose weight for yourself, no one else.

    CONGRATULATIONS!

    Deffinitly not genetic that Chinese are all skinny. I'm 3/4 Chinese 1/4 Irish. I weighed in at 265lbs back in February this year now at 182lbs, my goal is 150-160lbs. I agree weight loss is more mental strain than physical. Good Job though 8)
