    I literally opened up this thread and said out loud: "Oh my god....OH.....MY......GOD!!!!!" You've blown me away. Incredibly determination, focus, and strength.

    Not sure if you meant to pose in front of a wall board that was titled "CHOICE", but I use this word DAILY for my decisions when it comes to my health progress...it all boils down to that....we CHOOSE multiple times a day on what we will do to help in our success in achieving our goals....you must have made a million choices from 400+ lbs to now.

    I'm beaming for you, your poor bones, and your happy heart! Congratulations...you are probably one of the most amazing transformations I've seen here.

    :bigsmile: :happy:

    Thanks very much. The stand ups were done intentionally at my weight loss group. It is run by a man named Harvey Brooker here in Toronto. He runs a weight loss group for men only, with a huge focus on empowerment as well as nutrition.

    There are quotes all over the walls at his classroom. Online I had the help of my wonderful MFP community. Offline I had my physical weekly meetings with the other men in Harvey's program. Together, they gave me the impetus and drive to succeed. Nobody does it alone.

    Yes, I've seen Jim speak at least once at Harvry's class and I read the article about him in the newspaper. He is an inspiration of mine.
