Starting Weight: 288lbs
Current Weight: 278lbs
Traget Weight (by July):220llbs

I have been working out with a trainer at the gym three times a week as well as trying to change the way i eat and for the first time in a long time i feel like it is working. I have the trainer paid up until july so i plan to continue with him as well as going to the gym on my own.

The advantage of so much exercise is that my muscles have started to come back, infact i have biceps and triceps as well as much stronger legs, much more stamina and better balance and that is after 1 month. I have substituted a lot of addictions in my life for the gym this month and am pleased that its working

I am a male, 6ft and was wondering if there are any guys out there who started off at my starting weight and have achieved significant loss, i would love to see pics of someone with similar starting weight to me and what the have achieved to see what i can expect.

    Hi shawn! Thanks for the reply. My aim by July is actually to have lost enough so people notice that i am losing weight, so if i can lost even 30 or 40 by july i should notice a difference right? I realized i wrote i want to lost almost 70 by july and that is probably too ambitious.
