      Wow this is an amazing story. Thank you for letting us see one of your darkest moments, as it is inspiring. It would have been easy for you to stay the same (well obviously not easy), but you chose to fight and work for a goal you set. Congratulations sexy man!

      Wow. Just WOW. I am in awe of not only your physical transformation but the transformation you had in mind and spirit. The determination and willpower and the strength you must've had to have to change your life. Amazing.

      You're story made me cry a little. I feel like that every time I go shopping, which isn't often because I usually leave disappointed and with clothes that don't actually fit me the way I want it to fit. Congratulations on your success. I'm really happy for you, hopefully I can get my butt into gear and lose this weight. Thanks for sharing.

      I just about want to cry reading this. I am starting out at 428 and I am down to 414 in the past month. I know that feeling and I do all my current shopping at the Casual Male XL. There is nothing Casual about the Casual Male. I think I am going to print out your story and have it to read when I feel discourage and need to know there is hope. Thanks for sharing.

      I Will be your friend , if you'd like. I am at 355 and have a long way to go. I think we all need all the support we can get! Diane

      I feel like crying reading and seeing this because I want this change so bad. I am almost 400 pounds and I don't know where to start. I really want results like these. I want to be happy. A happiness I know I've never felt.

      O-M-GOODNESS!!!! DUDE, YOU'RE MY FRICKING IDOL!!!! WOW! THIS AMAZES ME! I've been overweight ALL my life, even as a child! I know exactly how you felt when you talked about shopping! I love clothes, but I HATE shopping for them. In high school, my mom would take me shopping, and I would sit in the dressing room crying! The clothes that I could fit, I really didn't want! All of the good stuff stops at a size 38-36! I've grown to hate it so much that I don't go anymore! I have about 4 pairs of pants and a couple of shirts. You are truly an inspiration! I hope that we can be friends! I pray that you would not mind helping me through my own journey! Kudos to you!!!! Oh Yea, you should really think about writing as a career!
