    Back in Dec 2013, way too many jokes about how I resembled Santa Claus.
    No such comments in Dec 2014!

    You look like Daniel Craig James bond on the right lol

    I thought the same!

    Thanks! WAY happier to be compared to Daniel Craig / James Bond than Santa Claus!!!

    Lol I'm sure but I don't get the SC reference at all. You didn't look like SC

    I was the right size, a bit of grey in the beard, Christmas just around the corner ... it was too easy a target for some people. They've since found themselves at a loss for words. Revenge is sweet.

    This is my profile picture. It says it all. I was amazed when I did my measurements after being at it for a year that I had lost a total of 48 inches and my waist was the biggest change. Now, I have around 17 pounds to go according to the dr. It is all belly. So I am excited to see what I will look like when the belly flab is gone.

    What program are you doing?

    That 6 month transformation was on two consecutive rounds of P90x. I ONLY lost 1 lb per week...but over six months. Totally shocked at the results...especially when I quit alcohol in the 2nd round. I have since completed 3 rounds of Body Beast...and am now working on Body Building and Proportions (Aesthetics).

    This video shows more about my transformation...I went from 1 pull-up to muscle ups...it is amazing what you can do...once you believe you are worth the effort.

    I am still going...and I will not stop...
