I've posted some threads in here before showing full progress of my weight loss and since November I've been pretty much on maintenance. Two of the previous threads are here and here.

I'm now at an all time low having lost a fraction under 167lb which is a touch under 12 stone lost, or a tad under 76kg for those who work in different weights.

No progress pictures in this thread, just the before and after ones. If you want to see the progress shots, take a look at the threads I've linked.

Here I was back in July 2013 when I weighed 328lb.

And here I was yesterday in a new shirt and new pair of jeans (501s with a 30" waist) weighing in at 161lb. I've lost over half my original bodyweight.

This has been done by the simple method of calories in vs calories out. I walk a minimum of 5 miles/day which I track with a FitBit and I eat less than 2,000 calories. No fad diets, no restricting what I eat at certain times of the day, I don't care about macro breakdowns, it's just basic calorie counting and portion control.

    That is awesome.

    Do you have people who have not seen you in a while not recognize you?

    I am just starting my journey. It feels daunting when you have such a lot to lose and I can't really think that far ahead; one day at a time.however seeing that you have achieved what I am setting out to do is encouraging. It makes it real and answers the doubts I have about whether or not I can do it. Well done, and thanks for the inspiration!
