Hi,

This is James from Hartford. I have been struggling with my weight since graduating from high school about 11 years ago.

Currently weigh about 340 and would like to get down to 200 pounds eventually.

I'm motivated and more than ready to help motivate others.

I will accomplish my goal and hope to help others along the way!

Thanks for your time.

James.

    Don't look at the big picture. It's easy to look at it pound for pound. I'm glad you started. That's the first step. Good luck.

    You can do it! I used to weigh over 400 lbs... I currently weigh about 205 and have been fluctuating between 196 and 206ish.. I did it completely natural. Loosing this last 40 pounds or so has been hell lol a lot harder than the first 200 that's for sure. I started loosing weight in the end of 2012 but it wasn't until 2013 where I seriously buckled down and lost weight FAST. It's possible and hard at times but you can do it! :) good luck!!
