    Awesome! Keep up the great work! I've shaved my weight off and have been maintaining and it's not as easy as it sounds. Looks like you've been maintaining for a long time! An inspiration! Thanks! =)

    Its wierd to look back sometimes i dont even recognize myself...never give up, its a daily lifelong battle.

    Ill tell you the biggest thing that helped me was to switch my mindset from trying to look good, and getting attention from women.... to trying to achieve...getting in the ring was the best thing I ever did, maybe being a fighter isnt for everyone but i highly recommend training towards some sort of athletic performance, running, cycling, basketball...whatever..if you have to compete and meet a deadline things become much more "real" because there are repurcussions if you slack, especially if you are a part of a team.

    Holy crap!!! That's phenomenal. I'd love to hear any other tips you have from your journey - especially for us non-pro atheletes. :wink:

    I have started walking slow at first, then building up to <15 min miles - 10 miles is my distance record. Now I've started on a couch to 5K run training program, and am signed up for the Army 10 Mile run in DC in October. Feels good to actually be able to move.

    Dont get too worried about distances and times in the beginning, the goal is hitting the "i wanna quit" barrier. Run and DO NOT STOP until you are thinking in your head this really hurts, its painful and i cant breath and iI need to stop.....Now push on for 5 more minutes.

    As you progress this breaking point will get further and further out, but it needs to be faced and conquered every single time you train.

    for motivation i would ask myself :

    "if there was a gun to my head or my mother's life depended on it...could i keep going for just five more minutes?"

    ...99% of the time, if you are honest with yourself...the answer is ALWAYS yes
