    @Lovoas I've got to ask man, have you bumped into an old friend that hasn't seen you in a few years and have them not recognize you at all? I mean if you squint you can tell you are the same person but it is such a dramatic change I can imagine that even a close former friend wouldn't recognize you until you pointed yourself out to them.

    I've had that happen various times. I'd say hello, and they would say hello back as to not to be rude, but would look at me confused as to why I'm saying hello to them in the first place, until I identify myself.

    Honestly, you're right. XD I have fun with it. Thanks, pal. I plan on toning up to get rid of the small amount of loose skin that I do have.

    Mini update.
    My loose skin isn't as bad, but still there. Still toning up!

    October (Halloween) 2016 Update!
    I'm currently at 180lb.

    So far, I'm working on maintenance, and keeping my weight off. I wanna lose a few more pounds, to be honest.

    October 2016 Update!

    Currently weigh 180lb at 6'3"
    Still working on maintaining my weight, and keeping the weight off.

    Loose skin isn't as bad as I thought it would be initially.

    November 2016

    Maintaining my weight has been successful so far. I'm 177lb currently.

    Here's a facial comparison between Summer 2015 and Fall 2016

    My physique is more and more toned every month. Loose skin isn't much of a problem for me despite losing as much as I did.

    Thanks! I'm glad you feel that way. And yes, that gaming analogy got me through this ride. :)
