bump, for the truckers4

You are the perfect example for those who say "I wish I could lose weight but its impossible with my job/family/busy lifestyle/[insert excuse here]". No-one ever said it was easy, but its not complicated, its down to individual willpower and discipline. Well done you for sticking with it, you look great.5

Yes it's very tough in the beginning and hitting stalls really hits hard. But as you add new notches to your belt to keep from losing your pants, the pain in your chest you realize is no longer there, you no longer snore and sleep in one spot all night. Or playing with my wife and kids and not hurting. That's the real inspiration. My family was very supportive. A good support group is a must. For all my trucker buddies if you'd like I can give tips on what I ate from the watering holes we mainly have for options.9

I can't tell you how many times I've stood behind someone in line at Subway watching them order a sandwich with no veggies, extra cheese and double sauce.1

My downfall to subway is the raspberry cheesecake cookies. Its a struggle walking away empty handed0

any loose skin problems2

Harts1416 there is the loose skin. The only issue I have is getting pulled aside at the tsa in the airport and see the caution areas on the monitor. They have to pat me down. I think I have issues with it but my wife informs me it's not bad like I think it is. Also since I lost it somewhat slowly there really isn't much, however I call it my trophy7
