    Good afternoon all! I’ve been a MFP user for nearly a year and it’s really helped to reel myself in. I am a former NFL football player and found myself around 6 years removed and totally spiraling out of control. I am 6’5 so I obviously hold/hide weight differently than others. Last Summer I was up to my heaviest ever at 340, had high BP for the first time in my life, and was utterly sad and disgusting. I started small (use to do 45 mins of post workout cardio for fun, and figured I’d jump back in. 3 mins later I thought I was going to die lol) and began counting calories and slowly incorporating my old workout regime. I’ve since got back to full blown workouts and cardio sessions and I feel like a completely new man again! I will be 32 this year and I really feel like I’m getting back into my prime. I’m weighing between 275-285 in the updated photos Will post more updates in a couple months when I can. Hopefully I can inspire someone to get back to what they once were, or to show them where they can get to. Have a blessed day everyone!!

    Just reminds me about my fat to fit transformation. Kudos. Keep it up.

    Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words! Your journey has been epic as well, so congrats to you too!

    Thank you. This is very inspirational in that you didn't do any crazy diet but just counted calories and worked out. God Bless.

    Great job man this def inspires me your body type now is what I would like to have. I am a lot shorter at 5'11 but I started at 415lbs already lost about 100 lbs right now I'm bouncing between 318 and 315. I've been lifting since about February 2017 but have not gotten the results I want. Started my weight loss journey January 2016. Would be awesome to get some advice from someone like yourself man. Again great job you are looking awesome!!!

    Awesome job!! It's one thing when we want to lose weight for vanity alone, but when our health is at risk (high BP); it really does give you a whole new level of motivation! Congrats on all your hard work, you look great!
