The Power of Walking

Just wanted to say thank you for this app, it is amazing and wonderful just knowing change is possible. Overview ~18 months, 6 months counting calories, 12 months walking 4 miles a day / 100 jumps a day with the last 5 months doing at home exercises every other day.
When I first started, I enjoyed reading other people's success stories and it stuck with me that it takes time. This process was enjoyable, I never rushed and I just went with the flow. I did fail over eight times in the past, I learned and just kept experimenting until I figured out my routine.
I wanted to give back and share my progress:
Starting Weight: 385 Current Weight: 228
Starting Waist Size: 48 Current Waist Size: 34

I feel like you should have also included your starting and finishing beard length.

Great job but I fear your numbers could use some adjustment.
Lose the beard and I bet you’re a couple pounds less. 😜2 -
Amazing work my dude! As a fellow big'n-turned-pedestrian, I absolutely agree with the power of walking.
How did you change your nutrition?1 -
Walking is the best for our minds and health especially if you have somewhere nice to walk at. You did great. So happy for you.1

Sorry but I can't help perving at those legs. ahem.1

Thank you for sharing and showing that with hard work and determination that it can be done. I am glad you shared your weight graph. It has some bumps in the road where your weight went up and came back down. That helps to see that. It can be so discouraging to have a little bump up and easy to quit. Seeing your graph will be a good reminder that it's just a little bump in the road.
My son would be envious of your beard:)1 -
Excellent work sir.
You have great dedication and motivation, it really shows.
Your really rocking that beard too!1 -
Congrats! It’s a journey. I walk 30mins every morning and it is helping me shed weight gradually too👍1
