Mid conquer

Midconquer update. Backsliding but still here. I'll post an update again next May and we'll see where I'm at. Onward.

Your waist looks more defined now. Sometimes you gain a little but remain same size, even lose a little bit of size. That looks like you. Don’t panic. Deep breaths and stay with it. You’ve come too far and done to well to be a “back again” poster in a year or two. 😘

Lost 104 lbs now! Down from 284 to 180 in about 17 months.

Great Job CurtisHouse180!! Your progress is amazing!

Thank you! Now I really need to work on the loose skin especially around my stomach. Crazy to think how much I've lost. Thank you, mfp! Wouldn't be able to have done it without this site.

Here's an update.

Two and a half years, 85lbs. lost.

Good job!

I've been going back through old rowing photos, so will add an additional before & after (3 phase) here from those. I apologize for the really fuzzy photos, because some of these are old.

I started rowing in 2002. This is me then, at age 46, shortly after cancer treatment (2000-2001), when I was first starting to get regularly active. It's from the weekend camp where I rowed for the very first time ever. I look lots younger here (dark hair!), but I think pretty doughy, physically.



Starting January 2003, I was rowing regularly (I got addicted!). The next photo is from Summer of 2013, so I'd been rowing for 10 years. I'm still around the same weight (class 1 obese) as in the previous photo, and age 57. Maybe I flatter myself, but I think I look a little more compact, less doughy, and I know I'd dropped at least one pants size at the same body weight. (This is in the rowing tanks at a camp at Boston University - tanks are an indoor simulator for on-water rowing.)



In 2015, I lost weight from that class 1 obese level to the healthy BMI range at age 59-60, 50-something pounds down, and have been in that range since. I'm still rowing about the same amount. Here's a photo from earlier this summer, in a double rowing shell, at our rowing club on a local river. I'm 66.
