edited October 3 in Success Stories
So, I said that I never wanted to post my before pics until I reached my goal weight of 240. Well, I'm bored so I'm going to. First pic was June 6th, 2011 at 334 lbs. Second pic is October 8th, 2011 at 277 lbs.

The "Mickey Mouse" pattern shaved out of my chest in the first pic is from where I had to have an EKG because I was having chest pain. Although I am not nearly happy with my second shot, at least some of the muscles in my upper chest and shoulders are beginning to claw their way out of fat prison. Also, my huge double chin is now just a big double chin....so yay!

I also celebrated by shaving off my barbarian beard for a cool Wyatt Earp Mustache.

    You are half the size! I can see your ears now behind your cheeks, and you have a neck! EKG for chest pain and that big belly is no joke. You are changing your life around. Please keep it up. Looking like a new you! I'll bet none of your clothes fit!

    Great progress! You should be very proud of your success thus far!! I'm glad you enlightened us on the chest hair. The first thing that came to mind was the body waxing scene in "40 Year Old Virgin."

    Keep up the awesome work!!

    Big difference... How's the chest pain?

    The chest pain was never diagnosed and never returned. I'm guessing it was a Ho-Ho caught in my sternum area.
