So at the start of 2010, my wife and I decided to change our lives to be healthier. First off let me say she has been a great support to me and has lost 128 lbs and looks hot. Today i got on the scale and it read 242...which means I have lost 243 lbs. I think back to when I started and thought losing this weight would be unreal. I am not going to bs you,it does take a major life committment and having support like my wife gives me makes a major difference. I took it one day at a time and to see where I am today makes me very proud. Check out my profile for pics and if you need support...add me!

    Congratulations!! To both you and your wife!
  • You guys are awesome and to have been blessed with each other's support is truly amazing. I am so glad to have you as a supportive friend on my own personal journey here.

    My husband and I started our journey last year, first in April just watching what we ate and walking. At that time, I was only able to walk about 1/4 of a mile before I tired out. Then last September, we started adding more exercise and taking away things like bad sugars and bad carbs. By the beginning of 2011, we had lost a combined total of 72 pounds.

    We kind of fell of the wagon with eating right and went back to convenience, then this August we made a decision to try again but this time, not give up even if we had moments of giving in. And the best part was that we were going to push each other :) This time, we have lost a combined 31 pounds. Granted we do have days where we don't do the best, but overall it is a lifestyle change and something that you do the rest of your life. We are still working the kinks out, but I am grateful for my chance at a healthier, happier life.
  • Such an incredible story! Your commitment to see this through and your long-term success is truly inspirational! I just whisked off a FR to you; you're precisely the kind of friend I could use in my corner! Congratulations to you and your good wife! :)
  • Congratulations man
  • You look amazing, well done!!!!!!!!

    You two are fabulous!! I know the feeling of having lost almost half your body weight - then I slipped and now I'm back on my way down again. Sending you a friend request - I'd like to know more about how you did it. You're an inspiration!
