Me, 35 lbs lighter (pics)

sure, i used the sticky in this forum, think it's the one with the "pics heavy" in the title. It tells you how to resize. I used photobucket so the option was in to resize to 550.

appreciate the kind comments, thanks all.

You have done amazing.
You should explain how you have done it to help others in same boat.

Thankyou.
I wish i had something different to bring to the table but here's what worked for me:
MFP set me on 1600 cals per day which i stuck to.
Having a cheat day once a week to keep away any bingeing during the week.
I ate back my exercise calories
i do cardio 4-5 days a week, mainly jogging and stationary cycle for 40mins to 1 hr per day. Running burnt off a lot of cals for me, i'd run 10k 3 times per week and burn around 800-1000 calories per session. Having a gps watch helped me set distance and pace goals which were fun to try and beat.
Homemade soup is a great way to lose weight, usually chunky vegetable with added fish or chicken.
Lots of green tea, around 6 cups per day and black coffee.
I love doing bicycle crunches for my abs and holding a plank position.
Hope this helps
