Lost 70 pounds (About 25-30 to go) since July. Before/During

I started my lifestyle change in July. It finally hit me one day, and I realized how fat I was, and that something needed to change ASAP. I think the highest weight I let myself get to was around 270 (I'm 6'1, male, and 21.. so in other words, I was huge). I'm literally repulsed every time I look at my "before" picture, I don't know how I let myself get that big.
Anyways, for the past 5 months, I've been eating 2050 calories a day, 150-200g of protein, and hitting the gym 6 days a week. I know I've still got a long way to go before I'm happy with my body, but I'm thrilled with the progress I've made so far. I've lost a lil bit of fat, and put on some muscle (I had ZERO muscle before I started, with the exception of my legs, from having to lug around 270 lbs).
Edit: Pictures are too big apparently, so I'll leave em as links.

Hoping I can post a real Before/After by February/March.
