Okay I'm going to try this. Read up on it on the technical board.

Before pic 405 pounds (could have been more, most scales could not weigh me). :noway:

This next one was taken last month. Down 210 pounds. Current weight 195. Still a ways to go...

I'll try to post some actual full body shots sometimes. I did then and I still do have a tendency to avoid full body shots. :smokin:

    It's been a long battle, and if I can help one person see that if "I can do they can do it" then I'm good. I can't wait to post the AFTER pics. LOL

    What an ispiration!!!!!!!

    Could you share what motivated you to make the move, and lose the first 200?

    You DO NOT have a long way to go! 195 is incredible, and while I don't know your goal weight, it looks like you only need to lose about 25% of what you have already lost! You are SO close!!!!!

    SO close! Keep going, and I can't wait to see the pictures of you at your goal weight!

    You've insired a lot of people today with those pics! Thanks for sharing.

    WOW!!! You look fantastic and WHAT an inspiration you are to me. I have over 200 pounds to lose to reach my goal and there are times I wonder if I'll ever be able to do it. It's seeing people that have accomplished it that make me realize it can be done. Thank you so much for posting this. I really needed the boost today:flowerforyou:
