So I've been promising this to my friends on my feed, and since today after my run I finally saw my goal weight of 190lbs on the scale, I decided it was time to post some before and after photos!
When I first started I was incredibly out of shape. 360 pounds, with no exercise and what felt at most times as no hope of ever improving. The one day I started walking. First two miles a day, then I started watching my calorie count with MFP. I consistently increased my exercise as my body adapted. To the point that I now strength train three times a week, run about 14 miles per week, and use the exercise bike at the gym for an hour a week.
Thank you My Fitness Pal, and all of my super supportive and inspiring friends!! All of your losses and your perseverance have helped to inspire me to achieve what I have... so far!
So here is the before!

Need to brag on my wife a little too! She's lost 80 pounds throughout the past year along with me!
