I started my diet when I seen these pictures of myself on vacation with my family. I didn't realize how big I had gotten and was quite disgusted with myself. That was back at the end of March. Soon after I started my diet a friend of my wife told me about MFP and I figured it couldn't hurt to give it a try. She still likes to make fun of me about how anal I am about counting my calories and making sure I get some form of exercise in almost every day. Here are the results of my persistence, which she is also very proud of me.

What differences do you all see?

The first set of pictures (beach and train) are from the weekend of 18 Mar. (194 lbs)
The second set of pictures were taken about thirty minutes ago today (31 May). (170lbs)
I am wearing the same shorts in both pictures.

    Thank you everyone. I have resized the pictures to try to get them to not cut me in half and also not take up the whole page. Will create a new post soon with them.
