Hello all,
I am Brian, and I started my journey into the world of losing weight, and bettering myself almost 5 months ago. When I began, I weighed in at 280 pounds. I am currently 161.8, and I'm not finished. I just wanted to share a little bit of this success, because it's truly amazing what you can do when you set it in stone. This was certainly something that started out as a decision, which slowly turned into a commitment, and overtime, that became dedication. Now, I call it a Lifestyle. In my books, exercising is a full time job. Personally, if you work out hard enough everyday, I don't care what you eat. I consumed a lunch of 800 calories today, and you know what I did after? I went and burnt 1400 calories. You eat what you want, you just watch portion size, and make sure that you get a healthy workout in after. I am Brian, and this is my story so far. I hope this might give you a little motivation. Have a great day everyone!

Thank you for sharing your continued success with us. The thing that really stood out to me as the reason for your success is this ...... "started out as a decision, which slowly turned into a commitment, and overtime, that became dedication. Now, I call it a Lifestyle" this is the reason why you will keep your weight off and continue with your healthy life - because you have made it not a diet but a lifestyle. This is something that you share with all the successful people I have come to know on and off MFP. Well done.
