Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement. It's what keeps me positive in my ongoing journey to be healthy!! :)

@imcharmed thanks for the kind words. I truly appreciate that. The most important thing I learned was portion control and proper serving size. Read those labels, 1 can, bag, or container, does not mean it's one serving. That was kind of the way I use to think. My food scale is my most used tool, by far.

Awesome story!! Way to inspire!!

I just went down to a size 36 inch waist in jeans, I started at 54 inches, and I was also featured in a local amusement park's blog about my weight loss. That's so cool!! http://www.holidayworld.com/holiblog/2016/01/11/weigh-to-go-shane/

Just hit 700 miles walked and logged with Map My Fitness. :)

Thank you all for the awesome comments. They go a long way!! :)

Started at 388 now at 245. 143 pounds lost since 6/11/15 and feeling great!! Lots of walking and eating right!!

Awesome!!

The loose skin isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I have very little under my biceps which will be filled once I start working with some weights. I have some on my stomach but not too bad. The worst is the upper inside of my thighs because my legs were so big. Even they are starting to look better than they did.

Thanks for all the great comments. It's that support that keeps me going!! Last Thursday when I weighed, I was at 133.3 pounds lost. My next "Weigh Day" is tomorrow!!

Lots of walking and eating right is how I did it. My motivation comes from just wanting to not be limited on what I can do. I also have an amazing support group at work, home, and on social media. They help keep me going!!

My legs were hurting so bad i finally said "ENOUGH!" I felt trapped inside my body because I could not do things that I wanted to do because of my weight. The next day I downloaded a calorie count app and started walking. Just little walks at first. I also cut out all of the sweets, junk food and fast food and started to…

I started on June 11th 2015, but I'm not done yet though!! I've gotten down to 254.7 since this photo.
