A guy who loves to spoil a lady

American Flag always a 10 : )

Thank you so much everyone for your kind words and all of the encouragement I've received throughout this journey. I'd be a fool to believe that my struggles with weight are over.....I realize that I will have to work hard my entire life to maintain a physique that I want. Otherwise, I know I will continue to yo-yo as I…

I lost 115 pounds since April 2012 and became a figure competitor this year. I give a lot of information about how I achieved my goals, on my Facebook page: https://facebook.com/DMInspiringTransformations I'm not advertising or selling anything. Just trying to reach out to others who may desire some inspiration, motivation…

Yes, and now I am slowing down quite a bit with my weight loss compared to how I had been losing. I am doing much more weight lifting now with a focus on building muscle and losing fat.......and much less emphasis on the losing weight part of it. So, my clothes sizes are still dropping at a nice pace.......but my weight is…

I started at the very end of April of this year, and have lost the weight in about 7 1/2 months. The one photo that shows me in April isn't showing unfortunately : ( The one of me on the bicycle is actually after about 2 1/2 months from when i started and I had already lost quite a bit of weight.

Today: Cybex leg press: 360 lbs - 4 sets x 8 reps.

You look phenomenal! Great job!

Way to go! So nice to to start feeling comfortable again!

Here goes: 1) Take responsibility for being fat and stop making excuses. Life is not perfect and neither are you. You just have to suck it up and do it. No one else can do it for you. 2) Get your vitamin D levels checked. Most likely you are deficient and this can contribute greatly to depression, fatigue, and aches. 3)…

You look gorgeous! What an amazing accomplishment- you should be so proud of yourself! By the way, I love your hair!!

Loved reading this post! Congrats on your success!

You look absolutely fabulous! Congratulations!

When I go out for Thai food, I avoid any of the curries because they have so much coconut milk in them. I love the larb gai salad- and usually order prawns on them as extra. These salads have ground chicken, mung bean noodles, lettuce, tomato, onions, and are mixed with a lime / cilantro / fish sauce / chile type of…

Thanks everyone!

Whoops....photo from early April didn't show up!

That's at the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. I try to go every year- it's incredibly beautiful with huge fields of vivid colors of tulips. I absolutely love it!

You look so amazing and I can't believe what a great deal you got on that dress! Congrats on your transformation!

I get 1200 daily calories without exercise so I know how challenging this can be! I really make an effort to add extra calories by exercising daily. Also, I would recommend adding vegetables to help fill you up and make you feel much less hungry. Some of my favorite low calorie vegetable "treats" are steamed artichokes…

Hi there! CW = 221 End of June Goal = 209 Non-weight goal: I want to complete a 50 mile bike ride this month

The most I can burn in an hour is about 750 calories and that is with very intense, non-stop cardio with tough intervals- My weight is currently 222, so unless someone is much heavier, I don't know how they could get to 1000 calories per hour.

Good luck! I know you can do it! :happy:

Golds Gym - In Bothell/Mill Creek and also Mukilteo. Love the classes!

Great job! You're an inspiration!

Such a great job! Congratulations on your successes!
