  • Wow. OP here. I don't know why I never checked up on this thread more than a week after I posted it, but I just did, and I'm frankly a bit alarmed at the direction the discussion went.

    in Down 73 lbs. in 3 months: Ops Shirtless and Shameless Comment by ameyls August 2012
  • I've always been about 10-15 pounds overweight; but in my early 30s, I put on an additional 20 pounds. I had always considered myself to be thick and curvy, but that extra 20 pounds put me over the edge to pudgy and flabby. Then one night, about two years ago, I was looking in a full length mirror, and I thought, "I hate…
