You look great! If I'd seen these 2 pictures without context, I would think they are 2 different people.

295 at heaviest, 182 now. I'm usually 'over' on sugar. Good luck to any who has had success restricting their sugar, I'll stick to watching calories.

Your hard work clearly paid off!

Only 5 pounds away from the average model. That sounds so much more impressive then 'the meat an american eats a year"

I like it with pepper and tomato.

I couldn't agree more. And it's good to hear that from someone with amazing results. Also, you look stunning.

Nice work! You look good.

I got as bad as I did through lots of denial. Honesty and accountability is what's going to stop that from happening again.

My username is based on my D&D/WoD character. That's about as geeky as it gets.

Yup, I have 'cheat' meals/days. It can't all be egg whites and kale (especially if you're in it for the long haul). Everything is moderation. And I'm picky about my 'cheat' meals. I'll throw it away if I'm not wowed by the first bite.

Amazing! You look great.

Just eating the recommended calories and focusing on fruits and vegetables.

I never know what to say. Usually it ends up "I'm trying to lose weight" which is a silly thing to say when you HAVE lost a lot. I'll have to try "eating better" that sounds more accurate.

I could also use more people, feel free to add me :)

Very impressive results, you must have put a lot of work into it. Try not to be discouraged if the next 41 don't come off as fast.... those are really hard numbers to match.

I eat tons of fruit and have had lots of weight loss success. I don't count sugar from fruit.

1.) Lowered BP 2.) Slept just fine without the CPAP.

Feel free to add me. I'm also 30 and looking for inspiration/encouragement. Congrats on your success so far! Keep it up.

Hilarious and awesome! :smile:

I see a lot of fit older people at the gym or training for marathons. There's countless examples out there. They probably have worked harder then if they were 20 but that's a lot better then just giving up.

Not the first thing I would go for, but they are easy to carry around for hikes or long car rides.

WOW! All that in a year?

I had the same thing happen. It took me losing about 50 pounds and new clothes before the compliments/comments started flowing. I *felt* a whole lot better after only 8 pounds lost tho.

Daily, with an electronic scale. I really like the decimal point. If I lose even .1 pound, that feels very good to me.

I think PB is well worth the calories. Lots of protean. I stay away from hydrogenated oils tho.

3 pounds in your first week sounds great. It looks like you're eating right.
