What a nice story of love! I'm thinking your girlfriend is VERY happy with how hard you worked. You both look fantastic and like a perfect couple. I think it's fantastic you met through MFP! Best wishes to you both!

I started reading your post, scrolled to the first pictures and said....Hmmmm...she put her after pictures first....I wonder why she didn't put the before pictures and follow with the after photos...... Then I kept scrolling. You looked fantastic before you even lost pound #1!!!!!!!!! You must really be working hard :smile:

Hey Lovelysnugs....I'm still here, just had to bow out for a bit. My basement flooded which left me behind with work. I ran yesterday for the first time in 2 weeks. I started back at W3 and did the whole thing...heart rate hit 227 though, which I wasn't happy about. My plan is to do W3 successfully 3x in a row, and then…

More dogs will make it to heaven than people...they tend to behave much better then people! (and before someone replies, yes, I know...by faith, not works)

I not only mow my lawn (takes an hour), but I mow the lawn next door now that the house is vacant (another hour). The neighbors think I'm crazy, but I don't want to live next to a dandelion patch and mowing is one of the best workouts! Especially when you edge and then sweep up the grass from the sidewalk. I wore the…

Powerball winner...not for me, but to have the chance to help so many people. And for me, people includes dogs :happy: The world would never see a bigger no-kill shelter than the one I'd establish!

Don't let them get you down - you're working hard and doing a great job. When I worked in a family practice office we followed several patients who had the surgery, didn't do any of the "right" things afterwards, stretched their stomachs back to the previous size, and now weigh more than ever before. Does the surgery give…

Actually, addictions can have what many refer to as a "psychological" component. More recent research shows that chemical reactions in the brain that are seen with addictions that don't have a physical component (like food, sex, gambling, etc) are identical to the brain patterns seen with physical addiction (like cocaine,…

I am SO impressed by how long some people have been consistently logging in - you folks are GREAT!!!

Isn't it funny how we can lug this extra weight around and not be aware of the work involved? I carry my old, arthritic dog up and down the steps and she's 40 pounds. I'm looking at losing a total of two of her, but I'm down 20# so far all total before and since MFP. I had to laugh at this post because I just ran up the…

There's a group called "Food Addicts In Recovery Anonymous" that is very effective. It's interesting when you go to their meetings, because there are so many thin people in the room. The program requires a lot of committment, but if you are addicted to overeating, these people can help. Here's the website in case you're…

Geez, that's fantastic! Great dedication on your part :) I started in Feb of 2011 and probably should stay on here for life - that way once I hit goal I can stay there forever and ever!
-
Agreed - you look great and have obviously worked very hard, but the more clean cut look is much better to enhance your style - keep up the fantastic job! PS...You're a real schmoozer complimenting all the ladies above:wink:

Glad you've found your way back! You can see quite a difference in your stomach, pecs, and arms! Nice work!

You know you're getting old and out of touch when you only recognize about 15% of these celebrity names....and I'm only 45....who'd of thought? I'm voting for Beyonce (and I even know who she is!)
-
I have to agree....sometimes I forget I have it on if I don't get to change clothes right away after running. I've been really happy with mine and I find the bra holds it in place without needing to make the strap too tight.
-
You are doing an awesome job! What a difference in your entire body :) You are one 'queen' who deserves a crown!!!!
-
My, are you ever a great advertisement for P90X - you look so fantastic! I bet your wife can't concentrate on anything else now! What a great testimony to how hard work pays off. Congrats on doing such a fantastic job and sticking with it!
-
Oh my gosh!!! This is certainly an inspiration for me, as I'm 5'9" also as figured 150 might be a good goal weight. Your wife was stunning before her weight loss, and now she's just incredibly WOW!!! How nice to have someone who's so caring of his wife snapping all these great pics! And by the way, you're looking great,…
-
Okay, tell us...who really is that in the first picture! <kidding> Words can't describe how amazing you look! I think even your cute little dog looks happier! Way to go on an amazing transformation!!!!
-
You look fantastic! An entirely different person, and boy, do you look happier! I know this sounds silly (weird) but I'm glad to see your chest still is doing well despite the weight loss. I have a similar build and hate to think of losing too much in that area! Congrats on doing so very well!
-
WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! What an amazing transformation you've completed! I think your aspirations and accomplishments are just as impressive as your weight loss, not to mention the sweet things your MFP friends have to say about what's on the inside! Talk about having the entire package put together! Thanks so…
-
What a nice story :) I'm so glad you've met someone who really cares about you. Now you can more easily care about yourself, which is when you'll feel like life is totally amazing. You've made so much progress already, I know you can make it to where you want to be. Do you know the best part? You're tackling it now while…

I have to say it one more time....you look so much younger!!! And your body change is fantastic, too :) Time to update that main profile pic to show off the fantastic new you!
-
:smile: Thanks very much! And a special thanks to all the nice people who make a nurse's job easier, like ward secretaries, aides/tech's, maintenance men who fix the broken stuff, and best of all.....compliant patients

I'd bet a big chunk of change that more than a few of us ladies clicked on his profile to see if he REALLY had a banana hammock pic in there ... he doesn't, but those Incredible Hulk pics are great! I have to vote with the folks who've said the pics are okay if they're showing off results rather than some other motive. I…

Everyone sounds like they're really doing well, and it's really nice to have some 'new' people working through this together. I've had a goofy running week. I'm on week 3 since 4-28. I have one run where I can do it all, then the next run I'm like a slug and can't even get through the first set of 3 minutes. Yesterday was…

Of course you can't :wink:

My grandmother had an unusual old-fashioned first name: Lavina - her nickname was "Wine" She married my grandfather who had an unusual German surname: Anger My mom was harrassed as a kid...."Are you Angry Arlene?"
