Nearly a year in (pic heavy)
Once again, I don't seem to be able to edit my old posts, so I thought I'd add a new topic with my progress so far, as I'll probably forget when the one year mark comes around next month!. For those of you who don't know, I started my new lifestyle with MFP 340 days ago. Standing 5' 10" (1.8m) tall, I weighed 26 stone…

more progress pics (underwear shots)
I tried to update the original thread that I put up in the summer, but it doesn't want to play, so here's a new one. I'm 6 months into my new lifestyle and nearly two thirds of my way to goal. I've now lost a total of 44.1kg (97lb). I wouldn't have ever got this far without the support and inspiration I've received here on…

Progress Pics (underwear shots - not for the faint hearted!)
Today one of my friends here on MFP suggested that it was about time that I put up some more progress pics, so I'm setting up this thread so that I can update it now and then as I go on from here. When I started in May, I figured that I should take photos as I go along to log my progress, and me being the genius that I am…

First progress pics - 35lb lost
I started on MFP in May 2011, having basically been in denial for a good long while about the fact that I was constantly expanding. Since then, I have so far lost about 35lb, but I hadn't really noticed much of a visible difference until today when I decided to try on an awesome t-shirt that my wife bought me for…

First stone gone and an NSV!
I've been using MFP for three weeks so far and I'm loving it. This week I've had a bit of a double victory - I did a sneaky mid-week weigh in yesterday, and I have now lost 15lb - one stone down, nine and a bit to go! Also, I had a job interview in on Wednesday and put a suit and tie on for the first time in weeks (see pic…

BMI and individuals
I've just checked the BMI calculator in tools, and according to that, if I eventually reach my target weight of 100kg (220lb) I will still be in the obese range. To get to that point, I will need to lose 65.5kg (144lb), which is 40% of my body weight. When I was 18 I weighed 220lb, I had a 36" waist and a 44" chest, and I…

Doing it properly this time (UK)
Morning all! I'm Pete, I'm 31 and I live in Coventry in the UK. I've been a big bloke all my life, reaching what I thought would be my peak when I was 17 and weighed 18.5st (259lb). At that point I decided to do something about it and I managed to lose 4.5st (63lb) through purely exercise. However, at my thinnest I don't…
