alovio 76 Posted April 23, 2013 Ok im give yiu guys some stats to start off let you know where I started. Oct 2011 I wieghed in at a whoping 458lbs . Started ckasses for surgery in dec 2011. My sugery date was april 20 2012 that day I weighed 391 lbs. Today I weighed myself I weighed in at 236lbs. Cant beleave it myself. I feel better today or actually this past year, better than I did throught my 30's and most of 20's. By the way im 43 years young and feeling younger by the day. I cant tell you ive followwd all rules cause I havent. I started off walking graduated to running and now I beed to get. Myself back on track. Feeling great comes with new found excitment for doing things. I've ever been a couch potatoe for last 15 years. I really feel good. Sometimes I miss the food' but I would trade it for anything. I went fro size 58 pants 6xl shirt.....to a size 36 pants 2x shirt. I even fit into some xl shirts. Of course there is excess skin but ill take trade off anyday. Eating wise I can eat pretty much anything just cant eat alot. Maybe 5 bites and im done. Well good luck everyone check out pic I posted big difference. 10 ReadySetFit, Butterthebean, LifetimeLoser and 7 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Butterthebean 8,146 Posted April 23, 2013 Hey man glad to see you back. I remember you telling me about how you started running and that helped inspire me to start running as well. You look terrific. Keep up the great work. I'm with you in the excess skin. I've got some, you can't lose 200 lbs and not have some....but it beats having the 200lbs of fat any day of the week. 2 rosehips and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
