Here is me at about 235. I started eating healthy and exercising two years ago. I was at least 400lbs back then, I couldn't even weigh myself. I want to get down to around 180 then bulk back up to about 200lbs in time.

damn that's impressive! 400 lbs is like me x 2 and then some;)

Here is one i found on my computer. I was probably around 300 here.

wow... thats pretty impressive! how did you lose the weight? What did you change & do different?

That sure is impressive! You can tell just from looking at your face what a huge amount of weight you've lost! Great job. :tu:

Wow, I am also very impressed.....How did you go about losing all that weight? :tucool:

You look like a whole new person! I bet you feel like one too.
:claplow:

Wow - just wow. I kept scrolling up and down looking at the two pictures because they look so different. I mean, if I saw the old you on the street, and then the new you came up later, I wouldn't know. Hell - even if we were best friends I probably wouldn't have noticed you after the change. Amazing results, man! Keep it up!

Some of my family up north didn't know who i was when I went up for a wedding and was greeting them. It was funny.


What I did to lose weight was started eating alot less calories. For the first few months it was around 2200 a day, then months later 2000, now its 1800. Plus alot of exercise. I am trying to save up for a home gym like johns to add muscle back on, i'm sure I lost a whole lot along the way.

You made a huge change... You must feel great now!!!

Good luck on the rest of the weight loss.

That is really impressive. I thought I could surpirse people when I lost 120 lbs. But you shure knocked me down. Keep up the great work and scan some good picutres so there could be even more motivation for other people to workout.
Way to go. :claplow:

Update: I found my fatest picture I took when I first started my diet. Then there is a recent one But it came out really bad. I'll keep updating every other month or so. Sorry about the underpants :o

You are the MAN buddy. I have no words, YOU ARE THE MAN. Congradulations!!!!! :claplow: :tu:
This is a great motivation for me to go to gym tonight (I wanted to skip it).

God damn....

YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!

:claplow: :claplow: What you've done is just fabulous! :tucool: Congratulations!!

Thanks everyone for the compliments. :D

Wow... you've done an amazing job. You look great! The compliments are well deserved! What does your diet/exercise plan look like? How did you do it?!?

That is awesome. No wonder your relatives didn't recognize you at the wedding. Great job!

holy shnikes!!! awsome transformation :tucool:

Wow, I just looked at the updated photo...you are amazing! You have come so far. What motivation you must have! Keep it up...your doing awesome :claplow:

Mandi

I was sitting here feeling sorry for myself cause I am having a heck of a time losing the last 10-15lbs I've got when I saw your pix. What an incredible job! It is only by slowly, steadily working towards our goals that we make progress...no matter how far we are! It's never easy. Thank you for that reminder! I'm very impressed! :bow: You da man!!

Danielle

I took a second look at your thread today, sitting all by myself in my computer room - I am not kidding, but I said out loud "OH MY GOD"

That's insane, man...insane!

:bow:

You are amazing, and quite an inspiration. You have my utmost respect. Thanks for posting your pictures.

You should post your diet and training routines, too!

It's been said before, but it can't be said enough. You are the man!

Congratulations, your transformation is amazing :tu: ...Definitely very motivating.

DAMN! Great work!

That is totally beyond impressive!!! Way to go!

:bow:

-CP

Awesome Dude :tucool:

U r the best like Johstone and Blackbeauty... :bow:

Oh...my...God!!! Way to go!! Very, very, VERY impressive transformation!! DUDE...you've GOT to send in your photos to Xenadrine and Hydroxycut! They'll go nuts (I mean that literally) and shower you with billions of dollars to be their weight loss guru!

Damn...and here I was thinking losing the next (last) 40 lbs. is hard. Shame on me!! Time to hit my nutrition, cardio, and weight workouts like I never have before.

Dude...you ARE the MAN!! :tucool:

EDIT: Oh, and I'm never having a cheat day again. Only cheat meals from now on! I've gotta get down to 165 by June 15th!! :claphigh:

:bow:
i have no words, incredible.

Here's me feeling a little sorry for myself with 40lbs to lose. Bro, without you saying a thing I've learned one of the most valuable lessons possible. There is ALWAYS someone who is gonna work harder than you to get to their goal.

Makes me wanna go to the gym now, and it's 12.20am!

As pretty much everyone else in here has mentioned, you are THE man.

Still flippin unbelievable.

Thanks again all. I still have around 50lbs I need to drop off. It's been a rough journey but I am getting close to my goal and it has been worth all the struggles. I just can't wait to one day post a "final" pic when I reach my goal weight. It's gonna be sweet! I always get a good laugh when I look back at my fat pictures, especially cause I am always making a stupid face in them, but its great motivation to see how much I've changed and helps keep me on track.

Excellent work man, congrats so far and I hope you keep it up, you must be really dedicated.

:tucool:

WHOAA...........THATS JUST AMAZING.... :bow: :bow: .....Good job Zef :tucool:

Zef I was wondering did/do you suffer from GERD< IBS<Gastritris? If so how is it now? I was doing fairly well last 6 months as I near 100lb lost hopefully next week but got nailed hard 4 days ago which really upsetting me. So I was just wondering what to expect if weight loss really helps that much and just when it kicks in. I just wish it let me continue loss weight! It forced me into starvation mode, and is messing with exercise just name few things and I following diet, rules to a T, besides being on two doses of 40mg of Nexium a day last year and half P

Congrats on your amazing victory :)

Zef,

You've done something that's absolutely spectacular! I think it's terrific you're willing to share your story with everyone on the net. I just know you will be a source of inspiration for many others who wrongly believe they can't loose the weight!

Definately looking forward to the day you post that picture of at your goal weight!

God !! I cant really believe my eyes when I see you before and after pics !!!

Well Done !! :tucool:

Awesome job... how impressive!

Holy cr#¤.. very very impressive, keep up the good work!

Amazing.

The way you're going you'll be ripped on no time! :tucool:

I've just shown your pictures to my sister - it's given her a lot of motiviation to stick with her new excercise routine. Great job man :tu:
