The Beard Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 After four months of lifestyle changes, I've broken the 200 lbs mark weighing in at 198! To preview, this is about the only picture I could find of me at my heaviest, around 240 lbs in August. I started eating better (about 80% paleo) and getting exercise on a regular basis. The first time I decided to take a picture to measure progress was around 225 lbs (sorry about poor picture quality, I have shaky hands) Now, after four months, I'm less that 200!!! The last time I weighed this much was when I was 16! Me at 198! This benchmark has me really excited about my fitness future because I'm not done yet! My current goal is to reach 195 lbs, followed by a focus from weight loss to body fat reduction (from whatever it is now to about 12%). 7 Quote Level 3 Bearded Assassin Str: 10 Dex: 9 Sta: 6 Con: 7 Wis: 4 Cha: 3 Current Challenge: Respawn Past Challenges: 1 2 3 Daily Battle Log Album "I'm not losing weight.

Epsilonx2 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 That's so awesome!! I'm happy to hear you've crossed that threshold. I'm closing in on it now and I can't even remember the last time my weight started with a 1. Super excited for both of us!

Fortunately I manage to remain cool and ignore such comments. Hahaha I like checking that thread every once in a while because of all the ridiculous things in it! The people around me are pretty supportive of my goals. Most of the annoying comments that I have to deal with are about the things that I don't eat/drink much of anymore, like french fries and beer ("but you love them!").

Guzzi Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Way to go guys! Awesome work @ Duality - that's bizarre man. The whole time I've been on this forum you've been one of the "fit healthy" guys. I never even considered that you'd started off at that kind of weight. It's funny how we make those kinds of assumptions, huh? Quote Make Life Rue The Day Turning back the clock Recipe book 14 Life is far too short to take seriously Link to comment
