Haha, good for him. That's what friends are for.
Not nearly as awsome as losing 84lbs Darth! You must feel fantastic now.
You know I sort of
did know I was well over-weight but I'm fairly big, 6'2", and other people kept saying I was fine. Even when I'd just lost 10lb about 2 months ago and was weighed by the nurse at the docs she said "Quite heavy, but you're a big guy".
I knew that most of that "big" was pure
fat. Knew it for sure when my wife took a photo of me out and I wondered who the
fat old guy in the picture was.
I'd never been on a
diet before in my life, thought I was immune from getting overweight, and thought losing weight was going to be so complicated. Must put a lot of people off. With the help of these forums I found it was so simple, all I had to do was eat less - especially those cakes and pies that became a habit.
I've always been active, walk our dogs several miles every day, but getting up those hills was getting harder and harder. Now I can near jog up them without having to pretend I'm not gasping. After losing 84lbs you must feel you're floating. Fabulous effort. How did you do it?
