The bottom line is I wore this out tonight and did not feel like a sausage stuffed into the casing..
Big thing here, big thing....

Yay me.....
Yay you, B! You look great!

Thaks Ali

It has actually been the best feeling overall. The only time I actually see progress is when I wear something that either clearly did not fit before or fit before and is now huge.
The only issue is I am going to have to buy all new clothes soon- certainly before winter...

Normally he gets his ass kicked by insecure Brian..
Not really too much of a contest usually.

OK.
I was meesing around with my old laptop and found several pictures of me. Most telling was the one I found from this last Christmas.
This picture is of me at my heaviest- around 260-270, not 100% sure.

The real odd thing is that I did not feel anywhere near as huge as I look in this picture. I have also posted one from today for a true comparison.
I do not know if looking at the old one makes me feel better about how I am now or depresses the shit out of me for how I was 5 months ago...

ok. Enjoy- purge if need be.

It looks so different. You do need to get some better fitting shirts for the today shots, though. It looks like that one is just hanging off you. (That's a good thing)

Unfortunately most of my shirts and pants are way too big now. The problem is I do not want to have to buy all new crap 2 or 3 times. I need to try to stretch the ones I have out until I feel i am at the size I want to be.
Losing is great but when you have a closet of crap too big for you and cannot really get more right now it sucks.
I will take it though- better than the alternative.

Thanks Trops.

Have you thought about checking out Goodwill? I did that and got some things totally on the cheap - made for good inbetween wear...

You look great dear, really
