ugh. seeing those side by side almost makes me ill. The funny thing is I pulled up the two pictures I posted yesterday and showed them side by side to my wife. She almost flipped. Her and I had talked about the crazy things that were happening to me but she said that until she saw them like that she never realized how big of a change it was.
I think she is proud to have a husband who looks like that.

Apparently I need to show her these too. Hell, even I am impressed with that change.
Thank Angela.

first picture was taken 5.8 at around 225.
second was taken 6.11 at around 220.
Hi sweetie!!!

You haven't been here in a while so I thought that I would give your thread a lil bump...

So it is more than a month later...how are you looking these days?

You looked pretty good when i saw you last but I didn't have these for comparison

Bah- fantastic could be a stretch....
good is possible though and all I am hoping for.

I have changed dramatically- I was looking through my file and found some old progress pics and saw a huge change.

What do you mean by 'pulled togaether'?

you are just supposed to know what i am thinking...

*sigh*

what i mean is that you could have just lost 45 pounds and done nothing and you would look like a less fat version of yourself. what you did instead, is not only lose weight, but change the physical composition of your body. you are so much more than a man who has simply lost weight. you have changed your appearance in a huge way. brian, you are not the same man you were when you started this in every single way possible but what i mean by 'pulled together' is that you have changed your physical appearance in more ways than just by losing weight.

the WT is what made the difference in your appearance, not just making you smaller, but making you look different.

not sure if this makes sense or not...hope it did.

You posted this back at the end of April.

This could not be further from the truth now, don't you agree?

I have told you this before, but the change in you, especially as of late is simply just amazing.

I am so proud of you Brian.
