One Year Pics, Profile and Thanks!

Hi Ron, What a great wish to never forget where we came from (obesity). And you are so right about nothing tasting as good as thin feels. My wife and I just got home from celebrating my first year with a meal out at a good Italian restaurant. Guess what I had? A side order of grilled chicken and a side of mashed potatoes. Guess what I ate? Half of a delicious chicken breast and about a third of a portion of potatoes. And it was perfect. Who'd a thunk it? Thanks for the good thoughts.

Doug -  Man great job!!!  So proud of you brother.  Keep up the good work.  I hope also to be down from a 60 to 42 waist in 1 year!!! I love the muscle tone also - whats your program - anabolic roids??  Had a great laugh.... Cant wait to hear about the last 30lbs gone!!

Sean, Considering that I'm a 61-year old codger with a codger's metabolism, I bet you go from 60 to 42 in less than a year! But however long it takes doesn't really matter once we start to change. Like the big guns in the workout photo, do you? Well, my secret workout potion just might be for sale . . . The way things are going, it may take almost as long to drop the last 30 as it took to drop 120+. We'll see. Thanks for the post.

Doug, Great job!  What a wonderful accomplishment. I enjoyed your photos and reading your story.

Thanks, Jim. It's good hearing from you.

congrats Doug - sounds like you're doing amazing, and the pics looks great...........   don't you just feel like you're floating around without all that extra weight???   keep up the hard work man. Chuck

Hey Chuck, I do feel like I'm floating around sometimes. Hope that's due to less weight and not more hot air! Thanks for the congrats.

Thanks cb, I'm glad I came out of hiding, too. You're one of the guys whose posts gave the impetus to do so.
