Normally I like to reply to each individual who took the time to reply to me, but that tends to get to be a bit much.. So let me start off by saying thank you to everyone who took the time to reply to my post, I appreciate the kind words and encouragement.
I know that I shouldn't compare myself to others, as it is comparing apples to oranges. But I'm only human, and sometimes I wonder what might have been if I took a different option. But 64 lbs total is nothing to complain about, and I'm very happy with my results so far.
I actually am looking forward to going back to the gym tomorrow morning. I went with a woman from work today, and it was a nice time having someone to go with. I joined Planet Fitness, and it was a totally different experience then what I had previously. Years ago I was going to join Ballys, but there was nothing but big buff bodybuilders there, and I felt totally out of place. But PF was nothing like that. Now I guess I just need to try to figure out the best workout to do everytime that I go. This morning I did 1.5 miles on the treadmill and then 4.5 miles on the bike, but I know that I will eventually need to start adding some light weightlifting as well. I'm pretty sure that I saw an exercise/working out forum on this site, so I guess I will have to try to find that again to get some good ideas.
Anyways, thanks again.

Here are a few newer pics of me from December. As you can see, I still have a looooooooong way to go, but I'll get there eventually!
