I did it! 100 lbs dead and buried!

Re: I did it! 100 lbs dead and buried!

I want to thank so many of you for suggesting that I turn off the Induction Hwy and get onto the OWL Freeway!!! I was a little worried about how slow things might move, but found it to be very smooth sailing and I continued to speed right along!!! In about 46 more pounds I will exit onto Pre-Maintenance Blvd. and will continue on Pre-Maintenance about 10 more. I am anxious to move into my home that is being currently being constructed on Maintenance Ln., but I know that I still have to follow the map in order to get there and I still have some travel time to go! I also know that sometimes the map can get confusing, so every now and again I will stop by and ask for directions!

Well done to you! What a great achievement.

And I just love your description of your 'journey' - it's brilliant I can picture the roads you describe and I'm sure it will help me and others to see the way ahead as we move along in this WOL. I love it! And I know you will carry on with your success because you have a great attitude and a positive picture of the 'travelling' ahead. Way to go!

Re: I did it! 100 lbs dead and buried!

Thanks! For those that requested some pictures, here are a couple that had been posted previously. The first one was a few years ago before I did Atkins the first time The shirt that I am wearing is a 5X shirt (I now wear an XL). The second one was at about the same weight as when I restarted (356) and those pants are size 56 and the shirt is a 22 neck (I now wear a 44 pant and have a 16.5 neck). The third one was taken onboard the Regent Navigator in December of 2006 and the shirt is a 3X, the pants are probably 52's, and I was somewhere around 315 at that point. The final two were taken the end of May, when I was somewhere in the mid 260's weight wise. Do you think I look just a little different? LOL

I love the way you describe your weight loss journey........that is truly how it is, isn't it? I bet people who haven't seen you in a while and then see you again can hardly recognize you.

Can't wait for me to join you in the century club!

You look incredible - not only are you "half the man you used to be" (he he - in a GOOD way). You look YEARS younger. Seriously. You look like your own son. Amazing. Way to go. That is just awesome. Well done to you.

Thanks all! I really appreciate your encouragement.

Kimberley, if I can do it anybody can! I would like to say how tough it was, but that isn't true. All it really took was trying to do things the right way and staying committed. The good news is, you really can live this way!
