  • During pics, halfway to my goal.

    **2/28/07 EDIT: I am currently at 224 lbs. Now a pants size 36/38 depends on the brand. I also now where a shirt size XL. I am happy, but will be happier once I can get rid of all my excess skin. The lack of working out on my part has affected this I'm sure. I am starting to run with 1.5 lbs wrist weights and am doing crunches and some arm exercises with dumbells. Trying to tone up. I think I can lose about 20 lbs of skin off my stomach alone. What else should I do to tone up?



    I haven't been on here in quiet a while. Still doing the diet. I have been on it this time around since 1/13/06. I started as 317 lbs and now as of 8/26/06 I'm at 252 lbs. I am slowly working my way down. My goal is 200-220. I'll decide at 220 if I want to lose more.

    Some info. I am now a pants size 38-40. I was prev 44-46. Shirt size went from 4x to 2x. I am excited being able to shop at stores I could never have bought anything from before. My favorite store now is Old Navy.

    This is the only pic I can find of me before I ever went on the diet and I was around 345 to 350 here.


    I was around 320 here. This is from my 1st time on the diet. My highest weight was 345 lbs.


    These are the most recent pics.

          Thanks for the comments. I basically have been on extended Induction this whole time. Atleast I try to be. I intake 20 or less carbs a day. I have cheated on 2 trips though. Which ended up being around 10 days each time, a total of about 3 weeks. I never work out either. I tried once where I ran 5 nights in one week, but since I noticed it didn't make a difference in how I lost weight I gave up on that. I want to start again, but it's hard with my schedule and other reasons. I just watch what I eat.

          Again, thanks for the comments. I know if I can do this diet anyone can.

            Christ Dan, you look half the person in the first pic. Well done on ur progress so far.

            I think you should try and take up some form of exercise. I know you tried it before but you need to give it at least a month to see some difference but I promise you, you will be happy with the results! I go to the gym 4 times a week and I love what its doing to my body.
            I know that people have hetic schedules but if you put in 3 nights a week of an hour a time for a month, I promise you that you will lose more weight/tone up/increase ur muscle mass. Find something that you enjoy doing and stick at it for a month.
            Keep going with Ex Induction, this WOL is working wonders for you xx
