  • Still got a long way to go, but...

    So, people, this is me at 138 kilos (274 pounds)

    http://briefcase.pathfinder.gr/download/567070


    and this is me, so far, at 107 kilos (215 pounds)

    http://briefcase.pathfinder.gr/download/567071


    ...again, don't mind the tasteless background, gonna use my prize money to buy them something really nice! Hahhahaa

    Also, and I know this is silly, but here is the greek version of the Atkins Diet book (you may notice similarities). Tough thing is, althought "bad carbs" are not that important in european and greek cuisine, low carb products (apart from traditional dishes) are hard to find... Still, managed to change lots of moms recipies into Atkins greek dishes! Care for some low carb moussaka and souvlaki?

    ...60 pounds down, 60 more to go. I'm soooooo winning that 100 euros.

    With low carb love from Athens

                              Oooooh, thank you all guys. You are really making me blush!
                              Note that the haircut DID helped, turns out I needed that badly!!! Hhahahahaa
                              I'm quite sure I have a pic that I look even bigger and have head-shots also...
                              Well, I'll try and find all of it and repost it with some new when I am less than 100 kilos (200 pounds).
                              Thanks again people
