    Before and During down about 30 lbs

    I finally got around to posting some before and during pics. After about 15 more pounds I will have some true "after" pics.



    This is me in August 2006 waiting to take the cable car to Sugarloaf mountain in Rio De Janiero. I'm about 230 pounds here.



    Disneyworld in May 2008, 235.



    Here's me at my heaviest, a very bloated 240 and a picture from last Saturday at 210. I'll get some more pics soon and update when I'm in wonderland. I have plenty of fat pics to put side by side, I need more skinny ones .



    Here's why I'm doing this.

            Thanks Carole, I have noticed my ears have gotten huge! I guess the fat cheeks kinda balanced those puppies out some. One good gust and I'm a hang-glider.

                  Moved the Tylenol posts to the Chit Chat forum, in case anyone was interested. They're more appropriate there, I reckon.

                          Couple more weeks with the home gym and we might see some more skin. I left my speedo in the 80's though. You need to get yourself in gear, I've been hovering between 198/199 waiting on you. Julie and Vickie are closing in fast. They just both past the 209 curse.

                          Is that 201 in your sig new? A would swear I thought I saw 204 there last night. Congrats to you too!
