    Before - a somber realization

    Here are a few before pictures from this year for me. I'm 350+ and the biggest I've ever been. I'm pretty disappointed in myself and the condition I've let myself get to. I'm ready for a change.

    Obviously I'm on the left:

    I hope to be able to update this thread with thinner pictures in a few months.

      I can almost guarantee you that you will. If I can do this anyone can!

      Good luck and make sure you do a clean induction. That will help a LOT.

              Hi Shane! Nice tie! If you follow the plan as written you'll be a thin dude before you know it. Men seem to have very fast results losing weight AND if you don't waver from your Atkins eating + add in exercise then it doesn't take long to notice some really dramatic results.

              Good luck and don't hesitate to post any questions.
