Ive been on a journey of a lifetime going from 436 to as of last week 260 on the dot, and I'm not done yet. I started november 2007 and hopefully november 2009 I will be close to my goal, whatever that is. When people ask me what it feels like its really hard for me to describe because I have been big or obese my whole life, but I am happy to tell them the first thing that pops in my head. I want everyone to know that weight loss is something that everyone can do and the power is in you even if you don't know it.
175 pounds gone and counting

Congrats!
What made you start? How did you do it?

Well thanks. What made me start was that I was misrable and fed up with feeling that way. My wife planted the seed that I could do it so we started Weight Watchers together. Once you loose a little you realise "I can do this" ! At about 70 pounds down I started going to the gym against what my brain was telling me and now I like working out. I just need to weight train more and fill out some of my baggy skin. All in all I would like to figure out a way to help others loose weight but I have not figured out the best avenue. Thanks for the kind words everybody!

Great work! You've had some amazing results...congratulations and good luck with the rest of the journey.
well done and keep up the great work!
I don't post on the weight watcher forums but I stilll do weight watchers. As for weight lifting I just really started to get serious about it and I won't lie I feel like I'm all over the place but I'm working on getting a routine together.
I think i'd like to be 200 210 but more muscle mass, I've lost a lot of mass wich is were the weight lifting comes in. Any suggestions on weight training would be greatly apreciated. Wish me luck I'm entering in the weight watchers succes story contest, my leader has been on me to enter.
