There's 76lbs. less of me!

[Muenkel 0]

All my life, I have been a thin guy. At most I was 10lbs. overweight at times. Since my accident 5 years ago I was forced into a sedentary lifestyle and ballooned up to 234. I'm only 5'7" tall. I never wanted to admit it here as I was ashamed and disgusted with myself.

I finally took action and joined Weight Watchers this past Feb. 1st. I'm proud to say that I am now a very healthy 158.

I have to admit that at times WW was a bitch, but if you persevere; it really works.

I post this to encourage anyone out there who is struggling with extra weight. Losing weight is NOT impossible. I'm living proof.

This has been a public service announcement.
Best of health everyone,
Chris

We hope that you're feeling well.

Thanks pal. I made it through Thanksgiving without gaining, so I hope to have the same success during the Christmas Holidays. If I do gain, I now know how to take it off.

BTW, I've been feeling pretty good lately. Thanks for asking. I hope you and the Mrs. are doing well also.

Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber.

Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

That's wonderful! I hope that your new 158-lb lifestyle makes it reasonably easy to keep it that way...

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

as I look down at my buddah belly, I am renewed in the faith that it can be gone. What a true inspiration you are Mr! I have missed you, and I am so proud of you. I am going to do 50 jumping jacks to celebrate!-Suzanne

I've learned.... That being kind is more important than being
right.

Awesome! I had been wondering where you've been lately. Not seen you on here much. Glad you're back!

Here's to friends!

[PLFKING 4]

You're so full of shit, you could have done that with one good laxative.

Good going.....that shows some perseverance.......not that that's anything new from you.

Maybe Carrie will give you a tumble now (....'cause I'm sure that was the only thing holding her back.....).
