Well Friends I have come a long way since I started dieting after the first of the year and here is a breakdown of my measurements since I started.

Weight: 260 Pounds when I started 226 now
Abdominal Measurement: 46 inches when I started 42 inches now
Body Fat Score: 29.5% when I started 25.26% now


My Goals
Weight: 195
Abdomnial Inches: 34
Body Fat: 10%

I think my goals are goals I feel I can reach. My target date to have this completed is 6-4-06. Its an odd date, but its my birthday and I want to have completed my transition by then. I am satisfied with the results I have made, but I have much more work to do. If anyone ever needs encouragement let me know. I have been encouraged by my own weight loss and would be willing to help anyone work towards their goals. The biggest change for me has been my diet and my reduction in calories and carbs. So if you have words of encouragement or need words of encouragement let me know.

Good luck.

The goals are in place and definitely achievable.

Nice job bro. I feel as if I am in the same boat as you but a little bit behind you (I started at 305 where you had 260). Either way great job.

WHERE ARE THE PICTURES?

I will be adding pictures within the next week or so.

Thats a 4% loss in bodyfat - good job!! Keep focussed on your goals and you'll get there no question

Here are my most current measurements

Weight 219
and I lost another 2.5% body fat and lost another 2 inches off my abdominal area since I last posted my measurements.

That's awesome!! Congrats and good luck with your goals!

Nicely done.

Take pride in all the hard work and effort you are putting in, it is paying off, I bet you feel 10 times better already.

Scott Free,

I have never felt this good in all my life. It makes me wonder why I ever let myself go and get fat, but I am used to the change in lifestyle. I am addicted to working out now. I find ways to excercise even when my life is busy. Thanks to everyone for the words of encouragement.
