After a couple of health issues this summer I gave up...
ice cream
potato chips
pop/soda
candy
liquor
and started using the elliptical and have lost 25 of the 60 pounds I want/need to lose (5'9"X250lbs).

I can now look down and see the toes of my shoes!!!!!!

It gets easier the more you lose! I'm down about 80 pounds now from about 18 months ago. I really need to go buy some new pants....8)

Yes my energy level is better.It is easier to tie my shoes and take the stairs.

We do an Official Belly Measurement and Weigh In every other Tuesday and today verified the 25lb loss and the OBM was 44 inches(down from 47 inches) and I was rewarded with a hug from one of my co-workers(yes a FEMALE).

My goal is 190lbs and to be able to see my belt buckle without a mirror.

Thanks for the support!!!!!!!

Wow Bart, 190! You will be one buff dude. Don't forget to work on those abs and pecs!

Isn't that a PITA when ya have to sit down and cross a leg to be able to tie your shoe?
