25KG gone so far...hopefully I can continue my new healthy life style...I wish all the same success It's good to breath again!

Hey, looking great, Dave!
Breathing is good lol

[Dave]

Thanks for your encouragement metalcharm...every little bit helps. I am happy with my results thus far & don't think I can afford to let it go again at my age. It really is about knowledge and discipline here on out. I normally tapper out from about this weight and hit a Plataea...BUT...I intend to cut into some of that muscle whilst burning some of that stubborn fat in order to get into the 70s with 77-76kg being my ultimate goal!
Whilst I am feeling trim by comparison to my starting weight as well as much stronger and agile...I do have a few sore joints and bones that could benefit from a further 5kg loss. I also believe adding to this a few years of Eating Right & eliminating ALL the bad foods will serve to medicate the resulting ailments that obesity and Bad Food Choices have left me with.

Had I kept smoking from 4 years ago...I would never of made it to this point...Now I look forward to a long and healthy life style without dieting and painful comebacks...still got a bit of slogging to go...but now instead of counting the things I am missing, I simply look forward to new challenges as I overcome each the obstacles that are so commonly thrown in our paths each day.

Thanks again metalcharm

Congrats in the giving up smoking too. Did you put much weight on after that?
I gave up nearly two years ago and while I was big before I certainly put on lots after that. I wasn't going to worry about the weight gain until I got the smoking under control and when I felt good with that is when I started on the weight department!

Don't you wonder just how you carried all teh extra weight around in the first place??
