Nearly there - Now I want to inspire others...

[bigfatblues]

Hi,

My name is David Minehan and I decided that enough was enough. I have been overweight all my life and with a young son to think of decided at last to do something about it.

I did.

Not quite there yet but getting there.

I started 10 May 2008 at 211Kgs. As at 2 May 2010 about 120Kgs.

Need to lose another 20 to 30Kgs but that will happen. No doubt about it.

Now I want to inspire others to do the same.

No matter if you need to lose 5, 10 or 50Kgs.

YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU SET YOUR MIND TO.

Let's roll.

WOW! You look amazing!

I know I am able to lose weight (lost about 10kg since February), but I just had to set my mind to eating properly and exercising more regularly. I just have one thing in mind at this point in time and that's to look very nice in my Year 12 Graduation dress for the end of the year, and for the long term - to become fit enough for a Police Officer. If I get to 70kg I'll be very happy.

Would be great to know what you did to lose weight?

Good luck for the rest of the 20kg - 30kg! You can do it

Thanks and Good Luck to you too

I lost the weight by walking an hour a day and watching what I ate.

It's been two years and so far so good.

No secret other than that...

Take care and thanks again for the support...

So simple but so much more than that. Your mental stamina must just keep growing. I have finally realised that my mind is what keeps stopping me.
