Just thought I would update everyone, I hit 100lbs gone this weekend.

I really can't thank everyone who responded to this thread enough, your kindness is totally overwhelming.
I truly appreciate it.
Be safe, keep after it!

Wow! That is an amazing story. I'm sure it was full of ups and downs to get to this point. Talk about life changing though, I am seriously impressed!

Great job! I am now getting serious about dropping some lbs and being a much healthier person overall too. In some ways, hunting (or my motivation to be able to hunt) is a serious life saver. I am only 5'7" and had gotten upwards of 220 lbs after an out of town 9 week training course for my work. I haven't taken it very serious, but slowly dropped down to 205-210 and could mostly function. Last year, I began mountain biking and found that I loved it. Big benefit was that I felt better and had dropped some weight. But I still don't eat the way I need to and gained some weight again during this long miserable winter. This past week, I recommitted myself to be much more careful about what I put in my mouth. Still need a lot of work, but the resolve is much more intense now. With the weather turning, I can get on my bike outside and I have small gym in my basement. I have found that having someone to help motivate me is a key as well. My hunting buddy and I have committed to hold each other accountable and my 18 year old son (a body building stud of a young man) has committed to helping me learn how to do things the right way. I look forward to seeing how 2017 is for this almost 46 year old man.

It's been a few years since the original post. Would be interested to see the progress over the last few years. Any updates?

Good effort!! I am 6' and had to make a change when I hit 270lbs. Kuiu didn't make any bigger sizes!. Your change is pretty incredible! I really don't care what I weigh but I do need to be able to hunt the mountains still! Take care.
