I'm 6 months too!

Bluedog's post reminded me that I was six months out too (plus 1 day)!  Here's a few of my comparisons:
 
                    October '06                  Now
Weight        320lbs                          212lbs   (12 from "goal")
Waist           44 (under my belly)   34
Shirt              XXL                              L
Excerise       None                           2 mile walk/jog every weekday

I'd like to get to 200lbs even, but if I get there I get there.  As I am today, I've done greater than I expected.  I can remember being 300+ and telling myself if I could just get to 250lbs, I'd be happy.  Man how things have changed.  People are telling me I look "too thin".  I don't think so...I just think they're not used to seeing me as anything other than fat. 

With numbers like that you have to be PROUD!!!!! C'ya Rocky Top

congrads. you will be at goal before to long. Keep up the good work. Ken

Way to go, jamist. Amazing numbers in only 6 months. It's good to see you include exercise as one of your big changes in your life, As long as you exercise and eat  right, you'll be healthy rather than "just skinny" since getting healthy, rather than losing weight, is our ultimate goal, isn't it?

Keep up the great job!

Congrats to you. I weighed 320 as well this time last year and am now down to around 223 today. I get the same compliments on how "skinny" I am but I don't see it. I guess it takes a while for our minds to catch up with our bodies.

I guess I won't be happy with my body until I can look in the mirror after taking a shower and not see any muffin top! Maybe I'm being too hard on myself but I am excited to make it to my first big milestone - 100 pound loss. I am hoping to get there by the end of this month if not sooner.

That is great! I am ready to join you on the losers bench.
