I weighed in over 300lbs in 12/2006. I don't know how far over because the scale stopped at 300 and refused to read any higher (cheap digital scale).
My goal is to get back down to 205lbs that I was at back in 1998, and then further.
I want to make my family proud. Return some of my self-respect that I lost when I realized I was a lazy sack of fat. I don't want to be "that guy" anymore.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 70 lb

Hey, Thundercat!
It's not too late to get it going if you haven't yet! I'm adding you to my list of friends and I will be staying on you. Get the diet under control first. You can do this!!!
I'll be checking in again soon! :D
Are you a fellow keto-er???? I absolutley LOVE keto, and have had AMAZING results doing it. Are you doing CKD or TKD??? Just curious, and always excited to find someone else who is doing keto as well.

Hi man, its a lifetime process... hope you are keeping that strength while growing the muscle mass and hopefully shedding some of the fat. I understand about the difficulty of balancing all three.
Hey bro...how is everything working out for you so far??
You are back to swimming or haven;t been able to go back to it since the incident?
Keep a brother posted!!!
