Wow, your appearance has me in awe! π The effort invested is clearly visible, and it's working out great π―
Began at 330 pounds at age 51, wearing XXXL and heading for 4XL with size 42 pants, and everything hurt constantly. Felt weak and always hunted for a couch whenever I went anywhere. This morning I hit 247 with 47 pounds still to go. XXL shirts are now loose on me and 38 waist pants feel baggy; another 20 pounds should get me to 36. I took over fitness sessions at the senior buildings where I work and now run strength and balance twice a week, bands and balls twice a week, plus an extra strength and stretch class three times a week, all well attended. That makes seven classes weekly on top of my own home workouts. People treat me much better and actually notice me, unlike when I was heavy and got overlooked. Picked up an electric bike and ride it everywhere unless it's too cold or rainy, with plans to commute on it once spring arrives. Feeling incredible lately. Used to think my good years were behind me but now see they are just starting. All of this happened in less than six months so far. Weighed in 83 pounds lighter this morning.
