wish I had seen this earlier. I had really let myself go last couple of years. The next thing I knew I got on the scale and it read 265!

I have never been near that much in my life.
Decided to go to a mostly raw food diet and in the last 3 weeks, I have dropped to 230. I have always been able to drop weight quickly when eating like this, but I had not been committed to staying healthy afterwards. I am committed now. I had been wearing 42 inch waist pants and got into a 38 inch pant today. That was a good feeling, but not enough. My goal is to really slim down this time and make sure I am exercising to maintain afterwards, along with not eating junk and fast food anymore (my curse). I am hoping to see 175-185 again. I am 6' 2".
Great idea this! We all need encouragement and motivation at times. Hope everyone else is doing well.
