All of these events took place in 1977 which was the last time I looked down at a scale and saw a weight of 250 or less.
I went in for my weigh in today and as of today, I have lost 312 pounds. I have not been at 250 or under since I was 17 years old.... and that has been a few years now.
Charles -- YIPPEE!!!!!! That is fantastic -- and what a trip back in time!
Not only are you an inspiration with your weight loss, but I just love your positive attitude. I know from past posts that your life is so different now than before and I am so so happy for you!!!!!!!!!!

312 gone - 30 more to go.
Charles, you are truly an inspiration to many, many of us. Way to go!!!! Keep it up!!!
Looking at your before, during and after pictures, you not only have lost weight, but it looks like you're 20 years younger as well!
Charles I love the way your pictured yourself in time. It's like turning back time. I was only 28 years old then and that seems like an eternity ago.
Awesome!
Thanks everyone! I am feeling great and not carrying around all of that weight sure makes me feel younger. LOL not sure if I look any younger or not. So many people have helped me - reading stories of others - getting ideas on good foods or tips on how to deal with emotional eating. I am a big "pay it forward" believer so anything I can ever do to help anyone - I want to do it.
