Well. I stumbed across some old photos of myself and couldnt believe how big i used to be so i thought i would show you all the progress i have made so far. Im still in shock at how fat i used to be. thank god i made the decision to change!!
I still have a bit to go so the current photos will hopefully change in the future, not a lot but a bit.....

<<god looks so photoshopped!! haha (its not)


Me at 12 and a half stone




I hadnt really realised how far I had come until i dredged up these photos from the past! For anyone doubtful on whether to continue dieting, please do, it will result in positive change!

Photos are terrible things! But they can be helpful in seeing how far one has come. Can't wait to see yours--I don't have any, alas.

Moved up there ^^

wow great job! you can really tell a difference in your face, you've got an very attractive jawline, keep up the good work!

I just uploaded my old photos!!! Link in my signature!!

thank u! Looking at the difference there makes me happy. So glad i didnt quit. All those times i stopped myself from eating badly paid off!

I think you're a really cute dude--both before AND now! You must be so glad you lost those couple of stone, though!

Jay

Oh My God . What A Difference . It Must Feel Great! I Cant Wait To Be Able To Post Something Like That . . . . It Wasnt Even My Accomplishment And Im Proud.

I was hideous before! I dunno how i looked in the mirror. I feel so much better now!! Erm yeah thank god i lost that couple of stone. Just another stone and a half and that should be it...

Great job Mark!

15st? How much have you lost in actual pounds?

You look TERRIFIC! You look so fit!

I agree with JayEll...photos show us how far we have come. I had not really even noticed my weight loss until I saw some photos of myself from about a year ago.

Wow, Mark!!! Way to go!! You look amazingly different! You should be very proud - it must've been a lot of hard work!

Would you mind sharing how you lost the weight -- I mean, besides the obvious answer of eating less, do you have any tips to share from your success?

Also, do you know how many American pounds you lost?

You look wonderful - toned and much happier in the 2nd lot of pics.

1 stone = 14 pounds

Jay

Err, im not sure about american pounds....

Well, u know, i really dont know how i lost the weight....I used to eat a LOT! I mean overeating constantly. every day so i just started cutting out all the sweets and cakes and snacking etc. Over time, it just fell off..it came off rather quickly if i remember it well....I didnt even do that much exercise to be honest, just mild walking, to the bus stop and around school....I didnt go out of my way to exercise, put it that way. I remember the first time i stood on the scales and saw my weight lower than it had been before, i was so amazed..

Now, i am still eating healthily and the weight is coming off, not as fast as before, but it is moving
