Default Great to meet you all! :)

Greetings!, I'm Mark, from PA 19 years old in college. I have been pretty big for most of my life so far I'm 6'2" with a large frame too, and I have reached a milestone in my weight loss (see photo below). I have 32 pounds of fat to go. I've been building muscle too taking whey protein, and using free weights and a bowflex. Nice to meet you all!!



I hope to gain a lot more muscle, I've been reading "Burn the fat, Feed the Muscle" by Tom Venuto. Absolutely an amazing book! I highly recommend it, you will learn so much and become enlightened I promise

I WILL be 215 pounds by October 22nd (my 20th birthday), so look out for a new picture then . I also got a date , yeah not too many girls liked me when I was over 300 pounds, sad but true haha

Hi MARK and . . . you are definitely heading in the right direction, boyyo and looking really good . . . I'd be asking you out (if I was about 45 years younger ). Anyway, glad to have you joining us.

Oh, Mark, I'm so happy for you! You look great!! I agree with Spoz... you looked cute back then, too. I'll bet you're much more confident than you used to be. Keep up the good work, and welcome to the forum!

Heya! I'm also at University and never really got many people interested in me at my high weight...annoying huh?! But it may be because we are more confident now?
You're so cute (you were cute before too!) and well done on your progress before
