I have been away from BF for a bit and I am encouraged to see how many here are doing, Last November I was 250+ lbs and really out of shape. With advice and encouragement from the great people here, as well as motivation from family and a bright shiny new road bike in March I have hit a low of 178lbs in October and hold anywhere from 180-190 depending on the day(a little more after Christmas). For myself, the frame of mind is key. I need to get angry at myself and focus that energy at my goal (which is to hold between 170-180lbs). All of this is to say If a overweight truck driver with little time and poor diet options can do it than someone else can do it too.
