When I heard at AC that
tangowildheart was going to try to lose 100 lbs before next year's convention, I got to thinking about my own weight loss and went back through my old pictures to see just how far I'd come.
September 1995
June 2007
I'd say pretty far! I'm wearing a 3XL T-shirt in the top picture and a slim cut Large in the lower one. Starting weight was just under 300 lbs (my scale rolled over; 280 doubled as zero) and current weight is about 180.
Unfortunately I've lost a lot of hair as I've lost the extra pounds. I'd rather be reasonably healthy and bald than fat and bald, however. :-)
