i lost over 100lbs
i would like to let you know i have reached my goal weight of 180lbs as of august of 2004 i have been wanting to post this but did not have the time to. when i joined SB.com i was 298lbs i did this through a weight loss program called TOPS(taking off pounds sensibly) i am 16years old and this was the hardest thing i ever had to do. i went from a 48 waist to a 36
thank you

Canal Rat,
I do not know how to give you the propper applause you deserve. All I can say is dam good job.
As hard as it is, be grateful that you have done this now, and stick with it.
I am 38 and five days ago I was put on a diet that will drastically change my life. I am starting at 303 pounds.

if any of you want to join TOPS go to www.tops.org and search for a chapter near you. i go to the tops chapter in carver its $20 to join and $5 a month. i am keeping it off very well i lift weights every other day this also helps me with the task of hauling those 50lbers up the rocks in the spring
thank you all for your support

Way to go!!! I lost 80 lbs over a year ago, losing that much weight is a life changing event. The hardest part is still ahead. Force yourself to keep those good habits you developed and work on keeping it off. Congrats Again.

With that kind of self-discipline and determination, you'll do great things -
There just may be a 50 in your future - perserverance pays!

that's incredible c.r., congrats. i'd like to lose "only" 20 lbs. but i keep putting off starting because i know how difficult that is going to be. on a side note, did you know ryan silvia? he was the 17 year old from plymouth who was killed in a car accident on dec. 5. he is my brother. if you knew him, i'd love to fish with you. heck, if you didn't know him, i'll fish with you anyway. i don't really like fishing alone. congrats again.
