Talking Goal Goal Goal Goal Goal Goal Goal

I AM IN CELEBRATION MODE AND MOOD.

I hit my goal of 175 pounds from 387.

I am so pleased with the progress that I have had

I have lost an average of 3.72 pounds per week

I started with my program on 10/08/06 and had surgery on 2/12/07.

I have dropped a total of 99 total inches

10/08/09 --11/11/07
Neck 19.50 -- 14
Bicep 18 -- 13
Forearm 15 -- 11.5
Chest 57.5 -- 42
Waist 62 -- 37
Hips 65 -- 39
Thigh 37 -- 21.5
Calf 21 --15

This just makes me smile....

I still can not believe that those small pants actually fit each morning I have an epiphany. WOW

Boy o Boy Dave! You look half the man and ARE TWICE the man you were before you started. A real bloke of courage, determination, patience and humour! Indeed, you'll be getting second, even third glances! Fantastic and all best wishes for sailing your ship close to the wind! Big hug!
