Less of ME

[wheelieterp]

I am packing for my move(More on that later tonight)and I come across some pic taken of me from 5 years ago at my heaviest.. 297 pounds.. I look like a different person. See the pics and a pic taken today at the following link:

82 pounds??? That's quite impressive. How did you do it?
You could go on Oprah now! :)

1) I quit drinking. Beer(especially the way I drank it) is REALLY fattening.

2) I shun fast food now.. Like the plaugue.

3) This is the hardest one... NO HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP. It's in everything. This means no Sodas.

4) I really just changed my eating habits. I eat fresh, whole foods now instead of processed, canned, or boxed crap.. I don't eat a whole lot of meat. I make my own juice and drink LOTS of water. And believe it or not, I am happy.. I am not miserable, hungry all the time, or bummed aboutnot being able to eat stuff..

Yeah, I used to drink 3 or 4 cans of pop a day. I traded the pop for green tea (which I love). I lost 2 inches around my waist the first week I stopped drinking Coke & root beer with every meal. I miss it a little bit, but I definitely feel better & have less acid problems.

The pics dont even really do it justice... The pants I was wearing in those pics were a size 42. I am now wearing a 34.... That's 8 inches!! I carried the weight in such a way that I can;t really even tell until i look at pics and think about how different I FEEL now.
