April 4, 201412 yr Well, it has not been a year yet since I started losing weight. I was gonna wait till then to post this but since Lisa did It I figured I could do it too. It is about 10 months in between the two pics... Sometimes you just gotta laugh.... it is about 45 pound difference! I need to get a better after pic outside in the same chair once the snow melts the rest of the way.
April 4, 201412 yr you look fantastic........healthy young and happy! You look like the younger version of yourself!
April 4, 201412 yr I swear.....this forum is full of the most inspirational people!! Scott, you should be proud!! You look healthy and happy. :)
April 4, 201412 yr good god scott!!! Between you and Lisa....you lost a whole person!! Fabulous! lol we did what should we name our "person" Scott? lol
April 4, 201412 yr Scott you look like a completely different person. Good job! Has your weight stabilized yet? It is funny how we expect to look older when we lose weight, but it is usually the opposite. I think too, shaving the mustache took some years off too!
April 4, 201412 yr Holy Highwayman Batman I have said it before, and I'll say it again...I'm on the Message Board of Handsome Beasts and Beautiful Women! Scott, fantastic job. You look happier, healthier, (lighter) and younger! Clearly lithe and fit is the new cuddly...I need to have a strong think about this.....well after I have had a lie down... :D Great work.

April 4, 201412 yr Author Thanks Everyone... LIke I said, I was gonna wait two more months but I dont expect to look any different then than I do now.. and Since lisa was out there all by her self I figured I would join her... good god scott!!! Between you and Lisa....you lost a whole person!! LOL!!! lol we did what should we name our "person" Scott? lol Not sure lisa... keep trying to come up with something creative but it aint happening.. lol....How bout.. "Gone-n-Glad" 1.) Scott you look like a completely different person. Good job!2.) Has your weight stabilized yet?3.) It is funny how we expect to look older when we lose weight, but it is usually the opposite. I think too, shaving the mustache took some years off too! 1.) I have kind of adjusted to it now... but there had been a couple times when I saw my reflection in a store window or some other odd place and it did not register right away... lol2.) For those of you that do not know, I kind of got to my goal weight (where I am now) and then suddenly was 5 pounds lighter in like 10 days. I went from trying to lose weight to trying to gain it. So the answer is that I am maintaining my weight. If I gain a pound or two, I do an extra spin class or something. Wether you are losing or gaining, it is all about calories in and calories burned... I weigh myself at least every other day to keep an eye on it.3.) Hahahah!!! I had that mustache for almost 35 years. I actually screwed up trying to trim the grey out of it and ended up just shaving it off completely, plan was to grow one right back. But the reactions I got from everyone was too much fun... My niece was the funniest about it because she just did not know what to say!!! lol.
April 4, 201412 yr Author omg that's amazing, truly amazing ... can't get enough of these before and afters ... how did you lose the weight ??? When I first decided that my quit was strong and I needed to do something I went on a diet... basically I gave up bread, pasta, and potatoes ( I did not eat a lot of bad stuff to begin with ). As always with a diet the first pounds come off pretty quick. 6 weeks or so later I had lost 8 pounds and added riding a bike to my schedule. I peddled my but off last summer and into the fall. By thanks giving I had lost almost 25 pounds, and then I joined a gym. I do two sessions per week with a weight trainer and I have to say that it was the key to weight loss... The first 25 pounds took me 7 months... the next 20 pounds took two months with the weight workouts. Sounds so simple.... But.... I made a commitment to this just like I made a commitment to NOPE! Anyone can do it.... you may even be surprised to find out that you enjoy it.. I know I was!!
April 4, 201412 yr Scott, you look fantastic. You also, have changed your life for the better. You look happy and healthy. You have really been an inspiration to us all through your journey. Proud of you Scott.
