OMG
Written by Michael on April 25th, 2008
Taken 6/26/07, I was about 260 pounds
Taken today, 193.0 pounds.
I can barely recognize the top picture but it has given me motivation to get on the bike right now, at 8:55 pm. Even at 193 though, I’m still about 20 pounds overweight for my height of 6′ 1″. Sorry about the scruff, I would have shaved but I was testing out my new camera and was shocked to see myself.

Holy moly – You look great! Glad you posted a current pic, so I know who to look for when I get down to the office next week.
You’re my hero. You’ve been telling me about the weight loss for awhile now, so I got started on my own program week after Easter. Lost 12 pounds so far. But … since I’m twice as old as you are, I figure I only have to go half as far as you did. Heh.

Whoa!!! Honestly, Michael you don’t need to lose anymore weight. Your face is skinny! I hardly recognized you. Maybe just exercise to tone would be enough. Great going for a job well done.

OMG – WOW glad you posted that ‘after’ pic, Jay and I may not have recognized you at the airport next week!!
You and my nephew have done a remarkable job of weight loss, he has lost 88 pounds in the past 4 months, I just saw him last Sunday for the first time since starting his diet right after Christmas, he said he also has about 20 pounds to go. Personally, I don’t think either one of you need to lose anymore!
What an inspiration to all of us – great job Michael!!
I am very proud of you and can’t wait to see you!
Love Nance

You give me inspiration. Truly, you do. I am about 250, and trying to get back to 185. I CAN DO IT!
Congratulations, you have done an awesome thing.

WOW, you look awesome!! 20 lbs more would be way too much I think. You look fantastic already.

Just wanted you to know, that I think you should keep your hair long. When we say you a couple of weeks ago, with all of your weight loss and longer hair, you looked just like you did in your High School Senior pictures – fantastic!! Right before we came to see you guys, I was sorting ’stuff’ in our storage downstairs and came across some photos, some of your HS pics were in there, so it was remarkable to see how much you have not changed since then.
Love ya Nance
