before/after

A few days ago i was waiting in line at a shop. A friend that i haven't seenin a while comes in.. walks right passed me. So i say hey how are you? He stops turns around, looks at me...uhmm do i know you? This has happened a few times to me so maybe i have changed more then i think. I just can't see it.

Well not to such extend at least.

Other questions i often get are..
So you gotta feel much better now?
Well I tell you, nope not at all. Even when i was such fat, i never experienced any restrictions in my possibilities or movements. Sure it was a bit more difficult to get trough a crowded room, but thats just cuz i needed more space to pass.
I have always been able to climb up and down my truck as much as required, i wouldn't even been scared to challenge many thin people to do the same.
I know some would like to hear me say that being fat was such an awefull experience cuz it helps them to uphold their ideas that fat people are not as good as them. Sorry but that won't happen.

I did however experience some major back pains recently and that is cuz i lost so much weight, my spine needs to adjust to this new position and that could take a while. But it doesn't bother me much anymore so guess the worse part is over.

am i happy with the results?
what result? am i happy cuz i appear more thin? Nope
But i am happy to know that it will be better for my knees and hips and such cuz the way i was going i was bound to get problems with those in the next few years. I know those parts will have suffered much the last few years but at least they won't need to suffer anymore.

So you gotta be more popular now with the ladies?
Uhmm Who cares? First of all I got my lady for life. Second, why would i be interested in someone who didn't like me enough a few years ago? I don't go for shalow people so its their loss, not mine.

Well let's conclude with some pics...

yes what a change ........lets hope you live longer ...try giving up smoking and see how you feel ...wave
I gave it away after all my older family died from it , I dont mind going with out it now , I have have more money to pend on my boat..banana
i'm sorry to hear many of your family died, but their hasn't been a single conclusive study that provides evidence smoking kills. On the other hand their have been studies showing benefits from smoking.
You don't seem that happy about it confused surely your truck must be much faster now professor laugh rolling on the floor laughing beer
I don't see why i should be happy because of this zman... I'm still the same guy.

And my truck won't notice such small difference. Besides i had to give up my real truck, it has been replaced by a renault.. someone told my boss those are also trucks.
thats ok .....I gave up so there wouldn't be a world shortage ....banana
Hi Teddy
Hmm, I hear the smoke meat to make it last longer.laugh

But jokes aside, I think you did well to loose some weight.thumbs up
cheers wave
You're a hard man to please, at least look at it from the point of view that there wouldn't have been much point finding the girl of your dreams & having heart failure doh when was the last time you saw a healthy old guy the size you were dunno
yeah i think so cat, I just wonder how much more i will loose.
Oh i know that Zman, thats why i said in the long term it will be the best choice. With my weight i wouldn't have lived long, and my quality of life would have been much less in the future. But untill this point i never experienced any healthproblems related to my weight so can't say i feel better now cuz of the weightloss.
I`ve been trying to lose some weight ...in certain areas
to be honest I haven`t seen my pee-pee in ages...laugh
It amazes me that you feel this way.

I have recently lost weight and feel totally different as a result. I am healthier, fitter and most definitely happier as a result. I know I have a good bit still to lose but the fact that I feel so much better is encouraging me to keep losing the lbs.

You are joking about the smoking thing arent you? I mean why would you need a study to show you that its bad for you when it obviously is?
@teddy,
1. am glad you keep your words to tell us about how you lost your weight. It show me you are a person that hold on your promise.
2. i give my thumbs up to you, you not even feel ashamed to show us your before and after pic. On which others shall hide it as long as they could.
3. you should be grateful coz of the pain you suffer on your back pain you could less your weight, and have a happy and more healthy life.
4. i like to see what you are now more than b4 (honestly)
5. i admired jenny, coz she accept and love you for what you are. not many woman will do as she do. Kindly send my warm regards to her. love is amazing..thumbs up handshake hug wine wave
devo, try using mirrors. professor

glatlol, you are a bit older then me so that could make a difference maybe. Now about the smoking, Why should that be obvious? Cuz gouverment and anti-tobacco lobby tells you? They have yet to provide a conclusive study that proofs the connection between smoking and death. Their are on the other hand conclusive studies that proof benefits of smoking in reduced risk for alzheimer and related illnesses. The only problem is those kinds of studies won't make it to the general public cuz gouverments don't want you to find out. They have been using smoking as a scapegoat for such a long time, to cover up other things and to spice up their incomes. They can't just come out and tell the truth anymore.

Mei, thanks and i also admire my jenny, she is the most wonderful woman.

cailin, be sure those hormones and other things you take will be much more harmful to you.
Now smoking does make me smell different, you may call it bad if you want... but having a bad smell won't kill me faster.
About the bronchial spasms you get from cigarette smoke... is that supposed to tell me cigarette smoke is harmful? No, it only tells me you might have a problem with your lungs, maybe dicreased cappacity or some other problem. Maybe it can even be compared to an allergy, but being allergic to something doesn't mean its a bad or unhealthy thing. Or do you also believe that someone that lives with cats will die younger cuz some people are allergic to them?
