Dad on the run.
Just wanted to share some pics with you guys on the progress I have made since I started losing weight and trying to get in better shape.
Here I am at probably my largest. I was close to tipping 250 on the scales.
My wife and I started C25K in May 2012. I have pictures of my with shirts on but this was the first progress type picture that I took. These were taken 9-13-2012
I decided before I made it any further into the 30 day shred that I would take pics (finished day 3 today). I could not believe how much different I look since the Sept. pictures.
Current weight now is 196 lbs.
I'm really excited to see what kind of results I get after I am done with the 30 day shred.

Sloooow.
I don't know if it's just me, but I can't see your latest pictures

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

Congrats, Jimmy!
How much weight difference is between the last two sets of pictures? You look so different! Much more toned and lean. You are doing amazing, such a huge change from your journey.

Thank you for sharing with us, Jimmy! You look fantastic! I like that you included the dates also so that it doesn't give the impression that it was an overnight transformation, but rather a long term change. Congratulations! I know from your RRs and penguin threads that you're such an inspiration and role model to those around you.
