This is what losing 80 pounds looks like - ALL FAT BODIES COME IN HERE!

[Accord]

I was beyond just a typical fat body... I used to be "THAT GUY" that you'd see and just think to yourself "man, look at that disgusting whale... how was he able to let himself go like that? Why isn't he doing anything about it?"

Well I did do something about it and did so for the sole purpose of becoming a MARINE.

My mom found a great "before" picture of me that was taken only about a year and a half ago and I want to share it with you guys, I knew I was extremely fat but didn't realize I was THAT fat until I saw this picture of myself. I also just took an "after" picture of myself today for comparison.

This first picture is pretty embarassing, but I want to show it to you guys, especially those of you trying to lose weight right now to be able to join, you'll be able to see the transformation I made in only 5 months and hopefully you can use it as motivation for yourselves because it CAN be done and i'm living proof of it.

Here are the pictures:

The before pic you had some pu**y all over you. But since you lost weight you can't even get them in the same room with you.


Good job on the weight lose. Keep up the hard work cause it only gets harder!

[quillhill]

That is motivating. Poolee Accord, that is one hell of an accomplishment, and you should be proud of yourself. I have this gut feeling that the determination and perserverance you've displayed will help make you a darn fine Marine. I look forward to seeing you come back here (probably December, huh?) looking sharp in the uniform with your EGA.

Congratulations and keep up the good work.
