JessieT 10 Posted July 19, 2008 Just watched your slide show, Padre. It was really cool to see you shrink like that, and become so muscular. Your poor wife, though. I bet she's gotta keep shooing the ladies off of you! SW and HW-198 CW-192.5 Â [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Â Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PadreC 10 Posted July 21, 2008 Thanks for the comments everyone. I should also say that my wife started ww with me and I never would have gotten going w/out her. About 3 months into it we learned she was pregnant with our 2nd boy. She only gained 25 lbs during the pregnancy and lost it all by her 6 week appointment. Â She's about 20lbs from her goal weight and trucking right along. It's incredible having her by my side.

hansolo 10 Posted October 10, 2008 Padre, I'd say you're a huge inspiration, but you're not so huge anymore! So instead, I'll say youre a great inpiration!! Your starting weight was the same as mine - if you can do it, so can I! Great job - you look great (and probably feel a whole lot healthier, too!) -Dan MO Platoon Member #326 SW: 358.5 (02-18-08) CW: 326.3 (04-06-09) GW: 185.0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest peaceofmind Posted October 10, 2008 I watched your slideshow last night. You definitely look younger and hot (no disrespect to the wifee). And your wife is the bomb as well. She only gained 25lbs....wow!! That is so great to have a relationship like that were you really able to workout with each other and reach your goal together!

PadreC 10 Posted October 31, 2008 Just saw my showoff thread was getting some action again. Thanks everyone. I hit 199.5 yesterday and literally as I walked out of the gym after weighing that for the first time a tv station called me and asked if they could do a story on me and my weight loss. Â If you're just starting out, like Hansolo, let me encourage you. You can do it, it's worth it. You need discipline, time, and persistence. Â Don't quit, don't quit, don't quit!
