Well done Charles!!

I started a combination of Paleo diet and CrossFit 3-5 times a week a few years ago at age 60. I lost 55 lbs and am in the best shape I have been since my 20's. I went from a XXL to L shirt and dropped 4 in from my waist. I had to buy all new clothes.\

On top of that my cholesterol and triglycerides dropped in half and I eat 2 eggs and 4 slices of bacon every day for breakfast

We all eat tons of bad stuff. A high protein low carb diet with exercise is the way to go. Basically don't eat processed food and keep sugar to a minimum

It's a lifestyle change for the better

Keep up the good work, its worth it

We all do stupid things when we’re young...youth + beer + a friend with a tattoo gun who thinks he’s an artist = I’m stuck with it

DOOD! PW! That's AWESOME!!! Well done.

I once won Gold's Gym's "Body-Transformation" contest. I won;t hijack your thread with my own photos, but I bring it up to say that I know how much work this represents. You probably heard from all sorts of people (my wife was the worst! haha) who say "I wish I could lose weight like you". That misses the point entirely of how much effort this required. Self-mastery is the number one thing this represents.

Well-Done. (whoops... no beer..... )
