Don't worry, I've never seen you before this video. When I first saw you I thought you looked like a runner or a triathlete. You look healthy to me. Keep up the exercise and you really just look great to me. Congratulations to you!!

From here you look like a typical, healthy guy. I started cracking up when you mentioned floating in the water. I was like a floatation device LOL.

170 is about where I need to be, but I would need "plastics" to get there. Take care, Yehuda.

@yalg22 Ha ha yeah. I could be used as a flotation device before too. Now divers could strap me to their belt so they could sink. ha ha Yeah 170 is a really nice weight. I originally set the goal of 195, and then realized I still needed to lose more, so I set the goal of 180, but still wasn't quite happy with that, so I was glad that my body just kept losing on it's own and got me down to where I am now. I have actually been trying to eat a lot to keep from going any lower.

@yalg22 And thanks for reassuring me that I look like a typical healthy guy. Because like I said, when you are told something enough times you start to believe it. I have been worried that maybe I really am starting to look anorexic or sick to people or something. But I try to remind myself that they are all just used to the fat me. All the people I see that didn't know me when I was fat seem to not think I look too thin.

[yalg22]

@TheLaRell You're right. People who are used to knowing us as being big have a hard time thinking of us as being thin. As long as you feel right and your doctor is happy than that's all that matters. Take care.

[Broadysword]

Top Effort! You don't look to thin at all. You are looking fantastic!

Thank you for the update.
