It's June time .

Not much visible change this month. I think maybe my face looks a bit thinner in the frontal view. It doesn't help that my clothes have started morphing from a wet suit to a tent lol.

Hi Dave

I just joined this forum and checked out this topic & saw the huge difference between your first picture and your most recent one. Well done! You made huge progress.

Your weight loss Dave is brilliant and your photos really show your weight loss journey, you look so much younger.

Well done:happy096:

Ok, after sleeping on it I've decided what the hell.. so here goes...

I hope it helps people on here.

I take the photo at the end of each month so no Jan yet. I had no idea that I looked that big in Aug. I knew I needed to loose weight but was still playing badminton and other activities.

Welcome any thoughts/comments.

Ok, here's January, sorry about the beard, I'll be shaving in the morning!

Update as promised (if a little late...) My camera decided to die on me so I had to use a different one (and rest it on a chair to keep it still lol) but here's February's picture. I can't see much change in the body from Jan but I think my face is thinner.

It's not a done deal with Wolves yet. It's looking better though, fingers crossed

Ok, hot off the press... here's March! I reckon I'm looking normal now lol. 3 more stone to go (I've added an extra stone of weight loss to my target).

I'm not slacking at all but I've found the weight becomes harder to shift the closer I get to my goal. I'm behind schedule by 6lbs but not deterred. Here's my pics for April.

Cheers
Dave

It's that time again. The beard was fun but I found myself stroking it whilst thinking which probably isn't a good look (as I'm not a grand master of some ancient martial art). I still look scruffy though lol. My weight loss is continuing, slow and steady. The target is to have completed the final 2st by September; meaning a total loss of 10st in 12 months.

Here's my picture for May ;-)

Cheers
Dave

It's June time .

Not much visible change this month. I think maybe my face looks a bit thinner in the frontal view. It doesn't help that my clothes have started morphing from a wet suit to a tent lol.

A recent pic taken of me with my friend’s DSLR camera. The picture quality is so much better than my camera. I think it might be time to upgrade! The one below came out well so thought I’d post it up. Makes a change from seeing me in my football kit too lol.

At this point, I have 18lbs to go before I reach the finish line.

 

[DaveC]

Sue, thanks for your kind words and welcome to MiniMins!

Thanks Nikki. Interviews for the vacancy will begin in a month or so ;-)

Mini, really appreciate you taking the time to collate the pictures (and your comments).


Cheers all.
Dave

Oh, what a honey! Dave, the change has been amazing! How does one apply for an interview?

 

[10st10lbs]

Again, wow! So much of a difference in under a year! Really inspirational and you're not that far from your target now. I'm really impressed mate! I wouldn't believe 2010 you and 2009 you were the same person! And it's lovely to see a picture of you without the tent!

Again-again, WOW! xxx

Amazing brother, awesome work your an inspiration. Unlike you i never was a chick magnet! But if i can follow your success theres hope yet!

 

[DaveC]

Thanks for your kind comments Lee. You will be successful if you really want it and if you believe you can do it. Don't rely on hope and support. Rely on you.

All the best
