lost 130lbs less than a year
« on: May 27, 2007, 07:21:29 AM »
I am pumped and just had to share! :) My "little" brother who lives with us due to his disabilities has lost 130 lbs in 11 months.  He came to live with us in June of 2006 and weighed in at 429...last night he broke 300 for the first time in a very long time weighing in at 299! O0

W3!ght I better get off my butt, since I've been hovering between 220-225 myself(would like to be 200-210), before he passes me up! !i#t

Absolutely phenomenal!
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

I guess you could say his program is the new environment he lives in...we help him monitor his intake and added him to our fitness club membership.  He doesn't enjoy the treadmill, but began by walking at a slow rate...then he made it his goal to either increase the speed or minutes the next treadmill session.

Thanks all who have posted and sent their praise.  My not-so-little brother gets a kick out of it and I know it adds to his motivation. :)

UPDATE-

It will be a year this Friday that my bro moved in, at 429 pounds.  He's lost even more weight since my last post...down to 294! :)

Think he needs to contact Subway, since he seems to live off their turkey subs! Not sure if his weight loss will be greater than Jared's?

Side note, I'm not going to let him catch me! He has inspired me to break my own plateau(220)...now hovering around 217.

Great for him .... Tell him to keep it up
