This is the closest thing to a before picture I have
Our company golf tournament that I organized. This was September 2015. I'm second from the left.
A few years ago at my friend's wedding. This was my previous lowest weight at 290ish. I was at 342 when I started
In early December. Approximately a month in and already down 20 or so pounds.
Electric Sliding at a Gala in February just before I began running.
My wife and I on our vacation in the ides of March at Half Moon Cay Bahamas down 82 pounds at this point.
Freeport Bahamas glass bottom boat in March
A few months back when I was down 99 Pounds. I've lost 54 since then.
One of my most recent photos. I was down about 140 pounds at this point.
An action shot that my fundraising coach for St Jude requested. I'm proud to have raised over $4200 for this charity.
My most recent picture. Down 153 pounds. This is the first time in my life I've worn a medium sweater. I was in 4XLT before. 32x30 Pants when I was up to 48x30 before.

look at that chin. you could cut with it because it's like sharp or something. Serious though, congrats. Keep up the amazing work.
JeremyPost
Seems like you aren't alone in that sentiment. Lots of people have said that. It's very nice of you to say. Thanks for all the kind words!
ItsThoseZanyGermans
The most important bit of weightloss was in your face, though. And I'm not talking about the double chin... but seriously, good for you man.
JeremyPost
It's ridiculous sometimes. I don't even recognize me.

I am at 46x30 now so I take the challenge
JeremyPost
You got this! Eat less, move more. That's what it took for me. It's tough, but it isn't impossible.

There's not quite as much of me to go around as there used to be :) Flattery will get you everywhere though!

FunkyFunkyJones
When you lose weight, people who knew you bigger do get weirded out seeing you smaller. I've struggled to find a balance between (1)
ReferenceCheck
This. You can still be above an ideal weight and considered “too skinny”.
FunkyFunkyJones
(2) 'too thin to look healthy' and 'too big to be healthy.'
asifyoudid
You are like two completely different people! You look great @op, don't take it too far though, you look a really good weight now!
JeremyPost
This is where I want to be long term.Short term I want to lose 19 pounds just to say I'm half the man I was. Then back to 185 or so. Thanks!
DogsAndMemesAreMyTwoFavoriteThings
I’ve been working out recently, but my issue is that I looooove beer/wine/whiskey... so I feel like I reverse all progress every weekend 1/2
DogsAndMemesAreMyTwoFavoriteThings
Any suggestions? D: this journey is taking way longer than it should but I don’t think I’m strong enough to give it up altogether...
JeremyPost
Counting calories worked wonders for me. Beer and alcohol are very rare indulgences for me. Luckily I never drank all that much. Keep at it!
JazzSpazzCat
I sat staring at the first image waiting for you to shrink...

What about the excess skin? Surgery? Girdle?
GrimlinKid
Make...make it into a sweater
joeyjojosharknado
Flap of skin that you can stretch between your hands and feet to glide like a flying squirrel? Cause that would be neato.
afriendlyhello
Patagium!
JeremyPost
I have to wear tights when I run too because of my legs. I'll probably talk to my doctor at my next visit.
DaBear04
What about lifting to “bulk” up your legs a bit? Won’t fix everything but would definitely tighten things up a bit.
JeremyPost
I have to do some weight training soon. I have lost a lot of muscle. Skin in other areas that won't be fixed by that though.
JeremyPost
I'm starting to seriously contemplate surgery for the skin. I think I'll try a girdle or compression top first. It's becoming unsightly.
LionSundress
My friend had it done, she has never been happier. Worth it after the weight loss
sorceroranathema9
Like an avocado had sex with an even uglier avacado?
Shakenpeachtree
You're a bit of an asshole aren't you? Reference or not, let's not shit on the guy.
CaptainInvictus
It's a friendly joke reference, calm yer roids
27yoUGLYvirgin
One can tell that you lack empathy. If you really think it's friendly to joke about someone else's misfortune like that you are a sad man.
Shakenpeachtree
I get the joke, but how is it friendly? It's one thing if this dude is your actual friend, but telling a stranger this is just a mean joke.
DickSoup
Holy crap! Well done, OP. You look great. Nicely done.

Your wife must be over the moon too! Such hard work, you're setting a great example for everyone! Yaaaaasss
JeremyPost
She's been great. She pushes me and gives me motivation every day. She's the biggest reasons I did this. Didnt want to leave her a widow.
theycallmefattigerhamburgur
Holy shit guy you look amazing
JeremyPost
Thanks so much!
chdspny
Wow congrats man, I am just starting a journey of workouts and what not to see where I end up...I’m starting almost exactly where you did
JeremyPost
You got this. I hope you do better than me!
hardstuffdontgothroughwalls
Holy handsome, Batman! You look so much happier and healthier. You're face says it all. Good for you, you handsome devil!
hardstuffdontgothroughwalls
Your* that's embarrassing
JeremyPost
Don't even worry about it. Had a guy make a snarky comment about how I would gain it all back and said "To bad" I almost said something. ???
hardstuffdontgothroughwalls
Hahahahaha you should have! I would
JeremyPost
Thank you for the kind words. I couldn't be happier right now. Looking forward to running my first half-marathon next month!
ElRadis
And to be honest, you're also likely to live longer, which is nice....
superGarbageDump
Damn. Great job man. I always wonder though: how does a spouse feel if they don’t take the same journey and have a similar situation?
JeremyPost
Also, thanks!
JeremyPost
She's been supportive but it's also been a little difficult. She's successfully lost more before and is down about 40 now. I have a good one
superGarbageDump
Well best of luck to you guys man. That’s great.
CometBoy
Unbelievable difference man! I literally gasped as I scrolled down.
deekadeek
Same.
HorrendousSpaceKablooie
Seriously, you look fantastic! Very handsome!
supersmashsisters
I know right? Impressive as hell
JeremyPost
Thank you very much. I sometimes don't recognize myself in the mirror. This is in only 11 months without surgery.
AnActualFox
What an inspiration, dude. I'm working on it, but I just started pushing myself. I'm at ~5 miles every day now, up from 1-2 three times/week
JeremyPost
Keep up the great work. Push yourself to smash those PRs. Don't skip rest day and don't skip speed work no matter how bad it sucks.
CometBoy
Did you keto?
JeremyPost
No, I simply count my calories and exercise 5 days a week. I'm currently training for a half marathon.
lionsilverwolf
Hell yeah! CC for the win. I dropped 40lbs just from restraining myself. Back to the battle again after binging from stress.
JeremyPost
Keep up the great work! Everyone has some bad weeks and days. Don't beat yourself up.
CometBoy
Well Good luck with the marathon!
lurker5000
Congrats! It's a huge lifestyle change many aren't willing to make and/or stick to.
DiamondLeaguePlayer
Good work on the weight loss, I like the goatee loss as well. You look amazing!
ImSquatchingYou
That's crazy!! You look completely different!
JeremyPost
I feel completely different too. It's great!
ImaRealBoy555
You turned into your own more successful brother. The one that wears sweaters, runs 5k's, and owns a boat. That's you now.
potatotheloaf
Looks way younger now, too

Maybe he ate his heart and absorbed all his power, like they did in ancient times.
Gatadata
i wanna be that one, noting this
BlackDragoness
Good luck. The dragons believe in you!
JeremyPost
Man, I really need to buy a boat! Ran my first 15K race this weekend. My first half is coming up November 12 in Las Vegas!
handsMoleman
Good luck! Stay relaxed and you'll get through the half fine
JeremyPost
I've run the distance in my training, and always doing great on race days. All the adrenaline and I hydrate and get my nutrition. Thanks!
ImaRealBoy555
I didn't even know there were races with that many K's!
SwarzeTrauer
Humanity is the best race for the 40k's
TraitorousTrump3
Wait, did you run the hot chocolate 15k in Denver?
JeremyPost
I didn't, I ran the Novant in Cornelius, NC. I'll be running the hot chocolate in Charlotte though in February.
TraitorousTrump3
I guess Feb in Charlotte is about the same as September in Denver, temperature wise!
TrackerF16
have fun at rock and roll, its cold and dry, dress appropriately
JeremyPost
I hope to have a great time. I can't wait!
TrackerF16
but it was a really fun event, there are little mini stages with live bands all over the place, and you get to see freemont street too
TrackerF16
ive rode support for the marathon on my bike, i was very cold by the time it was over
JeremyPost
I ran my 15k in 50s and 60s this past weekend and it was perfect. I'm expecting more of the same out there. Is that about accurate?
WrinkleStar
@JeremyPost if you want to run a half marathon in Utah or Texas one fine October I'll give you free sign ups to mine. The Haunted Half
WrinkleStar
JeremyPost
Or Salt Lake for that matter.
JeremyPost
If it's the one I'm looking at in Provo, I definitely am all in for next October. I can't imagine how gorgeous that run would be.
JeremyPost
Oh hell yes! I'm all about free racing! PM me some more information if you don't mind.

I've been on a weightloss journey, but unfortunately it ends at the fridge.
IWasInThePool
There's always the journey back to the couch.
UsernameTBA
PmMeGifsForSauce
Joke or not, that's actually a great way to start. Best way to keep it off, is to eat right.
TheBIFFALLO87
I lost a lot of weight recently, but I found most of it.
ProphetJerematic
I’ve tried to lose weight.. but I hate losing
copingcabana
Let's talk about the elephant in the room. That's you. (Me, too, but I'm not in the room)
SidneyHarbor
For a second I glanced at the comments and thought this said "I've been on a weightless journey." and looked to see if you were Elon Musk.
JeremyPost
End it there with something you can munch on for low calories. Pickles, carrots, broccoli. I have to stay busy or I boredom eat.
sharkmommychompers
serious moment though, I actually love steamed broccoli and carrots. Started snacking on those, save money AND calories! woo!
CwispyNoodles
I can't stand steamed veggies, I prefer the raw stuff
lionsilverwolf
I wound up switching to drinking a ton of water. Hail hydrate and all that jazz.
omgturtles
Fresh steamed green beans are my go to snack lately. I've just planted my own beans and carrots too, so can't wait for those!
sharkmommychompers
I would love to plant anything but i live in sw Florida.... and I'm renting... also, your name is +1
omgturtles
I'm also renting, I've just used extra deep planter boxes for the carrots and the beans in pots with bamboo stakes.
krapmyself
I tried the pickles snack thing but got tired of shooting battery acid out of my asshole.
Jerrec46
That's my problem is boredom eating. Besides eating healthy stuff what else would you recommend?
JeremyPost
I run a lot. I exercise 5 days/wk training for a half marathon. I volunteer in my community in a variety of ways. Lots of distraction.
lionsilverwolf
Water, gum/mints, a banana if you're actually hungry. All things that help suppress appetite/cravings.
JeremyPost
I try to stay busy on my rest days and the weekends. I volunteer in the community. I own a home so there's always something to do there.
DaBear04
Pick up a hobby as a distraction. I’ve always run/done triathlons but still ate too much. Picked up an older Jeep as a project. Kills time
fluhatinrapper
Do shit.
definitelynotawolf
Chug water whenever you're hungry. Seriously, it fills you up and accelerates weight loss
knotch2
I'm doing this. I love your progress pictures you're inspiring me. I'm down 19lbs in 2 months! I love running now. Makes me feel good ????
JeremyPost
Awesome job! Want to pick a half-marathon and I'll come run it with you? PM me if you do.
knotch2
I will definitely let you know if I start to prepare for one of those. Weight loss is the main goal! :D
