I got an amazing email this morning that delighted and thrilled my soul, and so I’m going to congratulate reader Chris right out loud and in public, because he really deserves a great big round of applause.
You’ve asked to be kept up to date, so I thought I’d touch base. As of this morning’s weigh-in, I’m down 94 pounds in just under 6 months. Now, that’s from a high of 374, so at 280 I’m not exactly svelte (yet), but needless to say I’m thrilled with the progress. I’ve lost 10 inches from my waistline. It’s actually been quite easy – it’s amazing what we can do when we just make up our minds.

Thanks again for all the great information, you (along with some of the other paleo bloggers) have helped me find a lifestyle that works very well for me.
Well you’re welcome, Chris, and thank you for making the commitment to change your life, for sticking with it, and for making your results known to me so that others can be inspired and motivated by your phenomenal and rapid success on a path to health and vitality.
The best to you, and please continue to keep us informed.
AWESOME, Chris. Keep at it!
I love reading success stories like this one. What a change in just six months!
So very inspiring! Congrats to Chris. Kudos to Richard Nikoley.
Chris, that is wonderful for you. Richard gave you the tools, but you put them to use.
It just gets better – keep us up to date and enjoy your new body.
That rocks! I’ve dropped 40# over the past year, and I’m still incredibly inspired by the folks who shed even more. Way to go!
Great job, Chris! Stay the path.
Thanks for all the kudos, folks. The size and speed of the progress is, I suspect, mostly a function of how overweight I was. It’s instructive to see what our genes do when given the right stimulus. No doubt it will start to slow down when I get closer to an ideal weight.
Hey Chris – Progress pics or it didn’t happen :)
LOL – you’re right. I’ve got the do the progress pics thing. I’ll try to put something up this weekend.
Hey Chris that’s awesome. I’m a couple months ahead of you having started at 386 and just weighed in at 230. Don’t worry, it just keeps getting better and better!
