To whoever put down the pizza comment and is 108 lbs….yea you may enjoy you pizza, but genetically your metabolism is very high…I work at GNC and I see this day in and out…people come in like you all of the time because they are to skinny…they look like a walking bag of bones because they can eat whatever they want and at anytime they want, and not gain a single pound…so before you crack on this guy for losing 400 lbs why don't you try to gain weight and see how hard it is…

David you are a truly courageous man who has done what many people cannot. Congratulations, and be truly proud of yourself - that took guts and determination!!

I have a deep respect for your will, David. And a question: is it what now leads you to keep current diet and trainings, fear from becoming what you were or is it perhaps a philosophy that recognizes what comfort/junk foods really are and what they give you?
