Minus 110lbs- Feels great thanks loseit!

A little bit about myself: I am a twenty year old college student. When I was a senior in high school, I was a little over 300 pounds. After a car accident (don't worry I am ok, except for the 3 herniated disks in my back haha), I went to my doctor (because I had a concussion) and he told me to take off my shirt for the examination. His literal words, "Phil, you have to lose some weight, you really let yourself go." After that I started to diet and work out, and in 4 months I lost 70 pounds. Over the course of 2010 I lost the remaining weight. Although I have only been an official redditor since this year, I have always browsed r/loseit when I first discovered it early in 2010. Thanks to the motivation that I have seen in here, and from my friends and family, I have lost over 100 pounds and it really feels great.

The best tips I can give for anyone who is trying to lose weight: don't quit! It is a battle, but it is well worth it in the end. Know that you have the support of every single redditor out there!

Here are the pics, because we all know "pics or it didn't happen": http://imgur.com/a/Vc2H7 (Edit: I am the one on the right for both pics)

Thanks r/loseit for helping me become a happier and healthier person!
