Call the forum to order.  Nominations from the floor for Post of the Day.  OldAg92 Not Obese.  Any other nominations.  Hearing none.  All in favor.  All opposed.  Ayes have it.

This is what we're here for.  Great job.

All I can say is WOW, like everyone else already did. That is un-f@@@@@ng believable. AWESOME. Notice how much younger you look?

I myself had noticed the leg definition in the new you, but wasn't gonna comment because...err, well, because I'm a guy and...er...well, not that there's anything wrong with that but...

...a h#ll, you know what I mean. Great JOB! You have my respect.

Congrats.  Keep it off now, because it gets harder and harder as you age to get the weight off.

Nothing to be ashamed about regarding the "before" pics...you should be happy to display them next to your new bod. You're an inspiration to big people everywhere that with some motivation and discipline, you can change your life around. Keep it up...everyone here is proud of you!

Brother Brandt, what can I say man? Happy Birthday! You accomplished something no one can give you, no amount of cash can buy, no pill or gadget can provide. What you have is bought and paid for with your hard work and those of us that have watched you do it are better for knowing you. Good luck Sunday!

*edit* first post on page two. I rock.

Okay Brandt, Happy Birthday - but this thread has made me CRY!!! I've met you recently, but if that "before" guy walked into my office right now I would not recognize him. (I mean in business clothes. If he walked in like that I would call security.) WOW!!! I am SO PROUD OF YOU!

The Brandt in the second pic, the one I know, DOES look way younger than that guy. And happier, stronger, etc. WOW!

The reason we can't put these pics in a commercial is because you didn't accomplish this with some gimmick drink or pill or fad diet, you did it with sensible, healthy eating and lots of PHYSICAL ACTIVITY - something many people think they're allergic to or something, sadly!

Also love what you said about your girls - do you know that your example, and the fun they're having running around with you right now, is setting THEM up for longer healthier livestyles too? Wow again.

Happy Birthday Brandt! This thread belongs over in tri talk really. Everyone should see it.

Celeste,

Thanks.  And funny you should mention it, but EVERY time someone asks "how I did it" and I tell them through diet and exercise, they look completely deflated.  One guy even said "Oh, I was hoping you were taking something." 

It seems there are just way too many people looking for the magic pill, the newest fad diet, etc.  My mom told me I should write a book about my life changes (I've always enjoyed writing) but I told her it would probably flop unless I lied and said I did it all by eating only tree bark and drinking some magic potion....the gimmick is what sells, unfortunately, because it is selling false hope to people.  No one wants to read about exercising a lot and eating healthy.

Thanks for the kind words.

You know, I don't usually promote this sort of angle, but...

maybe, at least for guys, you can say you did it by hanging out with beautiful women in spandex one weekend a month last summer? nah, never mind. we'd better not go there. after all, this thread is still in COJ and it could get scary in here pretty fast.

Happy Birthday, Brandt!  You look amazing, and you deserve it.  You are an extremely hard working, committed person (and a nice guy too, what a package).  The only thing that could possibly improve your after picture is a NICE BIG SMILE!!!

Enjoy this time in your life - you earned it!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRO!!!!
