ouroborous

Oh my god, you look amazing. Comparing the before and after pictures is night and day... the before picture is a heavy person who looks older than her age. Now you just look young, vibrant, and beautiful!

Tremendous progress! Congratulations!

Congratulations on your progress; you're looking great!

Looking great!

Doing great, and looking good!

I'll try! I've been such a lone wolf/monk type for so long, I haven't had TOO much to smile about. Hoping that will change in the near future -- summer is coming, I'm looking and feeling good, and Seattle is a lovely place to be in the summer, so... good times!

I know, I need someone to make me laugh more! I always look like I'm about to murder someone in my pictures, and I have to tell people "no, really, I'm a nice, happy guy! Honest!"

Why thank you! *blush*

You look amazing; your before and after pictures are night and day, and you look so much happier and healthier!

That's amazing; I'm a guy, and *I'd* kill to have those abs!

This is an amazing change; you've made such tremendous progress!

Not only are you much slimmer than your "before" pictures, but you look younger, too -- isn't it weird how that works? I know that most people seem to drop 5-10 years when they drop the weight, and you're no exception.

Keep up the great work!

Oh, in case you're wondering, that's a slightly tweaked Suzuki M109R2. No, it's not a Harley; I don't ride crappy bikes... I ride GOOD bikes. And yes, it sounds bad-ass, not like a putt-putt lawn mower.

Thank you both for the kind words!

Okay, NOW can I say that you look amazing?

Okay, NOW I can say it without feeling like a heel: I can definitely see the changes in this picture, even just one week post-op! Congratulations!

Well, it *should* run on any modern (XP and later) version of Windows.

Sorry, I'm still learning Mac programming, and Linux programming is too much work for too little gain :thumbup:

Someday soon I'll write it as an Android market web app, so if you have an Android phone, you can buy it for a dollar or something. But I have to make it less hacky and more feature-full before I could sell it with a clean conscience :thumbup:

Thanks for all the kind words. Every time that I feel frustrated that the weight isn't coming off "fast enough," I just have to look at this and remind myself: this is what three months looks like. In a year, I won't even recognize myself!

Also, I'm hoping that the positive changes start showing up in my tummy as well as my face. I'm happy about the changes in my face, don't get me wrong, but I'd love to be able to take a vacation somewhere sunny this winter and not feel TOO ashamed of my body!

Thanks! I intend to keep working on it, at least for another 40-50 pounds

I know, right?

Coming soon: black Baron Big Air Kit (replaces the stock round air cleaner between the cylinders),

, and a Power Commander V (which won't be visible, but will be working hard to keep the fuel injection mixing properly). Once I get it dyna-tuned, it should give me about 15% more horsepower and 10-15% more torque. Can you say "bye-bye, Mr. Douchebag in the BMW?"
