So I'm going to do it anyway.
I've thought long and hard about this, and honestly, it's no big deal. I'm not seeking much in the form of compliments or anything, but this is just a big thank you, without as many words.
When I joined this site, I was a wreck and was running off the afterglow of a great visit to a strip club, and as cheesy as this makes me, all the people, every last one of them, that I have met from this site in my travels has left their individual imprints on me.
So sentimentally, I just want to show, really what a good support system can do, the biggest decision coming to me through the unendingly selfless help of tampadancer rhiannon, and casual observer, I ended my marriage and have long since been over it.
On Jan 14th 2005 I weighed 288 lbs, I was working on a boat in ft. lauderdale fl. I had to hire someone off the street to run a wire, utterly miserable I made the decision.
Fast forward 7 months: I was talked into taking a pic and sending it by and to one of the members here. This is the first pic I allowed of me 7 months in

Since this picture, I began to change dramatically, not because of the people of this site or in my life, but because I wanted to, and through the advice I gave and the plight of others and the help of a few who decided to take an intended interest in me, I no longer cared what others thought.
I ended my toxic relationships, and those I was toxic to ended me.
through my long and detailed experience my care of other's perception of me died, having actually been payed for a photoshoot now, and basically just enjoying the new skin even though it doesn't feel like me, I stand before you a changed man.
Yesterday:

Eitherway, I thought you might care to see the fruits of your support.
A very warm thank you to the people of this site.
So you all kick ass,
and now you know what I look like. I sooooo just became exactly like everybody else. Mystery gone!
Mast.
