I agree, guys. Great thread - what motivation! It's clear from all of your stories that making a change is all about focus and determination and it is NEVER too late to make that change.
We're talking physical fitness here, but the analogy is much wider. It can apply to all aspects of your life. Og - you're a prime example of this, going back to school to start down a new career path. I wonder if you would have been able to do that if it were not for the lessons you learned in making your physical transformation? I'm sure your physical accomplishments have given you the confidence you need to move forward with your career goals as well. Now, THAT's inspiration for you!
Kudos to all of you - you deserve one helluva lot of credit for what you've accomplished. And thanks for posting the pics. I'm sure it's a little tough to look back at those "befores".
