Beautifully done, bb.com!
Jesse, you continue to impress and amaze me. I remember the first few weeks when you couldn't even stand long enough to brush your teeth. Now you're speaking in front of company execs and taking the world by storm. So proud of you.
So proud of all the helpful members here on this thread. It has been a treat to get to know many of you as a result of Jesse.
This world can be a good place. This community proves it!!

Okay, logging back in again to write this:
Jesse, I also want to thank you for being brave enough to share your life with us. I know there were plenty of moments you might not want to document for the world. You have inspired so many and will continue to do so. Thanks for sharing the ups and downs, the struggles and the triumphs. I am honored to have been a small part.

Howdy Jesse,
I just wanted to pop in and check on you.
What an amazing video bro.
I am so proud of you sir.
Just wanted you to know I am thinking of you and still kicking.
Our gym we built just hit 350 members and me and my business partner just gave 20 people free memberships for 6 months, we have trainers working with them 3 times a week for free, I have provided them with meal plans and counseling in nutrition for free.
I have directed all of them to your website and just want you to know that you continue to inspire not only myself, but all these other people you don't even know.
Keep doing the work brother.�����Dirty�����South�����Crew�����

There is no catch all answer or approach because, as with most things in regards to human behavior, it is as unique as the individual. Some people respond to adversity, others respond to kindness. Myself? I responded to a combination of humor and having logical small steps outlined for me. What works will depend on many factors, such as the root cause was for their weight gain, what obstacles, real or imagined, keep them from reversing their state. Their support system and the people they keep around them, their cultural background, etc.
I don't think being fat is much different from any other human flaw other than the fact that its highly visible. What I think my story proves, though, is that simply writing off someone who is obese as a lost cause is doing a disservice. Attitudes can be changed. Bad habits can be reversed. Some may take more convincing than others, but if you believe that ever human has potential, than it seems worthwhile to figure out which approach will help them.
Large part^ and I am honored to be able to share it
Will do, and good luck in your journey as well
That is hugely inspirational, your desire to help people not only is making a huge difference in others lives, but you've also been able to turn it into a successful career path as well. You are someone I will always look up to(392.4 lbs pounds lost so far)
(then 104lbs gained....still venerable, never out of the woods)

I haven't posted on the forum in possibly a year and a half... And I received an email today about the incredible shrinking man. I decided to look, because it was a familiar face. About 2 years ago I had joined in and said we're all going to make it. You've made it. Congratulations.

Congrats Wetty, I remember when you first made that original thread. I haven't checked in for a few months but damn man the transformation you have had is still one of the most impressive transformations I have and probably will ever see.

Jesse My Friend,
It's been a while since I've been around this part of the board...or the board at all for that matter. As perosnal life has taken large priority lately due to some big changes.
However, another member was kind enough to touch base on ******** and link me the video as well as as certain moment (18:10-18:20 time frame) in it.
I want to say that I have honestly taken very few greater pleasures in life than having had the opportunity to spend some time with you in person and just talk with you about anything and everything.
You have one of the greatest mindsets in life and I still to this day tell, and show, your story to any friends/family who have shown interest in changing their lifestyle, but didn't believe they could.
I wanted to thank you personally for the mention in the video, but also let you know that you have done more for so many people than any gesture I could have done for you.
It was an honor and pleasure brotha.
Forever Lurking,

This stuff always happens when I don't check this thread for a couple weeks.
First, the weigh in. Outstanding considering your hiccups over the month. Well done!
Second, that video! Just awesome! I saw it come up on FB but I thought it was the story from July being recycled.
Third, the time off. A break is definitely beneficial. I think you should do them more but plan them so you don't feel like you're screwing up. You're probably at the point and doing this long enough that you're able to manage them and get back on track. They are valuable psychologically too.

I haven't really been following the journey or miscing in the past two years. But I saw the video on ******** and had to come back here and see.
It is absolutely beyond inspirational. I haven't felt these kinds of feels in a long time.
Well done, wb, and stay strong.
(And kudos to the miscers who helped along the way.)
Most people's linkedin profile's "people who inspire you" have the likes of Richard Brandson, Steve Jobs etc. Do those people really inspire you on a deep level? Nah, only one for me is Jesse Shand <3 (nohomer)Attempting to make it with spinal osteo-arthritis

Jesse, are you at a weight now where you'd be comfortable having sex? There are a couple full service strip clubs on 8 Mile that might be solid places to knock the cobwebs off.....

This is my first post. I have been a lurker around here for quite some time but WB I decided I had to make a profile just to say this. This is amazing. I stumbled upon this and on the BB home page and found myself skimming the threads from the beginning to now, following your progress. It's amazing and congrats on all of this. Keep up the insane work. I wish I was here from the beginning. I would have liked to take part in everything that was done to help, but right now all I have are words. Again, amazing work man, keep it going. Its no longer just for you, its for everyone here. You're an inspiration.
