A before and after photo of a 6'3" male showing a weight reduction from 300 pounds to 198 pounds. A respectable loss of 102 pounds.
(M/22/6'3") 300 > 198 = 102. Last year I put on my dads jacket from when he was 17 to illustrate how tiny my dad was. A couple days ago I put the same jacket on to illustrate how small I am now. My dad is only 5'6" so the jacket still doesn't fit, but look at that difference.
