Woah! That's quite the achievement! Congrats!! Im 5'7" and never weighed more than 150 lbs so I guess I've had a much easier time than you did. But I also have been doing intermittent fasting since I was 18(30 now), I think that's the main reason my weight never went higher than 150lbs even though I always ate whatever I liked.

Good point - I think I could have saved myself from 3 shoulder surgeries if I would have had a more anti-inflammatory diet like you did. Osteo-arthritis basically destroyed the cartilage in both shoulders...I do a decent amount of collagen/glycine supplementation now, but it was the elimination of food choices that turned the corner.
