A big thanks to Dale Dudley for the support and for linking to this site on his twitter and facebook accounts.
For those of you who are new, my name is Ricky Lawson, and, to date, I’ve lost over 90 pounds. I began as an intern at the Dudley and Bob show in Austin, TX, and I was in the worst shape of my life. I weighed in at around 370, and my diet was a fast-food paradise of fried food and over-eating. After a few weeks, I got an offer from Dale to try his personal trainers at the amazing Workshop Fitness, an opportunity that fundamentally changed my life. (www.workshopfitnessaustin.com)
My six trainers, Thomas Huisking, Diana Haggerty, Mariesa Osterhaus, Jason Miller, Christine Tusa, and Paul Hedrick are fantastic and dedicated people.
After the first month I had lost 19 pounds and almost 18 inches off my body. The next month showed similar results, and the trainers decided it was in everyone’s best interest to continue pushing forward with my training. Where we stand today I have lost over 90 pounds and around 60 inches off my body. I stand at the halfway point ready to tell more stories of my past, share my recent success stories and conquer some new goals. I would not be where I am without the support of the wonderful people in my life. A big ‘thank you’ to the people at the Dudley and Bob Show, all my trainers, Workshop Fitness and to all of my friends and family who have loved and cared about me through all of this.
Please, keep reading. I love to hear from any and everyone. Here’s to another 90 pounds.

Ricky I am so proud of you! You are and have always been an amazing person. No matter what size you are, it has truly been shining through. I just want you to know that no matter how rarely we talk or see each other, I am very grateful to have you as a friend. I spent many of my best childhood years growing up with you and wouldn't change it for anything. Keep up the good work!!
