I respect jason_paloalto perspective but I think this oversimplifies things a bit. Re: Marathon PR after 80 lbs — the effect size varies considerably by population.

Reading this thread on Marathon PR after 80 lbs hits close to home. Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 293 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.

9 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 68 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
