GOODBYE fat section!!
Today was like the first day in my life that I have shopped in the regular section of a store. I bought two pairs of pants in a size 16 and a XL shirt. I didn't even step foot into the plus-size section! I'm soooo happy! Now to get into the teen or junior sections!

My Update
These are my first updated photos. I don't see a difference when I look in the mirror yet, but others do. Probably because I am a pessimist!! First was taken earlier this year at 400 plus pounds.... And this is now, at 370. I still have a long way to go, but I know I am going to get there!!! :glasses:

Fed Ex Delivery with a smile
I am an office manager and so of course we get things shipped to us alot but for some reason it is mostly from UPS. Well today we had a Fed Ex delivery and the second the guy comes in he gets this huge smile on his face and blurts out "Wow you look really different than the last time I saw you!" I told him thanks for…

The first five pounds
I weighed in this morning and stared in astonishment at a scale whose first two digits were a 1 and an 8, not a 1 and a 9. It's been several months since I saw a 1 and an 8 there! I have succeeded in taking off the first five pounds of my intended 65-pound journey, and I'm now at 189.5! I am so happy! I've been so very…

Here I am trying to get back down to 250, im slowly getting there. Im hoping while working on my weight loss I can finally get…

Made it to under 100kg
Well it's taken a while but this site really does work! I've still got some way to go, but I've been more than 100kg for over 10 years and I finally got on the scales at the gym and saw 99.1kg. Now I'm down to double digits, I'm never going back! My doctor is thrilled with my weight loss and I'm not going to stop until I…

Less than 100 pounds!!!
I had to share this with everyone because I just realized this today!!! I have less than 100 pounds to go to get to my ultimate goal and I have goosebumps just thinking about it (because I am so happy). I never ever thought this was possible but with the tools on this website and the awesome people I now know I can do this!

First Week in and down 3 lb.
Pretty happy with the lose but I can remember when I could drop 5 pounds in a week just by "kind of" watching what I ate. Now at 42 years old those days are gone!!! I was doing WW for some time but wasn't really losing, I think to many 0 or 1 point foods still add up to too many calories. Also, I really like the real…

25% to goal 1 and 20% to final goal!!!
Today I am officially 25 percent to my goal of weighing 180lbs. It has been approximately 4.5 month and I feel great. This weekend I went to buy shoes and I even went down a size. I use to be a 10W and now I am a 9.5M. Felt great about that. Today I did my best time for running 3 miles (43 mins)! Things are really…

It's official!
When I started this journey, July 26th, I set two "mini" goals that I wasn't sure were attainable. It seemed like an awful lot in too short a time. I missed the first by just 2 pounds and three days. My second mini goal was to weigh 250 on Thanksgiving. As of this mornings weigh in, I have attained that! I officially weigh…

Shaved 5 minutes from my 5k!
They didn't time us with chips, it was timed by when we crossed the finish line. Which means if you started in the front this ir probably accurate. If you started near the back (like I did) this time is slightly off. I did better than my "official time"! I felt great! I am thinking about doing a 10k for thanksgiving…

A huge win for me
I hate to toot my own horn, but this is something I just can't keep to myself. I'm still a pretty big guy at 6'-3" and around 290lbs so this wasn't an easy feat for me, but today I ran a full 60 minutes at pretty close to my normal pace ... without any walking breaks. I even still had a little kick left at the end. My…

Small Revelation Today
Mondays are check-in days for me. When I got on the scale today, the needle hadn't moved from last week. I know in previous weight-loss attempts, that would be cause for teeth gnashing. But, I know I held myself accountable for every bite and even motivated myself to exercise. So I needn't panic. It will move next week or…

NSV - Getting rid of clothes...
So, I just went through all my old fat clothes....my security blankets! I was able to fill six and a half Costco garbage bags with old clothes that are just too darn big. I'm a little apprehensive in actually getting rid of them...what if I get fat again? Granted, I've only lost 27 pounds, but I've gone from a 24 to a 20…

Over halfway to my goal
I just recently joined MFP, but I have been on the path to being happy and healthier and smaller since May 2009. I was between 350-320 something lbs at that time. I was completely in denial. One day I just decided enough was enough! I have lost about 120 lbs and struggling to find my way to my goal of 175lbs. I am more…

I felt awesome and went out and bought a coat in a smaller size! tried on some racing shirts I picked up last season that never fit me (european size 2x) while they are still snug i know it"s only a matter of time until I can fit into…
