Well I haven't posted a success story yet so I figured now would be a good time on my progress. I started my journey a little over 2 years ago. Didn't take it really serious for the first year and a half. I don't know what happened but after that year and a half of just messing around I started to take my weight loss more serious. I wouldn't say I found true success until I found MFP and started to track my calories and really start to put research into my lifestyle change. I started tracking my calories and found a wonderful discussion group where I have met an awesome group of ladies who have become my weight loss sisters. They are more supportive then I could of ever imagined people I didn't even know could be! So here I am 50 pounds lighter and have never felt better! I have never in my life felt as good as I do now and I'm not even done on my journey. I'm 5 pounds away from my halfway point..
Please excuse the mirror picture, I live alone and had nobody to take a picture for me! :laugh:
261 pounds
Taken last night 210.4 pounds

It's a little weird to be so proud of a person I've never met. :laugh:

I have been craving M&Ms for a few days now. Argh! :laugh: 0 -
So amazingly proud of you! You look FANTASTIC and happiness really does exude from your body. Totally agree with LittleSpy, "It's a little weird to be so proud of a person I've never met."0
