There and back and here again!

This isn't my first rodeo with MFP.

It all started when I was approaching my third year in college wearing a size 16 jeans, feeling sorry for myself and in denial about my lack of confidence. After successfully losing about 40 pounds, I felt fantastic!


Years later, I dove deep into a personal depression about life and not knowing where I wanted to be. Thus, the weight creeped back up to a hefty 165 pounds. I did not look nor feel beautiful.

Thanks to willpower, science, and the support here on MFP, I am now at a healthy 128 pounds.

I learned to create goals around measurements, not weight. Attitude, not other's perception of me. Happiness, not baggy clothing. I maintain a low carbohydrate diet with plenty of water and vegetables-- couldn't be happier!
