When I decided to make a change back in November 2014, I had to get my mind right. I had to have a plan and what I was going to do!

My initial plan was to just reduce my portions, incorporate exercise, and see what happens.

I started on Jan 5...then on Jan 12, I found MFP!

MFP is a game changer!!

It allowed me to actually see what I was doing and how to fix it.

Since I started, I have continued to eat whatever I want, just smaller portions than I normally would and I have incorporated healthier options.

The Result?! 30.5lb weight loss!!

My goal is to lose 85lbs by Oct 14, 2015. I am currently on track to lose 100lbs!!!

HAPPY TRANSFORMATION!

    I have just about the same plan! 104lbs in 52 weeks, started 10th jan 2015. I have lost 32lbs so far but 17 was in the first two weeks and after that, its been more gradual. I hope that things continue to go so well for you. Keep us updated!

    2015 is our year :)

    Ms. Magoo, Good luck on your journey!!!

    I think the best thing is that you're doing it with your husband and you can cook the same. The only difference is that he's going to get to eat more calories...I'm guessing.

    Just keep each other honest with the food and support and motivate each other and you'll kill it!!!

    Good luck to both of you!
