After using MFP on and off over the past couple years, I finally feel like I'm getting a proper handle on my weight loss and general health.

After a long winter full of going out to restaurants and drinking too much beer, this past May I reached the heaviest I have ever been, and I immediately started to work to change that.

I don't know what exactly has changed but my attitude going into it this time is so much different and instead of just restricting my calories I've been really focusing on eating the right foods and getting enough excersize.

Feeling pretty good having lost 16 pounds over the summer, and will be running my first ever 10k this September. (I initially had decided to run a 5k, but I've been making great progress so I think 10k is the way to go for this one).
I haven't been killing myself and stressing out about my weight ever day this time around, and I think that has a lot to do with my current success. That being said I still have a way to go, so feel free to add me and we can keep each other motivated!
