    I am completely inspired by your determination. It proves "one size" does not "fit all" when it comes to diet. I am glad you took your health seriously and just got to work. You also kept it healthy by having this transformation monitored medically. It was surgical results without surgery. Keep it up. Maintenance will take that same determination, that is something I keep forgetting. But you have shown us what is possible, thank you.

    This is my story. I woke up on July 27, 2012 and decided enough is enough. I had to do something about my weight problem. I found My Fitness Plan and quickly joined the website. After that, I logged in every day and recorded my food.

    I have lost 282# in 52 weeks. I did this with no tricks, no surgery, no supplements, no energy bars or drinks, no shots just pure old fashioned willpower and exercise. I joined a gym on December 24, 2012. Currently, I am there about 4-5 times a week. I probably broke all the rules. I eat about 1,000 calories a day. I eat three times a day with snacks. I have skipped meals when I am not hungry especially on the weekends when I am busy. I weigh myself every day. I visit my personal physician every 30 days. He monitors my progress and draws blood about every 60 days.

    In the past year I haven’t had one bite of fast food, pizza, junky sweets or beer. I can’t say as I miss it. I want to lose about another 50#. I am posting this for the people out there who get discouraged or have a substantial amount to lose. You can do it. You have to be determined. Don’t get distracted by outside influences. I decided I would set aside one year of my life to really concentrate on my problem. I am 59 years old. If I can do it, you can do it. Everyone is amazed at my results. Are the results typical? I doubt it. Did I lose it too fast? The answer is probably. Are my Dr. and I pleased with the results? The answer is absolutely.

    Thank you so much for sharing!!!! This has truly inspired me! Especially when I have friends around me who have been overweight, & have lost it all due to some kind of surgery & look great! Yet, I'm here struggling day by day with it, and struggling with wanting to have surgery done myself (although my husband is totally against it)... It has been a slow process for me, which I have given up, every other month b/c my results aren't fast enough... However, your story has opened my eyes to maybe I didn't do it whole heartedly, and that if I jump in 100%, I, too, can have amazing results like you. Kudos to you! You have done great!
