My second attempt at a healthy life is now in full swing. I originally joined MFP in 2011 weighing in at 665lbs. Through hard work and the great support here, I lost 285lbs in just over 2 years! Then, like many others, I became complacent. I achieved goals I set out for myself such as meeting someone, getting a job, staying active, etc. I quit what got me there and gained over 150lbs of what I lost back. Long story short, I'm refocused and ready to restart. I've dropped nearly 70lbs since September and ready to finally do what is needed to reach my goal weight and a healthy life beyond. Feel free to add me and we'll fight this fight together!
