Little bit about me I suppose...I'm 25 years old. I have been over weight for nearly all of my life and obese for pretty much all of my adult life. I started of MFP in April of 2012. Best decision I ever made. My heaviest weight was 268...I started MFP at 258. This site...and my overall switch in mindset and lifestyle changed me completely. The biggest change for me, was the fact that I started to exercise regularly. I found that when I worked out I felt 100% better that day...and it didn't hurt that it meant I was able to eat a bit more too 
I have done everything at home...no gym at all. I started off with Jillian Micheals and her wonderful collection of dvds 
going from 30 Day Shred...to Ripped in 30....and so on. Did her HardBody dvd in Aug-Sept of this year and loved that! Just recently started Focus T25...which is a Shaun T workout. I have had good results with that as well. I think I needed a switch up from my old routine of JM...it helped to jump start my body again Exercise is a huge part of my life now. I never ever in a million years thought I would say that but it does so much for the body...physically and mentally! I have learned so much about myself over the past year and a half. All of my relationships in my life have improved because I have something I never had before "self-respect & self-worth". I feel fit and strong now, physically and mentally strong. I don't really know what it was that got me to where I am today...but what I do know is it has to be a change that happens because you want it...it's for YOU! You look in the mirror at yourself everyday...you live with yourself...if you want this, do this for you If you believe in yourself and you are truthful with yourself you will succeed! Best of luck to all! Here's some pics...
Me at my heaviest 268lbs
Me at 250lbs+...and Me recently 168lbs
Me on my honeymoon (260ish)...Me around March 2013 (190's)
Me during...around 190lbs
ME NOW
This was taken recently...my family...I'm in the front laying down with the white sweatshirt
And just one more quick thing...We all have bad days, or bad weekends...maybe even weeks. But DO NOT let that define you. That was always my mistake in the past...it was so easy to do badly and give up. But giving up is not an option...have a few bad days...sure...but from there you realize it and you move on. In a much better direction, and a bit stronger at that! Thanks for reading

THIS has encouraged me! I am on my 2nd round losing weight again after a stressful 6months. I gained 19lbs and I am determined to lose 50lbs by April 1st. Going to the gym 6 days a week to start then when I start losing more and more, maybe I'll slack down to 5...

This girl rocks. She is a MFP friend and is religious about logging her diet and exercise and is helping me to be that way as well as I am at the beginning of my life transformation.
KT is positive and assuring.
Great things are in store: a longer, less troubled life, happiness, health and the ability to take on any task are just a few things!0 -
