It was April 2012 and a friends daughter's 18th birthday party that spurred me into losing weight. I was a hefty 18st plus and was blind to the fact that I was a (UK) dress size 22-24... I couldn't find anything I wanted to wear to the party and ended up feeling old, fat and miserable.
I managed to lose a couple of stone on weightwatchers and discovered MFP last year. It was MFP that really spurred me on. I now weigh 13st 7lb and am working hard on losing the last 30lb I want to lose.
Since I started my healthy living plan I have set myself various 'mini goals' to continue to work hard. These have included quitting smoking (tick), walking 5 miles in less than 70 minutes (tick), joining a gym (tick), starting to run (tick), running 1 mile (tick), running a 5k in less than 40mins (tick), lifting more weight (tick) and I plan to challenge myself more..!
Here are some pictures that show my progress
