Been on My fitness pal for a while but just got into it.

SO I signed up forever ago but never really took interest in it. Today I decided to introduce myself. I started out in January at 252 and now I am down to 228.8. I am super excited about what I have already lost but I am even more excited to see where I go! I just got a MTB last night and I am ready for our weather to warm up so my husband and I can get out and ride.

I will give you a little background on me. I have been on the bigger side since I was around 12 years old. I hit my biggest when I was with my ex husband and said I would never get that big again! I met my awesome hubby about a year after my ex and I divorced and we have been together for almost 7 years. He is extremely supportive but doesn't quite understand. He has NEVER been big. He barely weighs over 100 lbs and can eat whatever he wants and never gain. Since we have been together I have gained around 70 lbs. I felt unattractive and just bad not to mention I hit that mark I said I would never hit again at the end of Dec. 2013 and said NOPE not gonna do it. So I went to the grocery and bought all good foods. I changed everything. I even quit putting creamer in my coffee which took a while to get used to. I have lost a total of 23.4 lbs and around 12 total inches. I feel better and can do more without feeling as tired as before. I am very determined and my ultimate goal is 160-170lbs that's 80-90 lbs. But I am going to do it with 10lb mini goals. I can't wait to see what this year brings and I am glad to start it here. Add me as a buddy if you have a similar goal!
