I joined one year ago today, and have lost over 25 pounds! Thank you, thank you, MFP!
I wasn't losing any weight with exercise alone, and using MFP has really re-taught me how to eat. I also have hypothyroidism, so this might have made achieving my goals harder. But thanks to MFP, zumba, swim, and kickboxing, I feel 1,000 times better!

One year ago, and today:

    You are beautiful! Congratulations on such a positive life change. My one-year MFP anniversary is tomorrow (2/25/2014), and I have lost a similar amount of weight. Your comments are so true--MFP is definitely a tool to change your life.

    Happy Anniversary :0)

    Awesome work!!! You should be so proud of yourself! Fighting against hormones is rough. I have PCOS, and it's a constant struggle. Very inspirational.

    Thank you, Zombiemomjo! I hope your PCOS gets better. It's hard when your body works against you.
