It took one full year but I made it to my goal

My starting weight was 163 lbs at my heaviest. I'm 5'7" and I lost the weight slowly over a year eating at a slight calorie deficit and doing yoga and some weight training, I gave running a try and found that I did not like it. If you don't like it you won't stick with it. Find some thing you love, Ilove yoga and kettle bells! Thats what worked for me.

I'm still working out and eating at maintenance now and couldn't be happier with my new look.

Tanks MFP friends that pushed me this year!
