When I first started MFP I was at 130 lbs..this is what I would like to call my umm "trigger" weight. I never allow myself to get any heavier. My goal was to get to 120 aka the weight I was my senior year in high school and the weight I was before I started dating my current diet-sabatoging boyfriend :wink: ! So for the past week and a half or so the scale has been reading 119.8 or some numbers around there..so its official, I have met my original goal! For some reason however, I don't feel as happy as I thought I would be so I lowered my goal to 115. Its just amazing though because before MFP I would try to lose weight and get to about 124-125 and always always plateau! I also began posting on the Runner's Club forum..it got me really addicted to running and I am almost positive that my consistent running and the amazing support from that group :bigsmile: had something to do with my loss as well! This site is amazing and really helps me track everything I do and eat! I hope to reach 115 by the time I have to get my license renewed in Sept..it would be cool for my new license to read 115 lbs! Haha I'm a dork.

Anyways just wanted to share my little story and thank everyone on here..you guys rock! I love MFP!

    in your profile pics you have a split screen with what your current weight vs. goal weight would look like. do you mind me asking where i would find that?

    I went to mvm.com and just saved both the pics onto my computer and edited them into one pic and added the text using paint.

    congrats. i was looking at your profile, and it seemed like you're losing weight every week or every other week and fast. what type of exercises do you do? i really want to lose weight, but at times it seems like its hard.
