I hit the 25 mark!

Vick_MN

I'm sorry happy. This morning when I weighed in I have officially lost 25 pounds. I've been using MFP for almost exactly 3 months so I am very happy with my progress. The last 5 pounds were hard because I hit a little plateau but now that the weather has warmed up a bit, I've been able to change up my exercise routine and started walking outside and biking to work. I still have a really long way to go but I am so happy with how far I have already come. I've never stuck to any program for this long and now, it isn't really like I have to stick to it because eating well, logging my food and exercising have all become routine and just a normal part of my life. That is why I am going to be able to continue on and hopefully lose the next 25 pounds by August 1st. I also want to thank all of you because the Community part of MFP really gives me the motivation to hang in there. All of your stories, struggles and questions really help me out.

Congrats Vick! That's awesome. Hopefully us Minnesotans will get good weather tomorrow for Easter (assuming that you are from MN as well from your screen name).

I am from south central Minnesota. It sure would be nice to have sun and actually break into the 50's or even 60's!

well done!
25lbs is almost 2stone (UK measurement) which is a lot to lose in 3 months
Hope I am as successful

Congratulations on hitting your mark of 25 pounds. Taking weight loss in small increments makes it feel not so overwhelming! Good job and keep up the good work!
