Hi Everyone!

I have offically lost 100 lbs!!! Yay!

I began my weight loss journey a few years ago. I lost 92 pounds by watching what I ate and power walking around the neighborhood. After about a year and a half, I got lazy, ate too much and gained about 30 pounds. Somewhere in there my father passed away, I quit drinking and quit smoking (STRESSFUL). I knew that I did not want to gain all that weight back. I stumbled across MFP app on my phone about 2 1/2 months ago. What an easy program to follow!!! I eat whatever I want (within reason) and just stay within my daily calorie goal. I have lost 37 pounds on MFP. As of 6/11/11, I reached a major goal of losing 100 pounds!

Not only have I lost weight but the wonderful people on the MFP message boards have inspired me to do C25K. There is no way in the world I ever thought I could run for 1 minute (let alone 5). I did w4 d1 yesterday! I have also been going to the gym about 5 days a week, cardio and weight lifting.

Thanks everyone here for all the inspiration and I hope that my pictures and story will inspire someone else!
