I am happy to say that I have reached my mini-goal of losing 50lbs by my 40th birthday. Today is my birthday and I am officially down 51 pounds – not too bad. I started on MFP on May 9th of this year and I have to say that I am so happy that I found this site. The support, encouragement, and friendships that I’ve made along the way have been so helpful in getting me to this point. Thank you to everyone! I included some progress to show how I’ve far I’ve come to this point. I know I still have a LOT of work to do and LOTs of pounds to lose but it feels good to acknowledge my accomplishments so far. My next mini goal is to be at my half point by Halloween!
This me on April 30, 2011. Seeing this pic made me finally realize it was time to get started.
These next 2 are from today.

I love reading these success stories. I wish I could succeed. I have been soooo faithful for 4 weeks now. I weighed in today for the first time. I lost 2 lbs. I thought there must be some kind of mistake. I re-weighed. No mistake. Now my clothes are fitting much better, but what about the pounds? I weighed 270 lbs a month ago and I'm only down 2 lbs! I'm 64 so my metabolism has really slowed down. My knees hurt so I don't exercise although I've got more energy now than I had a month ago . Someone give me some hope.
