    It is so awesome to see others who have taken this weight loss jouney and suceeded so triumphantly! My story is similar to yours (besides the gender, medical issues, and such lol) I took up mountain biking on June 1, 2011 and cut the calories. Had to stop eating so much fast food, processed food and FAT! I Started using MFP about a week after my journey began and it has been the catalyst! 8 1/2 months later, I am 72 pounds lighter and training for my first TRIATHALON!! You are an inspiration, and I hope it helps others to realize their weight loss goals... and understand they ARE possible, and it is worth every bit of effort!

    You're progress is amazing. I was just wondering...do you feel different? I know that you probably physically feel different, but what changes have you seen in your mentality and emotional side? I think one of the biggest obstacles for dieters is their brain. Self doubt and loathing can be very powerful hinderances to our goals. Would you share a self image, physically and mentally, profile of yourself before and after?

    Words alone cannot express how proud I am to be your friend. You are the first person who "friended" me on MFP. I had reached my goal by the time I found MFP, but you inspired me to kick it up a notch or two. Our journeys were similar. I averaged 3.21 pounds per week weight loss and had no plateaus. The last 10 pounds were slower and the hardest to lose but your KICK BUTT workouts inspired me to push myself onward to victory. Thanks, Jeff!

    You help me each and every day to keep the weight lost off. I will be celebrating keeping it off 2 years March 5th. I have you especially to thank for giving me that extra incentive.

    I love your pictures! You look so much younger, healthy, and fabulous today! Congratulations!!

    Wow!! What an inspiration!! I've struggled with my weight my entire life. I've gained weight, lost it, gained it back, lost it again.....I know I can lose it but my problem is getting too comfortable, and getting lazy with my workouts and eating habits. I think the hardest part is staying motivated, and balancing it all out with an already busy life. Thanks for the pictures, you look great!! And the best of luck to you in your future!
