    I lost so far 180 lbs, rode a roller coaster for the first time in forever, I got a new job where I make more money and am appreciated, shop at a regular store instead of a fat man store, but I would say the best thing is the way I changed how I view food.

    1. Getting a job that is a perfect fit for my career right now.
    2. My Dad recovering from cancer
    3. Finding MFP

    Not necessarily in that order...

    I wore a bikini in public and was more muscular than I've ever been in my entire 32 years of life.

    I maintain that the highlight of this year was getting a question right at trivia night.. the questing being "this is the start of what song" with the beginning sound of a guitar, nothing else. and I answered correctly Fight For Your Right To Party - Beastie Boys.
    Seriously.
    :laugh:

    But yeah, maybe finding my niche with a good teacher and a good group at work? that could be it.
