hey everyone. just wanted to share my success story.heres a little bit about myself. im 24yrs old, 5'4 1/2. ive been using MFP since November 2011, and have managed to loose about 31lbs. My Start weight was 176lbs and ive have reached my goal weight of 145lbs. now that im at my goal weight i plan on trying to loose at least 10 lbs more, just because those thighs and love handles like to stick around. i lost my weight by sticking to 1200 cals as much as i could, as well as trying to get at least 250cals excersise mon-fri and at least 1000 sat&sun. it all started with walking over an hour everyday!

Congratulations! Love that you wore similar clothing for your comparison photos. You look FANTASTIC! Just weighed in with a 10+ lbs loss. Now worried if I can lose the next 10 lbs (need to lose at least 53lbs to be in the healthy range for BMI).
Any advice? Did you ever feel anxious you might not lose more, or that you'll gain back what you worked hard to lose? What should I tell myself? What did you do?0 -

honestly for the first few months i was very anxious about everything. i would eat like a rabbit and would get no where. I found that just making sure i got those calories for the day and at least getting some sort of excersise just gave me so much more energy and power to go on. during those weeks when i didnt loose anything or very little i would always look at my comparison pictures to boost my confidence...nothing better than seeing that at least your better off than before. I also have a favorite quote that kept me happy and going "its not about how far you have to go rather how far youve come". I just love that quote! and i am afraid that i may gain it back one day, but now I have a better understanding of what I feel like and look like at different weights so I know i dont want to go back over 150lbs again...if i do ill start up MFP again. anyways you are doing so excellent so far. keep it up, its so great what your doing for yourself0 -

How long did it take? Just wondering because I have the same amount of weight to lose. Currently 168ish and want to get down to 138ish.
ive been using MFP to loose for close to 150 days (so like 5 ish months)...and Christmas,new years and easter holidays were in there so it defiantly wasn't 150 days straight lol0 -
WOW! Nice work...so inspirational. You go!!0

You look wonderful! Just curious, did you eat back any/half/all of your exercise calories? I like comparing what people do
Also, hope I look like you when I get to that weight0 -

THANKS :) I have to say I barely ever ate back my exercise calories. The only time i would is when I would burn 2000 in a day where i was hiking or snowboarding. My body would just get so hungry and I could tell. so I would eat maybe 500-800cals more on those days...0 -
Congrats! You look great! Good luck with the next 10 pounds! :drinker:0
