Hey everyone. I turned 45 yesterday and I feel I can now say I am at goal weight. I lost 112 pounds in exactly one year on MFP. No surgery, no special programs, just healthy diet and exercise. I have struggled the last 4 1/2 months to lose another 10 pounds but it's not budging and after talking with 3 of my doctors I have determined that I am at goal. Sure I am not where I thought my ideal weight would be when I started but I'm certainly in a smaller size of clothes, I can see muscle tone, I am fit, I can out run my kids. I'm going to slowly move on into maintenance and enjoy where I am. If those last 10 come off in time, then fine, if not, I'm really in a good spot. Here's some pictures of my progress. There is also a link on my profile to more before and afters.

    That's wonderful! I understand about the last 10 lbs. I am the same. Weight has not moved for over 6 months but like you I am in a good place in my life so I don't fret about it. You have come a long way. Congrats!
  • You look so terrific! What a great accomplishment

    Congrats on your success, you look awesome! Forget that number you think the scale should read. I think we all have a 'goal weight' but that might not really be our ideal weight. :)
  • wow you are such an inspiration to all of us looking to loose triple figure pounds!!!
