I've lost my first 10 lbs since joining MFP!!!:happy: :drinker: :happy: A few years ago, I was 215 lbs and lost 25 lbs using Weight Watchers. After that initial loss, I didn't try very hard anymore and stayed at 190 for another few years (lucky I didn't gain it back). A friend told me about this site and as of June 8th, I became a member and have lost 11 lbs since joining. I'm down to 179!!! I haven't seen a number that low in years! While I'm still not at my goal, I know I'll reach it with the support and motivation I've found on this site. I just wanted to share, and thank you all!!! :happy: :flowerforyou: :happy:

    Thanks again, everyone!!! Congrats to you all too!!! Maybe I'll post another thread when I reach my halfway point (11.5 more) and I encourage you all to do the same. This has been a great boost for my morale!!!

    Only one more pound and you'll be there!!:happy: Congrats on passing the halfway point!!! Technically, I have passed my halfway point if you count that I was 215 about 5 years ago, but not my halfway point since joining MFP.. Either way, I feel great!!!
