83 lbs lost! Hit a major goal!!

Hi! I started MFP on January 3rd. I weighed 333lbs. I had a trip to Disney World planned for early October. (My 4 year olds first trip!) I told myself I wanted to be 250lbs by then. Today I stepped on the scale just for fun (I usually only weigh myself on Saturdays) and lo and behold I hit 250lbs! I'm so happy! I know I have a ways to go still, but this just makes me smile! Thanks MFP!

    go you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Wondering. . . How did you stay motivated?

    Honestly, I was motivated at first by the weight coming off, then around 65lbs I platuead a bit for a while and it got very difficult, But I kept pusing thru and added more working out and it started coming off again! Some days I have to force myself to work out, but I always feel better when I do!
  • You will be soooo much happier at Disney, believe me it's hard when you cant do what you want (I fell and injured my knee a month before i went, walking was torture!!!)

    I've been plateaued for months right at 65-70 lbs loss and feeling frustrated. This reminds to just keep at it and it'll kick back in...

    You should feel so proud of yourself, you're doing fantastic! Thanks for sharing.
