It can be done!!! 456 pounds to 199!

Options
Hi all,

I just joined MFP a while back. I was on weight watchers and am now trying calorie counting. Weight Watchers gave me the tools to learn how to eat right.

I just wanted to post here so anyone who may be struggling can see that anything is possible!!!!

I started my journey January 3rd, 2011. I weighed in at 456 pounds. Today I weigh 199!!!

So if you are having troubles, DO NOT GIVE UP!!!! You can do it!

You can read about my journey at www.borgiesjourney.com
