I have been with MFP for exactly one year today. I have lost 40 lbs since then and I will not be going back to that weight EVER again!! I had no set goal in mind when I started so I think I'm in a good place. In the past year I have learned more about food and how it is not a vice and the I can't depend on it to make me "feel better".
I have been more physically active. I bought a new mountain bike this year and used it almost every weekend. On June 6 of this year I ran my first mile EVER not even in high school had I ever run a mile. Running became my new pleasure. I never knew it could feel so good. On September 9 again of the past year I ran my first 5k. A 5K never in my life would I have thought I would do that or that I would WANT to..
I make better choices and I'm happier today. My plans for this year are to continue my journey and to lose more weight again nothing set in stone.
Have a healthy and safe New Year and good luck
