in Introduce Yourself
its 2013, i'm 22 and in the prime of my life. I've done MFP before but never truly interacted with fellow MFP'ers until now. I would love the support and encouragement from all of you lovely people :)


I was looking at old pictures recently, when it hit me. Over the course of the last 4 years I had gained weight and put on more than I had realized. it's time for a change!!

What made you realize it was time to lose weight?

    A combination of things really. On the physical appearance side it was a family picture my in-laws took over the summer, where I look like the goddamn Michelin man. On the health side, my cholesterol went from 109 to nearly 250 in the course of 5 years. On the fitness side I went from doing 6 martial arts classes a week to being out of breath running for my daughter's school bus.

    So I started trying to drop the weight at the beginning of September. 30 pounds down, at least another 20 to go!
