Just wanted to share a NSV. I have been back on MFP for 70 days today. I have lost 9.6 lbs so far. I know not a lot in that amount of time but I am wanting to lose it slowly this time so it will stay off. I have NOT had ANY kind of soda for 45 days and have been doing Zumba two times a week for five weeks now. I am so proud of myself. I was drinking at a minimum 4 cans of REGULAR soda a day and not exercising at all. I feel a lot better about myself and can only imagine how I will feel when I get to a healthy BMI. That is my ultimate goal.

    You are taking the pounds off and that's wonderful, no matter the time frame! My husband lost a similar amount and he thought it wasn't a big deal until I handed him a 10 lb. weight and had him hold it up for a couple minutes...then he realized just how much lighter he actually was! So each day will get you moving toward better health and is a mini-victory. As we all know, time will pass no matter what you do, so isn't it better to use that time to improve your life and health?
