in Success Stories
This will probably be my ultimate "success" story post :smile: I've had a couple of highlight moments along the way, but today I realized that even if I don't lose the last few pounds on my ticker, I've hit my true goals.

I started off at 210 lbs, I am now 180 lbs. For the first few months, I lost weight, then I would maintain for a while, then I would gain some pounds back, and then lose them again. I was always in limbo.

These past few months, however, my attitude COMPLETELY CHANGED! I come from a family plagued with diabetes and weight problems. While I knew I was at risk, I didn't think about it. I ate whatever and whenever I wanted to. While I still had fun and felt happy, I knew I wasn't really HEALTHY.

This summer, things changed. I have a completely new healthy lifestyle. I've become a stronger more dedicated version of the girl I used to be. And I would NEVER have made it without my MFP support team. So this isn't JUST my success story, it's theirs too.

READY FOR THE PICS??????????????????? :happy:

that is the difference just 30 lbs can make. some of you have bigger goals, some of you have smaller goals. but whatever you are working towards, remember, it's not just about "being skinny", or looking "hot" or "sexy". It's about being the BEST YOU CAN BE physically, emotionally, spiritually.

can't wait to see YOUR success :smile:

    AWESOME JOB! You look great!!! I'm glad that you pointed out that healthy is not about being a certain weight. It's about how you feel, eating habits, etc. I can't wait to post similar pics! Great job again!

    wow! I too have lost 30 lbs and still have a ways to go. Your photos inspired me...people say I look different but it's hard to see it when you see yourself in the mirror every single day. Nice work!!

    you look great, congrats!!

    have to say, I looked at the pics before I read the post and would have guessed you went from maybe 150 to 120! Also, I love before & afters where the pose is the same, so much easier to see the differences! :)
