I don't have a picture from when I started using MFP in January. I lost 130 pounds before I ever heard of this site and was putting it back on to the point that I regained about 50 pounds. A local weather man wrote an about losing lose 60 pounds by using MFP in a Health and Fitness edition of the free throw-away paper. I tried it and I am loving it. I've lost 85 pounds since January 9 and 170 pounds since May 2008. Here are some before and now pics:
