Better Days are Shining Through, with pics.

This is an update to this thread, http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/660494-i-took-a-wrong-turn-and-i-just-kept-going-with-pic which explained a little of how I ended up where I did. There were circumstances which took me to the place I ended up in but circumstances are not excuses, just challenges that need to be overcome.

I have now lost over 100 pounds, 30% of the weight I started this journey at, and getting closer to my goal. Life is great again and I'm enjoying actually living it instead of wasting it away. So much so that there sometimes just aren't enough hours in the day. If you are on here you want to change so stick with it, sure there will be slip ups and bad days but trust me the rewards are more than worth every little bit of effort. The pictures below are from last week when I hit 101 pounds, I've since lost another pound which is why the ticker says different to the pic.Although there are obvious changes in the pics the biggest changes are all those you can't see, they are the ones in my head and in many ways they are just as important, if not more so than the shed pounds. I'm continuing this journey to become, fitter and stronger as I get older and to continue to become the person I want to be and I want to thank my MFP friends for their support, encouragement and the inspiration they freely provide on a daily basis.
