Started my weight loss journey in March using Weight Watchers but ended switching over to MFP in August. Combined I have lost almost 45lb and some inches. I started my 9th try losing weight and I think I finally found my stride. Since 2005 I have been either heavy or chunky and never lost any weight. Since then I have had two kids via C-Section and added more weight on top of it all. Also, hindering me, I have hypothyroidism (had since birth).

When I reached my ultimate highest weight at 304.2 I decided that I have had enough. I started WW and lost about 17lb or so. In August I came accross this site, thanks to a friend on facebook, and lost almost 3lb with in 4 days. Since then I have tried to log in and record my food daily. Since starting almost 12 weeks ago I have lost another 24 lb.

Even though my story is far, far from over I have accomplished alot through dedication, perseverance, hard work, will power, and my amazing friends and family on MFP.
Pictures are my before and during. (HOPING THIS WORKS..... PROBABLY WONT)
