edited January 4 in Success Stories
Today is day 365 of MFP, in my time here I have lost 85lb (average 1.6lb per week) I'm about 48lb away from where I think my UGW should be.
SW: 272.8-ish (depending on which scales you go off, I changed my scales last December and they said different to the others!)
CW:188
Height: 5ft 4.5

I haven't really changed too much about my lifestyle, I TRY to eat healthier than before and SOMETIMES I exercise (not often enough). My biggest change has been sodium. I no longer add salt to anything and do my best to stay under 1800 a day.
This is 1 month before I started on MFP:

    Very nice transformation. I avoid sodium also. It makes such a huge difference. I also found that going dairy free got rid of a lot of excess fluid I was carrying around.

    I hope the next 12 months sees you meeting your goal. Good luck.

    You look amazing! Congrats on job well done. It is encouraging to see you still eat "normal" because that is what I'm trying for myself. If I don't do it that way, it seems more like a "diet".

    Again,,,,,,GREAT JOB!!!!
