My 1 year anniversary!!!! 93 pounds GONE.

Exactly a year ago today, I decided enough was enough. I was 23 years old and overweight my entire life. On January 7th, 2012, I set out to complete what seemed like an impossible task--to lose weight and make fitness/health a priority in my life. Though it has been challenging, it has easily been the best decision I have ever made and I have never looked back. I don't often post in the forums but I wanted to share my excitement over today being my 1 year anniversary of changing my lifestyle and losing weight! I have much more energy now and feel that my health has improved drastically. I am not finished yet but am happy with the progress so far. I am really thankful for all of my MFP friends and this process would be SO much harder without them--thank you guys! <3 Here are a couple of photos from my journey.

Height: 5'2"

Starting weight: 244.4 lbs

Current weight: 151.4 lbs

Goal weight: 120 lbs


At my heaviest, 244.4 lbs--

    You look wonderful. I'm so happy for you. One year and 93 pounds that's awesome.
  • Wow! Simply amazing! You look fabulous. Congratulations! I am 5' 3/12" and my weight seems to stick right to my hips, buttocks and thighs. Are you eating journals available to look at to get an idea how you are eating? You are an inspiration!
