    Wow, amazing! I will be celebrating breaking the 200 mark, as well--my heaviest was 217 in December of 2011. Last July I was down to about 202 but then I got a new job, put on some more pounds, and stepped away from MFP for a while. Now I'm back at MFP, and I'm at 205, so I'm hoping by this time next month I'll be celebrating getting back into the 100s, too!

    I'm not going to get too detailed because if I did, this could go on forever...so... I'm 24 years old and have been obese pretty much all of my adult life. My heaviest weight ever known to me was 268lbs. I started MFP at 258lbs. I am now 199lbs! I have lost a total of nearly 70lbs! (69lbs) I have never felt more powerful! I still have quite a way to go but I know I will get there. For all those curious, or just starting this journey I'll let you know that there was no real secret for me. I just recorded my food, tried my hardest to stay under my calorie allowance for the day, and worked out. I really enjoy my Jillian Michaels DVDs :) I had my days where I didn't do so well but I never gave up. I just realized that I truly am worth it! I'm not perfect, but I do have the ability to succeed! Good luck to everyone on this journey! You are worth it!
