One year ago today - lots of pics

A year ago today I was at the heaviest weight I'd been for the third time in my life. At 320 I was unhappy and unhealthy. My wife and I had tried to lose weight in the past, some attempts some what successful and some not so successful. The South Beach Diet was successful twice, but our cravings for those foods that we had cut out proved to be too great. We would start cheating on the diet, eventually falling completely back into our old eating habbits. We decided this year was going to be different. We were going to find a way to cut back calories. I mentioned this to a friend of mine at work, and he suggested me to look into this site. Well 367 days later, 2012 was a leap year, here I am. Of course this isn't all just because of MFP, but I know that without the diary and being consistant with my tracking we would not have been successful. I've lost 113 lbs, I'm down from 320 - 207, I've been as low as 204. I've gone from a pant size of 44 to 34, and they are falling off of me now too. I went from tight xxxl to a lose xl, Large in some polos.
I champion this site to everyone I know. Several friends have signed up, but without consistancy I've seen them fail. This takes commitment, and you have to be absolutely ready to change to make it work. I wish you all the best of luck, and look forward to seeing all of your success as well.
