Hi all!

Just wanted to say i love MFP. I honestly never thought it would be so easy to lose weight. Anyway, I'm halfway to my goal!

I started at 148 lbs. Unhealthy, just eating anything and not paying attention to what i was putting in my body.

Now I'm at 137 lbs! I'm halfway to my goal of 125 lbs. I feel so much healthier, I have more energy and even my skin has cleared up!

    I'm 5'5. I didn't really have an exercise routine, I did cardio (elliptical,treadmill,walking) as often as I could. I really just focused on my calorie intake, started at 1310 then decreased to 1270. I also eat fruit everyday, and drink lots of water. It took about 45 days to lose 11 pounds, but my guess is that a few of those pounds were just water weight lol.
