I thought it was time I posted my story as I've been feeling quite low recently and thought this might make me realise how far I have come.

I have been big/chubby for as long as I can remember but the weight really piled on when I was at university. My highest weight was 187 and through mainly diet but also moving more I have got down to 117.

I'm between 5ft 2 and 5ft 3 btw

Before:

    Aw thanks :) It took me about a year and a half but that includes falling off the wagon a few times. I just tried to stick to my calorie goal on mfp most days and walked places that I used to take the bus, that's it :D

    Thanks for answering! The MFP calorie goal is so handy, I'm just starting to regularly track on it now so hopefully that'll keep me accountable. Your weight loss is amazing, congratulations again!

    Since I am going through a rough patch right now, the fact that you 'fell off the wagon" a few times is really important for me to know. Also to see that you didn't over complicate the exercise. It's easy for me to get totally overwhelmed by my perceived failures on here. Thank-you. Thank-you. Thank-you!!!
