in Success Stories
This is a progress story of my life in the past year. I weighed 232 lbs in May when I actually started exercising. The before photos are from Feb. but I probably weighed the same. I discovered running in June, hot yoga in November, MFP in December and pole dance classes in Decemeber too! I am 50 lbs lighter now :D
I lost 30 lbs since joining MFP in December! I can't believe it!!!
I still have 20 more pounds to lose but I CAN DO IT!! :D I love reading everyone's success story so I thought I would post my own (progress) story. I have been really stressed out from school lately and my logging has stopped for the most part (but I'm trying to get back into it). I hope that posting this will give me the motivational push I need to keep going :) thanks for reading!

    My story, exactly!! Lost a little over 50 pounds, need/want to lose 20 more. Finding it hard to muster up the motivation at the moment... Been slacking off in the exercise department for the past week. We can do this!! Let's get right back at it!!

    I've got about 20 to go as well. They are much more resilient than the first 40+!! but I'm sticking with it. This is a lifetime not a race to some imaginary finish line.
