in Success Stories
I said to myself that I wasn't going to do a thread until I reached my goal, but I can't contain the joy!

I started this weight loss journey (seriously) in early January of this year. This morning I stepped on the scale and saw that I was in the 100s, something I haven't seen since my early college years. I couldn't stop the happy tears! :) It is definitley a surreal feeling. I hit a plateau for the last month, holding steady at the same weight for 4 weeks straight and it was driving me crazy because I was still working my hardest. I was about to give up but I have a very supportive friend who convinced me to continue on the journey. It took a lot of talking myself into it, but upping the calories was the key.

I just want to thank EVERYONE who has posted their success stories. I wouldn't have pushed through and kept it up if it wasn't for you! I WILL, one day, have an after picture.

HW: 250
Weight starting on MFP: 240
GW: 160ish?
Current weight: 199.4!!!!!!!!
Height: 5'6"
Age: 30

    I'm so happy for you!!!! I hit there last month and I had those same happy tears! I just started upping my calories two days ago because I had a bit of an unhealthy episode that made me realize I wasn't giving my body what it needed. I'm hoping to have the same results as you and break through another plateau. Congrats to you on an amazing moment!!!
