For the first time in my life, I am now officially at a healthy weight!

At my highest ever, I was 247 pounds (BMI: 38). Now, I am 158 (BMI: 24.7). I can't post pictures on here but I have some from my heaviest in my profile pictures to my current photo, which was taken at the finish line of my first marathon on Oct 10th.
