    A year ago today (January 20, 2013) I was thinking about how unhappy I was with my size and just felt huge. My mom got me a digital scale for Christmas so I decided to step on it. The number was 285, I knew if I keep going like I was by the time next Christmas would come around I would be 300 pounds easy. I didn't want that so I knew I had to change. Well I ended up remember MFP I had tried it before and just never really used it. I even remembered my log it information and everything. I am not going to say I had a perfect year but I did have a pretty good one. As far as what I did the #1 thing you already know about which is count calories (MFP) and I also exercise sometimes more than others.

    Here’s the numbers:
    1/20/2013- 285, jeans tight 22, 3X shirts
    1/20/2014- 228.3, jeans 16, 1x or xl shirts
    *difference of 56.7 pounds I have lost 19.9% of my body weight.

    Now I will share some photos from my journey....

    1/23/13, 282.5- day three

    3/24/13, 261.5- day three vs three months

    Congratulations ! :)

    Aside from the weight loss a one year program is a huge lifestyle change achievement, you certainly deserve a pat on the back from yourself. Keep it up, you certainly have it within you, this proves it !
