Getting there - one pound at a time!

My hubby and I started in November 2013. I have always heard 2 pounds a week for a year is 100 pounds. Well guess what - that is RIGHT! Even though I have more than 100 to lose, I am 58 pounds down. That is a pretty awesome feeling. Once you can start buying different clothes and people you know come to you and ask, "How are you doing this?" - it is so motivating. Never thought I would post here, but I feel like these pictures and stories have inspired me, so I should pay it forward. I still have a long path ahead of me, but today I am many steps closer to the end than I was just dreaming about it. Hope I can get the pics up, as I have heard that there are problems sometimes.

    you look wonderful! It must feel great. I signed up before and then stopped using mfp but I am back now with over 100 to lose and I love seeing these stories. Especially the part way there, allowing oneself to celebrate the progress without focusing only on the end seems key. Thanks for posting.
