One year on MFP

I started on MFP a year ago. I took a break during the Fall of 2013, due to battling a severe depressive episode, but all in all, I think I've done pretty well.

I've lost almost 25 pounds. I've taken 9 inches off my waist and 5 inches off my hips.

My best friend is my biggest supporter, and has lost almost twice what I have using MFP! She is in one of the pictures with me, taken after a run a few weeks ago.

I'm not going to make this a long post, all about me and my struggles and successes. After all, people just come here for the photos!

I still have more work to do. My goal weight is 9.2 pounds away! My 40th birthday is coming soon and I will be going on a cruise for the first time. I'm so excited!!! And I'm going to look and feel great for my get-away!

    I used the wrong format for the links. They should be okay now. A few were not re-sized correctly but I don't care. I'm too tired to fix them!!! You get the general idea... eat less, move more = beauty and health! :-)
