Today is my 300th day on MPF, so to celebrate I decided to share my success story (though I don't actually feel I'm a success).
On August I weighed in at 158 lbs (72 kg), not my heighest ever, but high nonetheless, and being 5'3 (162 cm) I did not carry the weight very well.
I never thought it'd be possible for me to actually be "skinny", I dieted many times before (more times than I can count, even though I'm only 24), but I never really lost a lot of weight, and always gained at least some of it back.
I decided to lose some weight, not because I was fed up, not for myself, but actually because I didn't want my grandmother to give me s*** at my cousin's wedding. I thought that around 10 lbs would be a nice loss by the wedding at October. I didn't know what to try this time, and started googling. This is how I found MFP. And Insanity. The two best decisions of my life.
By October, I've lost the 10 lbs I wanted to, and was close to finishing my first round of Insanity. And then I thought, why not go further? So I did, and I managed to fly through every small goal I've set to myself.
Today, I know that I'm capapble of so much more than I ever thought possible. I've lost over 40 lbs, and in the past 3 months I've been successfully maintaining between 115-118 lbs (52 - 53.5 kg).
The past 10 months have not been easy and some days are harder than others, but after all I can say that I'm proud of myself, and that's what matters most.
One of my biggest regrets is not taking before pictures, so the best I have is a full body pic from 2011, but I assume I weighed about the same as when I joined MFP:

This is me now:

And one last thing, a comparison of pictures taken on the exact same day one year apart, June 1st 2013 vs June 1st 2014:

Thank you for reading =]

Awesome transformation! I used to weight between 120-125 before I had kids and I'm 5'4. My youngest is 4 months old and I am down to 134. I just started the insanity program 4 days ago and it is intense! I hope to have the same results you have had. I would love to lose another 10-14 pounds. Maybe even more. I'm not sure yet. Great job!0
