It's hard to believe only two months ago I started again using MFP to track food and exercise. I had begun on and off again but I've remained committed through Memorial Day , vacation , bad emotional days and stayed on track!

It's an amazing feeling. I even had a foot injury my third week by doing "too much". The doctor told me to take it easy. I went against that order and knew if I slowed down..I would find one excuse after another. So I did what I shouldn't have and kept going. I'm glad I personally did as now the pain is gone and hasn't come back.
I've been able to run slowly - even just from home to the bus stop five minutes away. From hand therapy to the bust stop again five minutes away. It's about starting small to bigger things !

I even got a heart rate monitor and watch I love and my husband has lost just under 15 lbs too.

So on April 21st I weighed in at 311 lbs - today I weigh 287!! I've also lost 5.5 inches on my waist alone.
If you are reading this..You CAN DO IT TOO. I was JUST like you..browsing the stories , looking for inspiration , it's right there in front of you , IN YOU. I eat well most days but I still have had ice cream , steak , bread - all the things I love just in different portions and options. The hardest part is taking the jump. We all start somewhere :)
