My name is Michael and back in 2007 I was at my heaviest over 242+ pounds. I did not realize how much the over weight I was. My doctor told me that I was pre diabetic. I was concerned and needed to change my bad habits. I started to watch what I ate and started to ride my mountain bike. By 2010 I was down 60 pounds, but it was not constant. I would fluctuate by 25 pounds. In 2011 I lost my job and without notice I was up to 217 pounds. In May 2013 I joined MFP. I was focusing on my calories and started to lose weight. I July 2013 I started a workout program called Insanity. I enjoyed this program and I became committed to getting healthy. I work nights and was always tired and sluggish. This May I started to eat clean. With better and proper nutrition the weight fell off and I have energy. I started to sleep better. I now like to help motivate others.

That is incredibly inspiring! I've toyed with the idea of doing the Zone Diet (food blocks) myself. Eating cleaner, etc. I'm always motivated after reading a success story. Keep it up!0
