    Today marks my one year anniversary of my weightloss journey. In the past year I have lost 67 lbs, going from 215 to 148. (from a size 18 pants to now a size 6) I have lost 11 inches from my hips, from 47 to 36. I have lost 11 inches from my waist, from 41 to 30. I can now run a 5k. A year ago I could barely run a block. A year ago I tried zumba and thought I was going to die. Now I am in the process of getting zumba instructor certified. I can now do kickboxing and I kick *kitten* at it. I am in the middle of doing a boot camp program and I am one of the most fit people there. I have never felt more strong or powerful in my life. But most of all I have never felt more confident in myself, emotionally and physically. I have literally saved my own life. I say all this to tell you guys if you are just starting out you CAN and WILL do this. I still have a little way to go but I will get there eventually. Thanks to all my friends who have been here for me the past year in some way. You all mean so much to me and I truly think I couldn't have done it without you.

    I believe in you.

    (FYI- I have been a member of MFP since 2009. It took me almost a year to get it together and really do this for me.)

    Wow that is sick! Like in a pretty awesome way! Congrats on all that weight loss. It's amazing how much of a change you can go through.

    I saw your quote and girl, you've got your abs now! :)

    We are really similar. I was at 213 and before I got on here I had lost 7 pounds. Now I'm on here and I want to get to between 145 and 140. What are some big tips you have for losing at a steady rate? Do you have any preferred exercise besides running?

    Wow! Inspirational. I'm going to do some sit ups as soon as I get off the computer! I tried Zumba and it kicked my butt! I thought it was great. I remember thinking the instructor rocked to be able to do all that and still speak. I was glad I brought a towel to class.
