Goodbye 75lbs!

I started my journey in summer 2012 at around 217lbs. I lost about a stone through cutting back a bit, but it became stagnant. I came to MFP in October 2013 and haven't looked back. I log everything - the good days and the bad. I have fibromyalgia and various other issues so my exercise has been solely walking and swimming. I'm starting to add body weight and strength exercises this year and hope to make them a significant part of workouts this year, health permitting. I'd also like to be able to run, something I've never been able to do even in my younger, fitter days (back in my mid teens). My original goal was, for many years, 140lbs. I broke that in November 2014 and have decided to shoot for 126lbs now. I'm only 5 3 (or 4, depending which doctor you ask!) but the lowest I've ever been as a teen/adult is 155 in 2007, so this is all new territory for me! I put on a few lbs over Christmas, which I don't regret, but here's my photos from my first 75lbs loss!
