:# hi!! i was wondering if some of you that have lost 100lbs or more would be kind enough to provide me with the link to your success story in case that you have one here MFP.

I've being hitting a lot the search bottom since last night and I'm almost blind believe me and bit tier from going back in that section.

thanks in advance! J.

    I've lost 100lbs, but I haven't gotten around to writing my success story, maybe because I consider myself still a work in progress. Right now my focus is building muscle. Maybe when I turn 50 in 2 years I'll finally post my success story.

    Here is a before/after collage from last year when I hit the "century" mark.

    Longer than it should have. I started working on my weight in 2012. I was able to lose 60lbs in 25 wks that year. Problem was I was too restrictive with my food choices and I wasn't able to sustain it.

    I gained a bit back (not much roughly 18lbs) before I started using MFP on March 13,
    2013. I was able to lose 48lbs (so 30lbs lower than my lowest weight in 2012) between March and September 2013. In September, I discovered I was pregnant.

    May 27, 2014, I was 41 wks pregnant and weighed 212lbs. I had a c-section a few days later and in June I started tracking my weight again at 194lbs. I was able to get to 160lbs around mid December which put me at 100lbs lost. As of today, I'm 157.8lbs.

    I probably would have hit the 100lbs lost mark by Jan 2014 if I hadn't been pregnant. If it wasn't for MFP, I probably wouldn't have been able to get this far without struggling. I love that I can still eat all my favorite foods as long as they fit into my calories for the day.

    I didn't take any before shots in 2012, but I do have a picture of me on Dec 25, 2011. It was the first time I got to hold my oldest son and me at my heaviest. I had just had a c-section and the hospital had me using a wheel chair to get from L&D to the NICU.
