I started MFP Jan 3, 2014 after losing 25 lbs on my own. I have logged every single day since that first day :) I log the good, the bad, and the ugly. Workout wise I started with simply walking a mile. Then I upped it to 3 miles. I created a workout plan to follow at home and stuck with that and walking. In August 2014, I joined a workout group called G-fit. It is a class that meets 3 days a week and I've only missed 2 classes due to being out of town! I increased my walking and have completed multiple 5K's and 3 half marathons. I am beginning to run and have a full race calendar planned out for 2015 including a full marathon in November.

First picture: left Oct 2013 right April 2015

Second picture - My first 5k Sept 2014 to my 3rd half marathon April 2015 - there is only about a 15 lb difference in those pictures. White shirt is a 3xl and the blue shirt is a fitted xl tech shirt.

Third picture - August 2014 right before I started G-fit to April 2015 after my 9th round of G-fit. I have lost a total of 22.4 lbs and 53.175 inches in those 9 rounds. Although the scale hasn't moved much there is a big difference in inches.
