This makes me so proud that I never gave up.
My friend from the UK on here (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/darrensurrey) published this article today:
http://www.wimble.com/obesity-to-omg-one-womans-journey/
I lost 85 pounds almost 5 years ago and MFP has helped me maintain since then. I can't add any more friends as I've been at the 1000 limit for several years now, but the requests keep coming in - I'm sorry I can't add them. I didn't set the limit.
Here's a BnA picture, the after picture was in 2012:
And this picture was taken today:
I'm still really happy and living my dream!

Thank you. I just read your profile and I wanted you to know I did the yo-yo dieting for about 15 years before I finally got this figured out! Have hope. If I can do it in my 50's anyone can.

Thank you. Well YOU are doing it too. I love your goal of not being a burden to your family. I feel the same way, right now at age 54.

Most of my tips are in the article, and there the link to one of the companies I work for and my blog have many stories I've written. There is a lot on my blog here on MFP as well. I don't want to post any of those links here because it upsets people
