What made you decide to make the difference and shift the weight?

    I actually never decided to lose weight. I decided to try to be more fit and the rest kind of fell in with that.

    I joined a fitness challenge with friends and someone had told me about MFP so I decided that would be a good way to track my exercising. The app was so easy to use for logging food that I just kind of went with it. As I lost weight, I figured what the hell, this isn't as hard as I thought. Nothing like every other time I "dieted" . So I kept with it. Down 26lbs now and have approximately 20 lbs left to go. As well as a long period of recomp afterwards.

    I decided to make a change after my yearly doctors appointment, where she broke the news that I was officially obese according to the BMI charts and she didn't think that categorization was wrong.
