edited December 2024 in Success Stories
A number of months ago Eating Well Magazine posted on their Facebook page if anyone had/has a weight loss story that they wanted to share with them. So I reached out to them. We e-mailed back and forth for a few weeks, and actually did a couple phone interviews. They decided they were going to use my story in one of their magazines. The May/June edition to be exact. So they e-mailed me the story they were going to be printing in PDF. And about 4 weeks later a copy of the issue arrived at my door step.

Well today I logged onto Facebook and low and behold they also published it to the internet for all to see.

    Very cool! Great work. I too have gone from barely being able to walk 1/4 mile to running a 5k just last week. It took me a lot longer than it did you!

    Dudddddeeeee!!! Way to go!

    Your story makes me feel like I'm looking in a mirror. I was 367 when I downloaded MFP. I've also downloaded and completed both C25K and C210K, and I even have a Garmin Vivosmart and use the Garmin Connect app.

    I've lost 128 lbs and now weigh under 240.

    Keep it up man! Congrats!
