I started using MFP in January 2011, but just recently found the forums. I have to say I love all the before and after pictures and success stories, they give me the motivation and inspiration I need to keep going. I love reading about others success! Please feel free to friend me if you like, I welcome all the support and motivation!

I have been overweight for most of my life and have tried several diets but have never been able to keep the weight off when I went off of the diet. I moved from TX to WA in July 2010 and decided that with the move that I would also start living a healthier lifestyle. I bought a bike and started riding to work as well as going on walks in the afternoons after work. In January 2011 I found MFP and really started to track what I was eating and burning. I am very active now and a lot of times have a hard time eating all the necessary calories after exercising. At my heaviest I was around 365 lbs and when I started using MFP in January 2011 I was at 324 lbs., I am now down to 247 lbs. I still have a ways to go, but feel I am making great progress. I set several goals when I started in January, which I have accomplished and am now looking forward to my new goals and reaching them by December:happy:

BTW nickname is BW, so that is what beedubyaw (bee dub yaw) stands for :smile:

Here are some before and after pics:
