Today marks 3 straight years on MFP and two successful years of maintenance of my 80 pound loss. Today i'm going to freaking celebrate and you know how? By committing to another 3 years of maintenance....5 years....10 years....20 years...because getting real with myself, learning how to live a healthy lifestyle, losing the weight and making myself the 1st priority in my own life was the best thing I ever did and I deserve to feel this way for the rest of my life. Thank you to all my amazing MFP friends for continuing to keep me motivated everyday.

If you think you can't do it too; trust me you can.

    You look amazing! This is JUST the inspiration I needed. Naturally I carry a lot of fat on my upper arms and I always notice how others who have fat there don't seem to lose as much even when they lose tons of weight. Your arms look awesome! Nice to know it is possible :)

    Oh my goodness, your transformation is Astonishing!! :) Very well done, would you have any advice for people who are just starting out who have very little knowledge of how to do what you did? Nutrition or workout tips?

    @Keladelphia that is my EXACT feeling. I absolutely hate my arms. Even when I was at my smallest, I was still super self conscious because they didn't shrink as much as I wanted. What do you think contributed most to them shrinking exercise-wise? Or was it a combination of your workouts? I had already planned to begin my yoga practice again next month, and I have Crossfit aspirations, but I don't have a Crossfit AND yoga budget. Just wondering which one would be better. I have free access to a weight room and plan to start lifting soon as well.
