Hi, my name is JustSomeJD, and I'm a fat *kitten*. Well I used to be, but I'm on my way back down to health and fitness. Using MFP I've dropped about 24 pounds since April. I haven't stuck to logging every morsel of food I eat, but I try to keep tabs on it pretty closely. Even though I've been here a while I waited to post so I wouldn't be thrown in with the New Years twits, half of whom have likely given up by now. 
Couple of recent NSVs:
I had to buy new belts
I had to donate some new and expensive suits since I looked like a kid in my dad's clothes
My pea coat is loose enough that I get drafty inside of it, and I can turn sideways in it with it buttoned
My goal last year was 1 pant size before the new year, I'm down two
I can slide out of most of my pants without unbuttoning them, and almost all require a belt or they'll fall off.
L t-shirts are an option again and I don't look like an overstuffed burrito.
Looking forward to continuing my journey.
