My intro after one year of using MFP

Hello! In 20 days I will have been using MFP for one year. I have lost 56 pounds and I'm very excited about the progress I've made. I have found this tool to be invaluable for keeping me motivated and on track. Unfortunately, I don't have any before and after pics, but I started at 230 pounds (I'm 5'3") and I'm now down to 174. I plan to still be here a year from now and I hope to be down another 25 to 40 pounds. I don't have a final destination in mind since I think different weights suit different body types. I'll know it when I get there and I'm not in any hurry since I view this as a permanent way of life, not a diet. I just wanted to say hello, introduce myself, and let others know that it can be done!
