    Last september I was 50lbs heavier. Last september I was topped out in pant sizes at the 'plus size' stores. Last september...I was a mess.

    My bestfriend and her family came to visit and i tried to come up with all kinds of activities for us to do...it being fall, and they from the south , I decided to take them up to the adirondak mountains to do a little climb and see the leaves. We got to the mountain and they were off...and i was AWEFUL. Panting, embarassed, defeated...it was aweful. Though I made it to the top they spent ALOT of time waiting for me. I decided that day that this...was not acceptable. So...after comiting to MFP in february I set a date with my boyfriend to go back and reconquer that same mountain this september.

    So yesterday...we went. I got up that puppy in 45 mins! About half the time it took me last year. I soared up the 'fire tower' at the top and saw the amazing 360 view that I missed last year...like I've missed so many things being so big. It was really, for me, such a proud moment! I went racing back down that slope with just joy in my heart and pep in my step...determined to lose more, tone more...be more!

    At a little break on the way down my boyfriend gave me even more drive to push....HE PROPOSED! It was just the most amazing icing..on the wonderful day I was having already. The fresh air in my lungs...and such joy in my heart! He told me I was beautiful...and finally admited (though I suspected) that he did want to be stuck with me forever.

    I wanted to share my story...and ask for your support! It's a long road ahead MFP pals....but I want to be a beautiful bride...and never to be held back by any mountain I want to climb ever again!!!


    Aww thats amazing girl! Brought a tear to my eye! =) I'm so happy for you! ((((Huggsss)))

    Wow ~ OMG what a wonderful memory, what a wonderful guy, you are fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This journey is a real tough one. MFP really makes it so much easier! I would love to support you and see you get to your goal! Then the real work comes :huh:

    I have lost weight soooooo many times and it just comes right back. With the help of this site and LOTS of hard work I am going to make it and stay there!!!!

    The feeling will be so unreal when you are in that beautiful dress in front of all your friends and family feeling fit and thin!!!

    YOU CAN DO IT :flowerforyou:
