March of 2011, I was completely tired of feeling fat, eating like crap, and being exhausted all the time no matter how much I slept. None of my clothes fit right and I had to do the “FAT DANCE” just to get my jeans on! I was 23 years old and felt like I was 83! I finally said no more! I changed my eating habits and got my butt off the couch and went to the gym. I lost my first 20 lbs on MFP. I was on a roll! However, I experienced some pretty life changing events in my life. During this time I could not put a 110% into MFP. I was not commenting on my friends post and they started deleting me so I decided to delete my MFP account and just diet on my own. I’ve continued counting calories and working out! Over the past 7 months I have lost 43 lbs. I started out weighing my heaviest 165 and I’m now 122ish! I’m not exactly where I want to be and that’s why I’m back! I need MFP and the wonderful people and support! I would like to be around 115 and have some muscle definition. I hope you wonderful people will add me as friends so we can help and support each other!! I absolutely HATE pictures so I really don’t have a before and after picture. Here is a picture of me at my heaviest with my husband at 165 and here is a picture of me with my sister at around 125!

So please add me as a friend! I’m ready to accomplish my goals and help others archive theirs!

    WOW! Your pics are awesome!! Very impressed with your weight loss. You look great in your profile pic!

    You don't have to encourage others so much. Just do it when you have time and feel like it. No one should unfriend you because of that. I wouldn't.

    Great job! Im anxious to know how tall you are. Also wondering how often you lift weights at the gym. You have great potential for more muscularity.

    You can add me as a friend, I would love the mutual support. One thing, though, remember, you should never judge yourself by how someone else acts. If people delete you, that just means they didn't have the staying power to be your friend. I won't always comment on everything, but I do my best to keep in touch at least every couple of days. We are only as good as we think we are!
