Wow...I can't believe I've been part of this communtiy for 7 months(as of today). Im 96 pounds lighter, and full of life! Even my husband recently joined MFP and he's seeing results!

I never thought I"d be a single digit anything when it came to clothing! If you told me 7 months ago, I would weigh 150 pounds, I'd call your bluff!

There are NO magic pills, potions, or tricks....its being dedicated, motivated, and full hearted into a healthy life! I have 3 little boys, they used to be my "excuse"not to work out (oh, Im too tired, etc).....well 7 months later,they are and always be my reason TO workout!

Here are a few numbers for you:

Starting weight 246.2 Pants 18/20 Shirt XL/XXL Shoes 10, undergarments 40D and size 9 Ring size 7

Now weight 150 Pants 7/8, Shirt S/M, Shoes 9 undergarments 36C and size 6 Ring size 6.

If I can do it, you can too!!!
