:happy: Hi MFP!!! Well I just posted this on my wall but felt I would share with the MFP world!!! I started here in July 2011. Got on the exercise trail and love it!!! I love to post my exercise and MFP holds me accountable! I have kept 20# off for 7 years...but that last 30 I lose and gain over and over! Since July I have lost 18#. I went through my closet and to my delight the thin clothes pile FITS!!!!! I have a whole new wardrobe!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am at a place I have been several times. It seems like I get here..feeling fit and confident...clothes fitting good etc. It lasts for a very short time and then slowly I am back where I started. I have a differently feeling this time!!!!! I am in the habit of exercising, spin, step, weights, hiking, jogging (not my favorite) , yoga...keeping it all different and fun. I have a work friend who told me last week that in all the times I have lost weight I look the best I ever have!!!!!!!!!!!!:bigsmile: Thank you exercise:flowerforyou:

MFP and all my friends here have helped me get here. And you are going to help me get to a place beyond where I thought I could go!!! I know I can and I just wanted to THANK YOU and encourage those who need support to not give up and check in daily!

You can do it too!!!:heart:

    That's fabulous! :) Congrats!

    I've been working at this MFP and weight loss for about a month now. On days I feel like giving up, all I have to do is log on to MFP and get the support I need. :)
