Where to start...My success in progress.
My weight loss journey (this time) began in March 2011. After a dr visit and some very scary news, I decided that it was time to get serious about my life and my health. I was diagnosed with PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). This explained why losing weight was so hard before. I immediately turned to God, vowed that I was going to become closer to him through my journey toward a healthy life. I needed health in my physical, psychological and spiritual life. From March until June I had went from 262+ lbs down to 256 lbs. There was no way I could accept that progress. I joined Curves and MFP on the same day!
I have been with MFP and Curves since June 17th of this year. The best decision yet. Since June I have dropped more weight then I could have ever expected, 256 lbs to 216 lbs! I have lost a total of 46 lbs and 31.5 inches! My BMI has dropped from 41.31 to 34.51 and body fat %, 42.5% to 37.2%...down 6.8 points on the BMI scale and 5.3% body fat.
Initially, I had planned to share my story at the half way point. Since my halfway point is only 5 lbs away, here are my progress pics...!
This is me at around 262 maybe 270...right before my wedding August 30, 2010
