I started MFP on 2/11/11. Here's a picture of me at the Marine Corps Birthday Ball in November 2010, and November 2011. I lost 42.5 pounds in that time. I'm so happy I decided to get up off my rear end and do something about it. It's well worth the work....you can do it too! By the way....all the pictures that everyone posted on this tread look amazing! Congratulations on your hard work! YEAH!



You look years younger wow! So many others too I could have said the same too. You all have done wonderfully!

This is why I love MFP! All of this pictures, stories, it's so inspiring...and proves that if you just don't give up in time all of the hard work will pay off.

You did a great job over the past two years.... Congrats on all of your loss!!

What an amazing year it has been! I've always been small all my life (115 lbs) even when I was pregnant with son I only weighed 147 lbs which I lost after his birth. I put on 17 lbs over night it seemed but I and what kept watching cooking shows and cooking full meals all day. There was no signs of me slowing down. I talked about losing weight but talking was all I did about it. The end of February of this year, I went to the mall to purchase clothes and was stunned that I couldn't fit an large shirt. I was gonna have to cross over into the plus section if I wanted that shirt. I cried walked out of the store and headed to Chili's and pigged out for the last time. I had to make a stand and straighten up my act. My sister told me about MFP and joined the day before Super Bowl Sunday. I still had fight in me to stay focused enough to take control of my life. Meeting all the lovely ladies in MFP that came for different walks of life and had their own life story really inspired me to keep pushing. I've had many bad days and they are first to life my spirits and whip me back to warrior mode. Today I stand tall and walk with a iron fist lasting weighing in at 119 lbs. 21 pounds later!

I am loving this thread. Amazing motivation. Between having to dig out my photos and looking at the difference and seeing everyone else's amazing progress. Just outstanding.
