:smile: WOW do I love MFP!!!!! Everyone here is soooo wonderful and a Big Thanks for getting me off my butt and finding a new me :wink:

I weighed in today and had to get on and off the scale about 5 times...I couldn't believe the number I was seeing!!! ( I do deserve it but still) I am now .8 away from my drivers license weight, which has been a lie for YEARS!!!!!!

This transformation sure didn't happen over night. Since July I have been working out alot....it has been a big focus for me and I feel FANTASTIC!!! I still need to push hard and keep it going...I thought I would stop at this weight but now I KNOW I can go on to be a THIN person, so I want to lose another 15 -20.

I have also pushed myself with the help and support from my MFP friends to start running...I run my first 1/2 marathon next month. I tried spin class too which scared me...now I really like it.

So I guess what I am saying is I am proud of myself :bigsmile: And if I can do it YOU can do it too!!!!!!!!!!

Get moving and have a Great weekend :bigsmile:

    Congratulations. That is a really great success since I am sure most of us have the wrong weight on our licenses.

    Congrats! Sound as though you have done an amazing job! Losing weight is never an easy job, but putting it it on sure is easy. I am right there with you on the driver licence lie. The the first time in a loooong time I am actually under my driver licence weight!

    Way to go Judy! My license weight from 1995 is my goal too. BTW - thanks again for making MFP so much fun! I don't know I would have taken too the social aspect of it without a great friend like you to lead the way. =)
