    You've done an amazing job!!! Very well done :) and I'm glad to see that you don't have to go without food that you love (pizza, etc) and can still achieve the results. Thanks for sharing!!

    This is perfect, because this is exactly the shape I am in. I started at 247 @ 51 and said the same thing. I've lost 30lbs. in 60 days but my goal is 175, where you are now. Great to know what I will look like at the end of the summer.

    It helped with some of them, no more high blood pressure, no more high cholesterol, I still have hypothyroidism and I have not been re-evaluated by a medical provider for the sleep apnea.

    Your story inspired me I have been on diets on and off for years lost about 20 t0 40 lbs only to gain it all back. Started a family weight loss challenge last week I weighed 381lbs and am 5'11 and at 52 years old I know it will be hard but will be worth it lost over 8lbs my first week so i am pumped i am in it for the long haul this time THIS TIME I WILL NOT QUIT. Keep up the good work you look great.
    Thanks

    It is so awesome to see others who have taken this weight loss jouney and suceeded so triumphantly! My story is similar to yours (besides the gender, medical issues, and such lol) I took up mountain biking on June 1, 2011 and cut the calories. Had to stop eating so much fast food, processed food and FAT! I Started using MFP about a week after my journey began and it has been the catalyst! 8 1/2 months later, I am 72 pounds lighter and training for my first TRIATHALON!! You are an inspiration, and I hope it helps others to realize their weight loss goals... and understand they ARE possible, and it is worth every bit of effort!
