75lb+ weight loss and I get to really enjoy life now!

This is probably me at my heaviest at anywhere from 250lbs to 260lbs. Those days I refused to even look at a scale never mind get on one. I had been overweight ever since a teenager. Now - I am at 175lbs-178lbs. It has been a long road and I am so glad to know I am shortly hitting a year of maintaining my current weight. I was able to enjoy my dream trip last summer to Europe and not worry about not fitting in comfortably in a airplane seat. It really is the little things that make this weight loss so rewarding. I enjoy seeing all the other success stories on here! It keeps me motivated. Myfitnesspal has been the best way to keep on track. This is best day of my week - cheat day!
