    I know your proud! I joined MFP in April of this year, weighed in a 169. I started jogging and now I'm up to 30 min's a day with a distance of 1.8 miles, so far I've averaged loosing about one lb a week. Today my weigh in was 162.00 after only six weeks.:smile:

    You look wonderful! How inspirational you are! I just ran a 5K too. Isn't it funny to say "I run"? At least it has been for me. Keep with this. You are a model for success!

    So, I started this whole thing at my highest weight of 290ish. This is the only picture that exists of me at that weight:

    I lost a little weight and lived at 268 for a few years:

    Today, about 9 months after I started really focusing on my fitness I am 202.5 pounds and officially in the overweight category according to the BMI:

    I did my first race a few weeks ago. Just a 5k, but I rocked the heck out of it and had so much fun!:

    I still have LONG road ahead of me, but I am looking forward to it! I have a few more 5ks coming up and my first triathlon later in July. I have just been having fun with the whole fitness thing and seeing what I can do next!
    You actually look like 140-150 in tht pic not 202. Great work!! Amazing

    It's in Littleton, Massachusetts! I am terrified but totally excited all at once. That's what I hear about them! I'm guessing this won't be my last :)
