...well more than halfway, actually, 47.5 lbs. to go to ultimate goal! :)

Started January 4, 2012 with my lifestyle change and using MFP. I credit MFP mostly for my success, that and my sheer determination to make a change for the good. I feel great and am excited to keep going to get to goal and live a healthier life.

Here are my progress pictures thus far: (start, Jan. 4 - 246; today, June 13 - 193.5)

    Wow!! I am so inspired by your success pics. What has made you stick to it during the rough patches??
    I can only think that alot of "emotional poundage" has been released as well. I am looking forward to that.
    Thank you for sharing.

    Honestly, I'm not sure. Something just CLICKED for me and then there was/is no turning back. I know I was fat and I knew my health was poor, because I was fat. All of my life I had been super healthy, hardly ever saw a doctor. I noticed as I got fatter that I would have more and more things go wrong with me and I saw the doc within in small timespan than I had my entire life. I knew I needed to make a change for myself and my family. My grandmother passed away at the age of 45 of a massive heart attack, partly due to her being overweight.I knew I had to do something and I just went with it. I was the biggest I had ever been in my entire life and it was unacceptable. I do not look at it as "losing weight", I look at it as a lifestyle change (for real) and losing weight is a bonus! When I make it to goal (because that is a healthy weight for me) I will continue with this lifestyle and nothing will change. It is tough at first to keep going, but MFP helps A LOT. I thoroughly enjoyed getting on and seeing that I had logged in for XX days and so forth, I knew I was doing something good! It's just continued and I just hit 160 days, I think...close to 165. It's a good feeling! :)
