    Hahaha, my boyfriend wound up slowly not going to the gym and it was ME pushing HIM to come with me! :) It's ok because he found a running buddy at work and they run 3 times a week after their shifts. And I have a few virtual running friends from MFP that I run with :) He is super proud of me and very supportive. He loved me when I was 207 lbs and loves me just the same at 147 lbs. I have a ton of health issues that run in my family and his biggest concern was diabetes.

    How exciting! Not only weight lost, but a new lifestyle.
    I am also going to try the C25K program... haven't started yet due to recovery from a surgery... but I'm down almost 40 pounds and want to try to run a 5K in October.
    Way to go!

    Yes. Someone stole my before pictures as well as another members on here and posted a story that she lost over 120 lbs. She submitted the story to Cassey at Blogilates.com. You can go on facebook and search "Blogilates" or see the blog at www.blogilates.com

    I am in no way shape or form mad at Cassey, the young lady who spends her time educating and posting free workouts, recipes and calendars for her followers. I am mad at "Hannah" for stealing my picture to pass it off as her own. She did this to gain twitter followers and attention. I called her out on Twitter and minutes later, she deleted her twitter account. She was caught red handed. Just be careful MFP users. Seems like nothing is safe anymore!

    Hello, saw your story on Blogilates and firstly, I am saddened that someone would use your pictures to create a fictional person online. Secondly congratulations on your success, while reading your story I could totally identify with you and it was truly an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story with us! :)
