When I met my husband 7 years ago, I weighed 185 lbs at 5' 5". He loved me anyway.

I started MFP a few months ago at 135 and am down to 126 now. I don't have pics to show the difference because back then, for obvious reasons, I didn't like to have my pic taken. I still don't due to self-esteem issues as to why I don't have any new ones either.

Yesterday we got invited to a pool party and it was the first time in a long time that I didn't go in the shorts and baggy t-shirt and not swim. Had an awesome time and even got a little tan.

He's lost almost 40 lbs himself since we started here! MPF has changed our lives and we're thankful for it!
