100 Pounds lost! 355 to 253

In August/September of 2009 I hit my heaviest weight of 355 pounds. I was miserable, my knees hurt, my blood sugar was acting crazy, I wasn't sleeping well and I felt like I would be stuck like this forever.

Fast forward a little under 3 years and I have lost 102 pounds 55 of which since joining MFP in Oct. of 2011) clocking in this afternoon at 253.2 pounds.

My knees feel better, my blood sugar is not longer an issue and I sleep like a baby. I still have about 40 pounds to go to reach my goal, but this is such a HUGE milestone.
