I can now sit on the floor and then get up again (without a struggle).

My husband said I was walking too fast, and that he couldn’t keep up with me. :D

I’ve dropped another cup size in my bras. Plus, they’ve now got a smaller strap at the back :D

I’m 49 and 50 is fast approaching. I started my weight loss journey August 2017. I had visited the Dr’s regarding a chest infection. I ended up being told I had extremely high blood pressure and was heading towards a stroke/heart attack, I was also morbidly obese. Weight loss surgery was an option, but it was not one I…

I’ve dropped another size in my jeans. I’m now a UK 14, I was a UK 24.

I’m cold all the time too, especially my hands and feet. It does beat being sweaty/hot and clammy though :) .

[/quote] Congrats @Jedi_Jo . Must be a good feeling. This is my first goal - to enter overweight BMI. I am just over 1 kg away. [/quote] I was happy, I could’ve cried. Good luck with your goal👍, you’re nearly there.

My BMI now classes me as overweight. When I started my weight loss journey I was morbidly obese.

500 for me :)

I’ve logged into MFP for 500 days :)

When I’ve finally reached my goal, I’d love to get a tattoo (as well as new boobs). The tattoo seems most likely though :D

For the first time in many many years, I finally weigh less than my husband.

Well done, keep up the good work :)

“Shall we go for a run or a hike?” “At least I don’t have to press this tofu” “I need smaller running leggings” “I’m a Vegetarian”

I too had a BMI of 44, and a health scare gave my the determination and mindset to change. My Doctor did explain about weight loss surgery, I declined as I knew I had to get my head in the right place. I’ve changed my mindset I’m no longer on a diet, I’ve changed my lifestyle. My lifestyle change includes weighing, logging…

Well done, you look great.

That I’d start running, and enjoy it. C25K is brilliant, I’ve recently completed week 9 and I’ve kept up with the running. I love it. That some people love it when you hit a plateau. That my brain hasn’t quite caught up with my weight loss (-77lb). When clothes shopping I still automatically go for the bigger sizes.

I graduated Couch to 5K on Sunday. I’m so pleased, and plan to keep running.

I graduated Couch to 5K , last night.

Thank you👍

I got 2 dresses today in size 14 (UK), I started my weight loss journey as a 24-26 (UK).

Week 8, run 3 completed last night. We went out later in the evening, it was still so hot though. It was a hard run, lots of inclines. However, with great encouragement from my husband I powered on through and completed it without stopping.

Week 8, run 3 completed of C25K. Bit of a mild panic in the shower. I thought I’d found a lump under my chest. Shouted for my husband who confirmed it was my sternum! Mild terror and then joy all at the same time.

Yesterday was my 1 year vegeterian anniversay, 1 year of logging my food in MFP and I also completed Week 8, day 1 of C25K.

Week 7 run 2 completed. I still can’t believe I’m running non stop for 25 minutes👍

My first weight loss goal is 100lb. So far I’ve lost 74lb. I haven’t really set a target yet. Good luck everyone, we can do it.

I completed week 7 day 1 of C25K. I ran for the full 25 minutes :)

So far I’ve lost 74lb. Physically I feel much better. I no longer have pains in my feet, I don’t have aches/pains when I wake in the morning, I don’t get that horrible fat cramp ache/pain in the stomach anymore, I have more energy, I’ve started running and just feel so much better in myself. Mentally, I feel in a much…

Amazing, well done.

Week 6 completed last night. I managed to run (albeit slowly) for the full 25 minutes.
