I've lost quite a bit and have a fair amount of loose skin. My regret is that I didn't incorporate weight training into my exercise routine from the beginning. I'm sure I would still have some loose skin but probably not this much.

Happy Birthday!

Great post. Congrats on choosing to start on the journey to healthy.

Thanks so much everyone. MFP has truly been a life saver for me. It goes everywhere with me on my phone and I don't know what I woud have done without the supportive community on this site. Who knew counting calories actually worked??

I used microsoft publisher. Each pic has its own frame and I used word art to create the captions.

ok, i suck at resizing. LOL.

one more try

still the wrong size. guess i went in the wrong direction resizing.

Anyone know how to resize it?

Congrats on becoming a healthier and happier you!

A friend of mine keeps a bag of dark chocolate chips in her freezer. Whenever she needs a fix, she can just grab a few cause knows exactly how many she can have and stay on track.

^^^^^This^^^ I found that it's a whole lot easier drinking from a cup with a straw. I have a 24 oz cup at work and one at home that I drink from. I thought it was just me being weird.

Congratulations!

feel free to add me

I love the reduced sugar Frosted Flakes.

How about beer and wine and a signature cocktail, maybe in your wedding color.

My start weight was 390. As of this morning's weigh in, I'm down just over 151 lbs.

Even if you don't share them with anyone ever, definitely take progress pics. It will help you see the progress you're making when you start doubting yourself later on. :) I take a monthly pic and now I can look back and see just how far I've come.

Don't know if you can get it or not but I keep instant oatmeal in my drawer at work. Nuts are a good snack as well.
