Non scale victory!
My little clicker says I've lost 44 lbs since I've started on MFP, which is awesome. It's only been 25 lbs since the beginning of the year, but still. I'm pretty excited.

I am stronger than cookies!!...I think
Yet another newbie here, just wanted to make my presence known :) I am 22, I am married and that's my son in my userpic, and I need to get healthy! I have been overweight my whole life. The last time I remember weighing less than 200 lbs was when I was 11. I lost 80 lbs two years ago and made it down to 205 - but it was…
