toni219's Journal, 26 Apr 11

It's been a little over a year since I joined FS, so let's reflect: I weighed 247 (and that's being nice--I was actually probably more around 255 when I started) and wore a size 22-24 a year ago. I lived a completely sedentary life, ate fast food 5-6 times a week, and drank whatever I felt like.

ONE YEAR LATER: I log & track my calories every single day. I rarely eat fast food, and on the special occassions when I do, it's a "treat" & I still make the wisest decisions I can. I now exercise for at least an hour 5-6 times a week, and the only thing I drink is water & organic tea. I RUN, and LIKE IT! And I'd suppose the biggest measurements of my progress comes down to the numbers: I now weigh 155 lbs and am a size 9.

WOWWWW!!!!

I'm so happy with my progress. I'm proud of myself, especially for accomplishing all of this without surgery, without South Beach or Weight Watchers or Atkins or whatever else. I used the tools readily available to me--my brain & the internet--to figure out how to do it. For the first time in my life, I feel as though I've accomplished something truly awesome all on my own.
