I began this new lifestyle two years ago and lost 75 pounds of myself. I'm still not where I want to be but I work on it everyday (well ... almost everyday). I initially lost the weight very quickly and I think I've done a pretty decent job of maintaining my loss but ... I've gained about 25 pounds back and I want to lose even more. My goal of 180 is to get me back to where I was ... then ... I'll go for more. :)
