**SPRINGING into SUMMER 85 POUNDS LIGHTER**
85 POUNDS GONE!
MAINTAINING NEW HEALTHY WEIGHT!

85 POUNDS GONE!
MAINTAINING NEW HEALTHY WEIGHT!
As far back as I can remember, I've always been a bit on the heavy side, and that little bit expanded to being overweight during middle school and beyond.
I had my first knee surgery my freshman year of high school after messing it up during basketball all during middle school. My weight kept creeping up as I couldn't participate in any sport that year. I then had a second knee surgery, on the same knee, the summer before my senior year of high school.
I got to college and I was so sick of being overweight. I tried eating healthier and going to the gym more, but nothing really clicked.
We moved into our own apartment middle of sophomore year, and I was able to make semi-better choices food wise vs eating in the cafeteria, but I still wasn't losing
One day, during my Junior year of college, I went to put on my size 18 pants....and they were tight! Finally, enough was enough and I did something about it. I started taking my weight loss seriously Jan 2011 and from then on I have stuck to it. I joined SP in Sept 2011.
Below are some milestones I have crossed along my journey, weight and other NSV's, too!
