Name: Veronica (Roni) Noone
Age: 32
Height: 5'9''
Before weight: 210
How I gained it: From my teens through my 20s, I yo-yo'ed myself from a healthy 155 pounds to an unhealthy 210. I was miserable in my skin for as long as I can remember. I was either dieting or I ate whatever I wanted and whenever I wanted. There was no middle ground.
Breaking point: I had a child, and he changed my whole perspective on body image, diet, health and life.
How I lost it: I learned how to balance my meals and how to incorporate activity into my everyday life. And most important, I learned that my goal couldn't be about changing my body shape to some perfect ideal. It had to be about being the healthiest and happiest I could be.
After weight: 145
Roni has maintained her weight loss since January 2006.
Let Roni continue to inspire you at Roni's Weigh, Green Lite Bites and over at AOL Health, where she's featured with others who have blogged the weight away.

Roni,
Thanks for an inspiring story. 2 years ago I lost more than 50 pounds and have continued to maintain a healthy weight, but it is not easy! In an effort to provide support and encouragement to other women struggling with weight and health issues, I have created a blog http://healthynotskinny.blogspot.com/
Good luck and I will definitly take a look at your blog!
Be well,
Jeanine
