Since I'm on my second go-round with low-carb, and doing great, I thought I'd share my pictures too.

This is my before and afters from 2001 through 2004.





In 2004 life hit a major snag and I went back to my emotional eating. Gained it all back and then some. I started back this Jan. weighing in at an all time high of 203.




Here's my current, which is at 159.8. I have about 25lbs left until goal. :0)



So that's where I'm at right now. I'm sure I'll be yelling GOAL in the next few months. But this time I'm determined to keep it off.

your doing good!!!
Cant wait till we hear you yell GOAL

Really interesting and inspiring. Good for you for getting it together again!

WTG, Amy! I have been up and down, too, on my lc journey the past three years, (Currently 'up' ) so you are really inspiring me to get back on track. I guess I felt that because I have regained some, I'm a complete failure, but you have shown me I still have hope of losing this weight even if it is my second go around! I am very proud of you!

Straight jeans skirts are the true test of small hips, and yours looks great on you!

That's why this is always a journey which you will never fully arrive at your destination. You must continually travel down this path and when you think you're there you have to continue as if you are not. I'm proud of you, Amy, and wish you well as you march on!

Thanks to everyone!

CarolAnn, you certainly can do this again. I felt the same way. But I realized I had all the tools to make it happen again, I just needed to use them. So here I am.. and you too! You know what to do, so make it happen!

What a sweet thing to say Melodie! I miss that skirt and can't wait to "reunite". LOL

It's always good to see proof that the "golden shot theory" is bunk. You are certainly proving it wrong in a big way. That is as inspirational as any big first time loser to me. Great job!

Great job, Amy. You've been an inspiration over the years!

Thanks Kent and Sweeteater!

Sweeteater, your name seems really familar to me. Have we met on another forum? (LOL.. that completely sounds like a "come on" line doesn't it. Glad I'm not asking you this in a bar... )

Amy, you look great! Congratulations on your accomplishments!

Thanks so much Simon!

AWESOME! It is an accomplishment to be proud of! It's all a part of the journey of life...
