Hi all,

Currently 183, with my goal of 185 being surpassed. I actually uploaded an After picture today (after renewing my membership)

On vacation up in Northern Michigan, and still eating low carb. I used to be I would get to a goal and think "Now I can eat like a normal person"

No more, I will continue to eat Low Carb because that is how I need to eat now.

Love you all... thank you for helping me get here, without you guys I wouldn't be here.

Here is my After

Just come into the thread and put your name and stats on the list. We each weighin once a week, you get to pick the day.
If you don't weighin for 4 weeks in a row, your name drops from the list. You can always return if you want.

But I know that you will show up each week cause you will not regain this weight!!!

Thanks all.. I will try to remember that...

Let me get off of vacation and assess any damage (LOL... I have been eating low carb all this time) and see where I am at on the scale.

My workouts have been crap lately due to sickness and random life.. So let me get back in the swing of things..
