    Toya's Journey

    I have been lurking around this site for the past 2 months and finally got the courage to post. I am not big on taking pictures but I will post some soon. I have lots of "fat" pictures but just took some "normal" pictures today.

    I started Atkins on April 3, 2007 at an all time high 208 lbs. This morning I weighed in at 178lbs. I am so excited!! That is the most weight I have ever lost on any diet. I have a goal weight of 145 lbs., although my husband seems to think I will look too skinny. But we'll see.

    This site has continued to encourage and inspire me. Hopefully I can do the same for others.
