  • Saying HI!

    D'oh! I should've done this a long time ago!

    My name is Amy Jackey, AJ for short, I'm 37, married, 2 small kids, live in middle Tennessee, USA. I got fat at about 10 years old, and been going up ever since. In 5th grade, I weighed 145, all through high school I weighed about 180. I didn't look that heavy, at least. lol (an amusement park Guess Your Weight worker guessed me at 145. yay!)

    I started Atkins at 284.5, and am now down to 269.5 as of this morning. My highest weight ever was 308 But I've got control of it now, and it's GOIN' DOWN!

    Very glad to be here with all you wonderful people!

    xo,

      Oh yeah, you're the one with the wife from McMinnvul. LOL I think they just had something bad happen there...was it a tornado? I can't remember now. I hardly ever watch the news...it depresses me. But I caught something out of the corner of my eye at my MIL's on TV... Arrrgh! I can't remember! My ginkgo biloba is NOT working! lol
