When I was in highschool I was a normal weight. I met my first boyfriend while in highschool...fast forward 3 years and he cheats on me. I gained from 155 lbs to 255 lbs in a year. Yikes.
I had to go off the bc pill because my blood pressure was so high. My Mom (I miss her so much) finally told me she was worried about me. I half assed a few attempts at "dieting" While at a used bookstore I found a copy of Atkin's 72 for 99c. I bought it, read it, and then bought DANDR.
June 6 2oo1 was my first day of low carb. I did GREAT! I felt GREAT. I cut down my walk to work from 30 minutes to 15 minutes. I was getting compliments. My boss at work actually grabbed me off the floor (grocery) while I was working and took me in the back room. Man, I thought I was in some major trouble, lol. She kept fussing over me...lots of people did.
My lowest weight was 175! Amazing!
My Mom was sick this whole time. Battling cancer is hard on a family. In January I left the loser who cheated on me and moved back into the family house. My Mom passed away March 23 2oo2, a week after her 49th birthday.
I was devastated. My eating went to ****. I started partying all the time. Drinking dulled the pain. I didn't have to think. I gained weight slowly.
Just over a year later at 210 lbs I met my now wonderful boyfriend and Daddy of my Baby. I was only 4 lbs heavier after I delivered my daughter than I was when we concieved her.
Almost two years of being a bored SAHMama and the lbs packed back on.
I want to have energy to play with my daughter and clean the house! Most of all I want to live a long life for her. So, here I am!

This is the best decision you could've made for yourself, for the sake of your health and wellbeing, and certainly for the sake of your daughter. What inspiration!
