150 lbs lost, 50 lbs to go (pics)

Options
Hello Everyone,

I am new to MFP but not new to dieting. I lost 150 pounds in just over 7 months. The first 30 were just from eating low calorie, the next 120 were from low carb (Atkins Induction). I realized that i can't eat low carb for ever and I am back to low calorie. I'm finding its getting a lot harder to lose these days. Being on low carb i really didnt worry about calories and i think i am going overboard on the them now without really knowing. Im hoping MFP helps me keep on track towards losing these last 50 lbs.

Here is me at 420 lbs on the first day i started.

And here is me a few days ago at 270 lbs (fresh after working out) lol

    WTG! you can just look at you and see that your whole mind set has changed. you can tell you are more proud just from looking at your side view. in the 1st, your head is drooped down, and in the 2nd, your head is raised high and proud.
    someday i hope to have that proud feeling like we can see in you.
    lookin good! keep up the great work!
