I've lost 100 pounds and will be in SHAPE Magazine!!!!

Amy_B · July 2012

Hey, all! I've posted my success story a few times on here. I do want to be honest and let you know that I did put some of my weight back on, but I am working on taking it off again. I am specifically looking at lowering my sugar intake (since it's addicting and was a major reason for my gain the past year) and sticking with my exercise program. Anyway, I sent my success story into SHAPE Magazine last year, and I was chosen to be in August 2012's issue as a weight loss success. It'll come out at the end of this month (maybe July 24-26?). Be sure to check me out in there! You'll learn what I did to succeed.

Here are some pictures, since I know you like to see them (at least I know I do).

260 pounds (in 2005)

160-165 pounds (April 2012)

Here's a link to my story from last year. Since then, my dad has passed away from a heart attack also with many diabetes complications: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/288075-my-mom-s-death-sparked-my-weight-loss-of-110-lbs?error_user_id=161165&error_username=Amy_B&hl=moms+death+110+pounds

Thanks, everyone! If you want to add me as a friend, go for it. I don't post my journal though, as I use different tactics. However, I do post my exercise journal, and I try to comment regularly.
