    Amazing!

    May I ask what sort of diet you went on afterwards? Was it just a general healthy diet that you counted calories on? I am curious because I'm interested in eating low carb currently, but saw that you had only stuck with it for one year. I'm having a hard time keeping my carbs around 50 gr/day, ha, so I can understand why you would want to switch. If it works and keeps ya healthy though, hey, why not. You've done a spectacular job!

    First... congrats on the weight loss!

    Second...
    They even created healthier versions of their old favorites, like pizza.

    Please oh please tell me this wasn't cauliflower pizza?!?

    I did low carb (20 grams or less per day) for about a year. Now I watch my net calories using MFP and Endomondo.
