in Success Stories
Just wanted to share my story, in hopes it might inspire someone.

I reached my highest weight of 200+ pounds in February, after having my first child. I was always overweight, even as a child, and had yoyo dieted most of my life. After having my son, I got serious about my health. I started eating healthy (lots of protein, cut back on carbs and sugar) and exercising.

It's been less than a year, and I'm happy with my progress. I still haven't reached my "goal weight" ...which I'm 10 pounds away from. But I'm at the point where I'm not focusing on my weight anymore, and more interested in being healthy and happy.

I'm 5'5"
My before pictures I was around 200
The recent photos I'm about 135
