Another month down... I started September 1, 2010 at 260 lbs, in size 24 pants, and 2 - 3XL shirts. Now I'm 182 lbs, in size 14 pants (with a belt), and size M - L shirts. I'm 5'6", and 31 years old.

I have epilepsy, and made the switch to a low carb ketogenic diet to control my seizures, and it has! In addition, I no longer have high cholesterol. I haven't felt this good since I was 9 years old. :)

I eat 20 - 35 net carbs (total carbs - fibre - sugar alcohols) per day.

Thanks for looking!
