Talking My Before & Now Pictures - 70 Pounds Abandoned!!

Hi,

My name is David. I've been on Atkins Induction since February, 2003.

I started low carbing around 2 years ago but never stayed consistent. My longest LC streak was 3 weeks, even that seemed like an eternity. When I take a look back and ask myself why I couldnt do Atkins, I find that I was not ready to wholeheartedly commit myself to the LC WOL. Basically I was out of control in a spiraling circle coming down.

I have put together some pictures from my dark past............ j/k

Here is the link: Before & Now PICS

Thanks for stopping by,
David

David, I looked at your before and after pics, and I also did the little test picture too. I'm not sure if my mind was corrupted before seeing your pics, or if it's cuz you're a hottie, but keep it up!! You have a great smile and I know you must have been feeling great when you took those 'after' pics. Let those memories guide you if you get tempted to stray...

way to go!
(hope I'm not out of line, just having some fun!)

David!

You look wonderful! Almost like a completely different person. Congrats.

Never did see a dolphin. Does that make me deprived or depraved?
