Thank you all for your replies! Posting my pics has been a huge motivator for me as well. I'm feeling great and only have so much more confidence in the things I'm doing. You just wait to see my 1 year anniversary pics!

HOLY CRAP Angela, you look freakin' amazing!!!! (sorry for the harsh words

I think I'll cut & paste your pics and use it as wallpaper on my computer to inspire me - though I can picture the funny look from my boyfriend 'Honey, who's this chick on the computer?' haha!

I look forward to my 6-month mark (and beyond) and I hope my pics will be as motivational for others as yours are for me.

Keep up the great LCing!


I want my rack back, damnit!

Hi Angela

I am brand new to this forum so have been reading through many posts. I love your pictures. You can REALLY see a big
difference. I think I will start taking pictures at intervals so I can
see myself at different stages too.

Congrats and keep up the great work! You look great!!

Hi, Say Hi 2 M...hi! Ahem... lots of hi's. Our stats look pretty similar, looks like you're off to a running start! During induction I basically stuck to eggs, big salads, meats, and veggies. No fancy tricks, just sticking to the good old lists really does the work for you. If you browse through the beginning of my journal, you can see some good beginner OWL menus for when you want to pump it up. I think I started OWL pretty well. As for induction, I only stayed on it for about 3 weeks and barely remember what I ate... just normal stuff, I guess. If you keep a fitday or start a journal, I'd be happy to offer up some advice though.

My other trick that's REALLY worked is working out. Lifting weights is an amazing way to shape the body and it's where I've seen most of my inch progress. Haven't really lost weight, but those sizes are peeling down.

Thanks for stopping by... I will keep an eye out for you to start a journal.

Well, I had to stay after to school to find time to look at your pictures, but it was worth it! Way to go! I am so happy for you. I believe the exercising combined with the low-carb is the only way to go! Don't worry, I will definitely be looking for the 1 year anniversary pictures! Hey, I really like your new avatar too!

I am missing writing in my journal. Gotta get that problem figured out! Hope you are having fun at home!

Hi!

I just checked out your pics and I am really impressed. I scrolled through your journal and read about all the effort and hard work you have put in.

I am new to LCing and you ahve provided some inspiration. I think that I will take a before pic to have something to compare my smaller body to in a couple of months.

Keep up the great work and take care!
