My Mom has lost 100 lbs on Low Carb!

I'm so proud of my Mom for changing her way of eating and getting healthier! She feels better, has more energy and she's now reached her goal weight with the 100 lb weight loss.

Of all the people who have emailed, messaged me or posted thanking me for inspiring them..... this is one of the ones that has touched me the most, because well...... she's my Mommy. :)

These before pictures are about 40 lbs lighter than she was at her biggest, but I can't find any pictures of her from that time that show enough of her to compare. I never thought she was "THAT" big.... but then again I was also way bigger than she was too.






And I've posted this one before, but I'm going to post it again! I just don't get tired of seeing this one of her and I together. :)

    Thank you Michele, Floriana, Ms Debbie and "Say What?" for your very kind comments.

    It's been wonderful shedding these unwanted lbs, that is for sure. But, more importantly, I am so very glad that my daughter and myself are healthier now.

    CJ truly has been my inspiration and motivation.

    Thanks CJ, I Love You!

    Hello there,

    I found your blog yesterday as I was looking for people who had success with low carb lifestyles! I lost about 40 lbs with weight watchers but then came to a halt. I'm at a healthy BMI but I would still like to lose a bit more and so I am doing Atkins. I'm on day 4 and I already feel a lot better. Your blog is really inspiring so I'll be checking back.

    :)

    Hi CJ, Wow I am so proud of you and your mom, the two of you have done an amazing job. I was curious if you had an email address where I could ask you a couple of questions. I am doing the atkins program and need a little assistance.

    Thank you very much for the kind words Shonna Lee, you are doing great too. Keep up the good work.

    myhealthblog2011, congrats on your weight loss. I am sure you will do well following the Atkins plan :)

    verniemlee, thank you for the kind words and good luck with following the Atkins way of eating too.

    Healthtec Software EMR, yes, this "diet plan and health regime" definitely works, but, we consider it a "way of eating" rather than a "diet plan". Diets are just for loosing weight, but with a way of eating plan, you keep on track for the rest of your life and maintain your proper weight. I am so thankful for the knowledge we have now and wish we would of known what we know now, years ago! Better later than never.
