About 7 1/2 years ago I saw a photo of me and freaked out. I didn't realize how much weight I was packing on until it was right in front of my eyes on paper. From that very moment I decided to make a change. I started the South Beach Diet and lost 30 lbs in 3 months (185 to 155). I have been doing the SBD on and off ever since and am now down to 146 and have been toggling between 135 and 146 ever since. I have tried almost every diet, from hCG and cleanses to eating clean to 6 week body makeover. I have also tried every kind of workout regime there is. The last 20 lbs have been the hardest and I have been struggling with those last lbs for the past 7 years. I'm hoping to get the last bit of weight off before my husband and I start having children. I am determined!!
