How I did it: Was recommended to me many years ago to read it… I think I was about 17 at the time. So I got it from the library and read it! This lead to my reading the other books in the series! And now after many years I know that Douglas Adams was a contributing writer to the Dr. Who series and I absolutely adore Dr. Who! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I'm 36lbs closer to my ultimate goal. It wasn't hard work for me. I am not exercising. I am just eating low carb! It works a treat when you do it right! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I've adopted a low carb way of eating.

I started on my new low carb way of life on Jan 21st 2009. My starting weight that day was 302.5 lbs after 13wks I am down to 266lbs! Thats an incredible 36lbs!!! My goal weight is anywhere between 180-190lbs. My advice to anyone is to investigate low carb eating and really making it your way of life. I only did it because of other health issues that put it in my face and said you do this or you are going to be diabetic! So I did for that reason but now with such great weight loss results I know this is the best diet I have ever tried. By the way I haven’t added any exercise into my life yet. I will eventually, but right now I want to make sure I have my way of eating down pat and second nature.
