I have been battling my weight for a long time. Late 2003 I started a low carb diet and went from 248 pounds to 190 by August of 2004. I found out I was pregnant shortly thereafter and gained back the weight and a few extra pounds. When I gave birth to my son I was 265 pounds. I managed to lose the weight, but I still have my original goal to work on. My lowest weight has been 172 but I'm currently back in the 180s.
