From 1981 to 2007..what a difference 26 years makes ...?

DH had a crazy idea tonight. We found a picture of me taken in 1981 when I was 25 years old .. and put it side by side with a current picture of me in 2007 at 51 years old (6 years into the Atkins lifestyle and after becoming a late-blooming runner...) See for yourself.


April, 1981, age 25


May, 2007, age 51

Is it possible to get the body you once had? Yes, if you're willing to work your @ss off for it.

What a beautiful post!

Wow! That is great! Do you have any heavy pics from the years in between? Everybody tells me I look 19 again since I lost my weight. Not bad since I am 30.

That could be a great motivator for everone! What was your highest weight?

Wow Betty. That is amazing ~ your photos are very inspiring. I've always said that they should advertise the Atkins as a 'fountain of youth' and everyone would be doing the program. You are proof of the amazing results from doing the Atkins' lifestyle!

I'm working on looking that good the first time round
