A little #faceliftfriday action. Large photo was earlier this week. Bottom left is me at at least 326 pounds less than two years ago. Bottom right photo is me a few months later after starting @atkinsinsider #lowcarb #lifestyle and @ddpyoga - in total, I've lost 180 pounds! I feel so much better and was even able to quit taking a ton of prescription medications.

Set your sights on your destination and let the journey drive you home. You have the power to improve you!
