I'm here to tell you about my diet success story that explains how I went from weighing 210 lbs, to a tiny 140 lbs. Want to know how I did it? Keep on reading. Back in the beginning of 2008, I realized I wasn't happy. Everything I could think of always tracked back to my weight. I was 5'9" and 210 lbs. I was Obese, and I know I needed to change. I tried starving myself, but I relapsed and eventually pigged out on everything in sight. All the diets I tried out never worked, and I was desperate to lose the weight.

Around the month of February, I purchased a scale so I could finally weigh myself. I had been eating 1600 calories every day and I felt good about myself. When I
