I started this three years ago and had wonderful success, with over 65 pounds lost. I even got to go to LA and meet Michael and the gang. The following year, I suffered a major depression, started graduate school, became a step-mother, and became hypothyroid. Life came down hard on me and two years later I have gained back almost all of the weight that I lost. Now I'm back, restarted on 1/31/05 and very excited. I'm about to graduate from grad school and in the process of getting a divorce, so I figure now is as good a time as ever to get healthy again.
