MADE MY GOAL! 6/5/09

I was always a chubby kid until my teen years where I pretty much just starved myself to lose weight. I have severe hypoglycemia so this led to lots of passing out/seizures! (When I was younger they thought I was epileptic...until they found out it was just hypoglycemia). I fluctuated anywhere from 119-149 in my late teens/early 20's. Then, after getting married and gaining 50 lbs with my first and only pregnancy, I gained about another 50 due to severe clinical depression. I didn't realize I needed to have protein with every meal and usually just ate carbs (thinking they're low fat!) which of course just packed on the pounds due to my severely crippled metabolism. I lost 90 lbs back in 2002 using the 6wbmo and had about 50 more lbs to lose...and then a friend moved in who cooked for us all the time to show her thanks. That was the end of my losing and beginning of the gaining back. I was 8 lbs from my all time high again when I decided I needed to start back on the 6wbmo. I'm so glad I did! We are planning to go back to Hawaii in Nov of '09 and I'm sure if I stick to the plan...I should be at my goal by then!
