This is my second time around, too. I did Protein Power my Senior year of high school in '99. My starting weight was 195 and I got down to 155 REALLY fast. I then stalled. I continued doing the plan for a total of one year, but then went through somethings and got off it. I went from LC to cookies for lunch and ice cream for dinner. I gained back the weight and by the time I found out I was pregnant with my son in '03 I weighed 226. I started my pregnancy with my daughter at 244. My weight just kept going up.

When I found myself staying home when my DH took the kids to the park (or just out anywhere), I knew I needed to make a change.

I weighed in today (I can't seem to stay away from the scale for more than a day, LOL) and am down another 3lbs to 248! 4 more pounds until I reach my first mini goal!
