I'm back (and an update)

[Puebla]

Hi, everyone!

As some of you may know, I had gained 60 lbs on prednisone (and I'm sure all my hospital stays last year really helped ruin my metabolism, too). I went off the prednisone in the beginning of June and started following WW.

I have lost 18 pounds so far, but have about 50 more to go to get to a healthy BMI (and 60 more would bring me back to my college size 5 pants).

I'm going to start South Beach (thank you, Dan!!). I don't think the bread will be hard to drop, but not eating fruit is going to be like torture.

I will start tonight with dinner and go from there.

Not sure if you all posted starting weights or not, but my highest ever was 208. I currently weigh 190, and my ultimate goal weight is somewhere between 140-150.

Hang in there, fellow SB buddy!

I've officially started it today, Dan. This is going to be a tough two weeks. I am so addicted to sugar and bread. But...I can and will do it.

It has taken me about 6 months to lose this so far. I still have a long way to go, too.
