Since having my children 19 years ago, I have struggled with my weight. I have had lap band surgery, lost 75 pounds, and gained it all back. It is so easy to "eat around" the band. After losing a close friend, I dieted with Ideal Protein and lost 100 pounds. But that diet was so restrictive once I reached my goal weight, I gained it back. I'm at the point in my life where I need to make this a lifestyle change. I am motivated to get this weight off because I feel like for the first time I am going into this diet truly for myself and not being motivated by others. I want to feel better. I want to see my children get married. I want to enjoy my future grandchildren. This time this is for me!
