I was a good 190 in 2000 after the birth of my last child. Took a couple of years to get most of that fat off (weigthwatchers points)..but was really just a smaller version of my fat self. So I started weight training off and on, along the way I learned a lot about exercise but more importantly about nutrition. I got serious about 3 years ago - weight trained very heavy, ate very clean - built some muscle and cut some fat...nearly at goal. Then about 15 months ago I burned out on all that, then the economy struck and worry over job and family stress hit...I gained about 20-25 lbs
Now have stress under control am back on a very clean eating plan and getting back into working out at a reasonable level. Want to drop that last 20, lean out and then be on maintenance for life! :D
