But then my husband and I started our own at-home business and as the stress in our home escalated, so did my weight. Just before my daughter was born, I tipped the scales at 198 pounds. After she was born, I still weighed 188, and the weight dropped slowly but steadily that year. Without really thinking about it, I started gaining weight every fall (10-15 pounds) and losing in every summer. This seems to be a natural cycle with me. Now my weight was hovering around 170.
In March 1997, I joined a gym and started on the path to real fitness. A year later, after losing and gaining the same 15 pounds without really thinking about it, I decided it was time to try a diet again. I found Gail's Weight Loss Page on March 2, 1998, and haven't looked back. That day, I weighed 167 pounds. As of today (September 1, 1998), I have lost 32 pounds and have only 5 to go. The real challenge still lies ahead . . . can I lose those last pounds, and keep them off through the fall and then the holidays?
