Well today is my 3rd anniversary McDougalling. And I’m sitting here with crying.
I started on the program on February 7, 2007. I had been dieting on and off for 34 years before I found this website. In those years, I was constantly either going down or going up. Conservatively, I would guess that I lost (and gained and lost again and gained again) cumulatively over 500 pounds during those years.
The past two years I have been maintaining the weight lost in my first year. I am just so amazed that I’m still at my goal weight. I'VE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE!
Better still, I have the confidence that I can do this for the rest of my life.
So for the first time in my life I’m crying happy tears over my weight.
A big, huge, humongous thank you to Dr. McDougall and Mary and to all of my fellow McDougallers for your friendship and support. Being part of this community means so much to me and I love you all.
