A life full of dieting...

On the whole my life has been one big diet. I was a chubbie kid and a chubbie teen. I weighed 160 when I graduated from high school in 1987. I dieted down to 125 before February 1988 when I met my (now) ex-husband. I weighed 150 when I got married in 1989. By the summer of 1990 I was up over 200 pounds. In 1994 I dieted down to 135. Between 2003 & 2006 I had gained back 15 + pounds. I rejoined Weight Watchers again in Sept 2006 and got down to 132 pounds. After two years of good maintenance in August 2008 I had plastic surgery to remove excess skin. I had a full tummy tuck, upper abdominal lift, breast lift, breast augmentation and lypo of the side flanks. The surgery was well worth all the pain. In the past couple of years I have gained 25 lbs and am now starting my way back down the scale again. I'm eating healthier than I ever have and I'm feeling good. :happy:
