28 year old trying something new

Kaypix

Ello,

I'm Kara, from South Dakota. I'm 28 years old, have a sedentary job and about 25 pounds to lose. I started my journey at 198.8 LBS back in April and got down to 160.2 in the first week of August by using Ideal Protein. The downside was that my hair fell out, I was an emotional wreck (hormones are stored in fat, so as the fat burned rapidly, the hormones raged). I'm 5'7" and I want to get my BMI down to about 22-23 ideally at least.
I have no kids, 2 dogs, 2 cats and 1 husband who loves me despite my craziness. I'm hoping that just eating healthy and tracking it , along with working out (3 days a week at a local gym, 3.5 mph at a 3.0 incline) will help me shed this weight.
