My Story: 

I gained a lot of weight after a car accident that fractured my neck in 3 places. Luckily I was not paralyzed and I'm grateful everyday for that. Before my accident I was in amazing shape. I worked out all the time. Ate well. I felt good and looked fantastic. After my accident I gained about 50lbs over the course of 2 or 3 years. It sucked and I really struggled with my self esteem and image. Few years later my Fiancée and I had a baby boy and to my amazement I LOST all my baby weight in a matter of a few weeks and actually weighed less that I did before I got pregnant. I was so happy and couldn't believe it but the scale still read 185 so I felt better, but not great. Once I stopped breast feeding the weight came back, and quickly. Within 2 months I was back up to 205lbs. I felt horrible and I was angry with myself. My mom introduced me to Ideal Protein a few years ago but I didn't take it seriously. A dear friend of hers own the clinics and helped encourage me to get back into it to lose the weight I've been wanting to lose so bad and get me back to my goal of 160lbs, in preparation of my upcoming wedding in 3 months!!! I've been at it for 3 weeks now and (my next weigh in is tomorrow) so far I've lost 10lbs and 8inches overall. I've lost 2% of my body weight already, not including what I find out I've lost tomorrow :)
