Almost Two Years Later

I weigh 262 lb.

Same old story. High protein works for me until 240-245. At that point I can stabilize by continuing on high protein but if I try anything else, I put on weight. So once more, I want to shrink back to the lower 240's. Then I hope to take another course.

I weighed 264 on Sunday January 13. I lost four lb. and suddenly gained two back. I have been high protein for 10 days now. I started a food log last Wednesday.
