And because I didn't stay true to those good eating habits (17 Day Diet plan), I have to lose 40 of those lbs again. I just discovered this group within DU, have subscribed to it and will look forward to positive reinforcement as I (we all) continue this journey towards better health.

Systematic Chaos, you're doing great!!!
I haven't heard of the McDougall Plan, but will check it out.
