      DEE FISH: HOW I LOST 54 POUNDS

      My husband and I had an amazing time dancing and toasting the New Year at the Florida Aquarium in Tampa. But the next morning, when I started to download photos from the party on the computer, I had one thought.

      I looked disgusting.

      At 5-foot-2, 179 pounds and up 40 pounds in just a few years, I hadn’t seen myself in a photograph in a while. For some reason, it crystallized for me how out of control my weight had gotten.

      I started gaining weight in 2007 after my grandmother, the woman who raised me had died. Then I was involved in a bad car accident in 2009 which didn’t help matters. I was so depressed and I was eating out all the time. I had built my entire social life around the next meal.

      “Was that possible?” I asked.

      “Yes, you can do it!” Sonia told me.

      We grilled the nurse for 45 minutes, fired question after question at her. Why had I not heard of this diet before? Where had it come from? Would I lose fat or muscle? She had an answer for everything. I couldn’t decide whether she was a really good salesperson or just truly passionate about this diet. It all seemed too good to be true.

      As we walked out, my husband told me there was no way I could do the diet described and not lose muscle. But I decided to try it. What did I have to lose?
