Just wanted to say a quick hello. :wave: I am on week 1 of my 2nd attempt on my low carb journey. Last year I was at 318 and was down to about 255-260, then the holidays struck. :eek: I tried to behave and even had an extremely successful low carb turkey day. :thup: The month of December was my downfall. I went to visit family for 2 weeks and even with all my good intentions and a firm resolve, I caved in and ate what everyone else did. :( It has taken me 6 mos. to get back the determination to start over again, literally at square 1. While at the moment I don't own a scale, at last weigh in I was 295. That was in June and I FEEL bigger now so I estimated my start weight at 315.
I have lurked around this forum for the past year and while I never joined in I have read so many of everyones posts, I finally decided to become a member and try to participate. I am generally not a talker, so I will probably never earn my steaks under my name. I will however be reading virtually everything(!) and will of course write if someone writes to me or if there is a question I have or might know the answer to.
I am currently unemployed and staying home with kids. My bf works 2 jobs and in the fall I may get a job while my 5 yr. old is in school. Depends on the car situation I guess. I am hoping this go around will be my final and successful attempt at becoming healthy.
Anyhoo.. hello everyone. Thanks for being here, it was the successes I saw that has brought me back out of the darkness, so to speak.
