Howdy everyone,
How are ya'll doin? I'm going to treat this introduction somewhat like a 12 Step meeting. "Hello, my name is Shawn, and I'm... well,.. I'm ah addicted to doughnuts." :daze: Which is true, and also why I am here and on The Atkins WOE.
So anywho, I think I have all the silly stuff out of my system, now I'll post some more topical things. Well, about me personally, I run a lot, even when I'm sick (like yesterday), I lift weights, teach and train in American Kenpo Karate (which is my favorite topic of conversation), I'm a graphic designer but no where near as artistic as my wife (HelloKitty on this forum), and I'm planning on going back to college soon only I don't know in what?
As far as Low Carb related musings, I've been on this WOE for two weeks now. I'm doing so for many reasons, the most important is to be supportive for my wife's wants and needs. I'm gonna be upfront here, right now my weight is at the lowest it's been in years, due to a rather unsafe working environment situation. And I know how annoying it can be for those really trying to accomplish something like this and see people saying "Well I'm 102 pounds wet and I would like to get down to 95 because that's the year I graduated High School." I'm not trying to be rude, so please don't send me angry letters about who healthy it is to be 95 pounds (that and because that isn't really that healthy). I'm just saying it can be hard sometimes for those who are trying to do something truly monumental, and then read posts from folks like me who, in the grand scheme of things, aren't. So believe me, I am going to do my absolute best and be here for support, maybe insight (but I doubt it, I'm too dopey :D ), and to try to brighten everyone's day a little. :thup:
The other reasons for my being on this WOE are very lengthy and longwinded. So before I rewrite War and Peace, I will stop, take a deep breath, and work on getting to.. well, work. Anyways, thought I'd introduce myself and say hi. Feel free to introduce yourselves, anyone who is interested.
See ya later,
Shawn
