Talking hi i'm pam and i'm a carbaholic.

wow, i'm so happy that i found this message board! what a wonderful source of information and support.

over the past few years, i have become seriously carb addicted. so i just started schwarzbein (on day 4). despite some minor carb craving i felt great for the first 2 days. today i am feeling really depressed. i have been on zoloft for like 7 years and i suspect that it wasn't really working anymore and that's why my body was crying out for carbs all the time. so hopefully it's just a reaction to the change and it will level out.

anyway, i was laid off from my job as a tv producer shortly after 9/11 in a big 30% cut, so i'm still unemployed. so i will probably be around here a lot.

by the way, i'm pam. hi

Hi Pam!

You've come to the right place...I've been LCing on Atkins for about a month or so...

Seems like we have a bit in common!! I worked on a Canadian comedy show for 4 years (Royal Canadian Air Farce) and also produced a sports documentary in '99.

I had to give it all up for the stability of my current job (ie 9-5 drudgery) so I could pay the mortgage.....
Sorry to hear you're out of work, but you'll find something soon...

I was on Paxil for 3 years (in which time I gained the lovely 50lbs I am now carrying) then it stopped working a few months ago and I switched to Celexa. Seems OK.

Your website ROCKS, I'm going to check it out more!!

Best of luck - you'll do great, and feel free to drop by my journal to chat anytime.

Lu
