Hi ladies!! Just yet another member of the great and might TEAM APPLE, coming to introduce myself! My name is Meredith, and I'm 19 years old and in my second year of college... Woohoo... I'm not following any really specific plan, just taking smatterings of weight-loss ideas here and there, and combining it all in the special "Meredith" plan, LOL! I'd say like 90% of my weight-loss has come from changing my eating habits--I really will have to start exercising more as I get closer to goal.
What else... Well, I think the biggest challenge I face with weight loss is that I have really bad tendencies towards emotional eating! When I'm sad or stressed, I want to eat for comfort, and when I'm really happy, I want to eat to "celebrate," or cuz I've "earned" it, or whatever.
It is REALLY hard to overcome these urges, and of course I've had my share of failures, LOL, but as it stands I am now about 90 lbs down and it's looking like I might actually meet my goal someday! Crazy! Hehe.
I guess that's it for me! For now, at least. I'm so excited to be on this team! I pretty much eat an apple EVERY day, no joke (it keeps the doctor away, ya know
)! We are going to ROCK this challenge!
