Hey guys! Nice to meet you. My name is Anah, I'm 25 years old and I decided to join this group to meet people like me, to gain knowledge about dieting that I haven't learned, and to gain hope for myself. I also feel it will help me dedicate myself more seeing others doing the same thing.
So, as for dieting, I know the in's and out's. I know what to eat, what not to eat, and what will make you lose the most weight, fastest. The thing is, some of us don't want to lose the MOST weight, fastest ; but to KEEP the weight off is the more important aspect! I do admit that at first, losing the weight quickly is important to me, and then maintaining a steady weight loss, which is why I'm currently doing the Atkin's diet. BLAH! Day 2, and I am ALREADY sick of meat. It makes me almost not want to eat, at all. I keep thinking "cupcake?" but then I remember, I'm going to Florida in less than a month and I am SUPER EXCITED to look good in a bikini! I've also been SO back and forth in weight that my skin on my stomach is a bit saggy, so therefore I have to be a "small" weight for my height to have my stomach look good. I'm 5'7 and I weigh 140, But I'd like to be 130 again. This is my "happy" weight. We all have different weights we are happy at - this is mine.
I'd like to keep in contact with people who are doing the Atkin's diet, people that are interested in having a "dieting" friend or simply just someone to talk to. I'm a mother of 2, I'm quite mature for my age, and I'd love to listen!
