heheheh I've been posting since yesterday and haven't come here to introduce myself!
Hi! *waves* My name is Rae. I just turned 32 two weeks ago. I'm a married mother of three gorgeous kids, ages 11, 8 and 5 and it's because of these gorgeous creatures that I've had an ongoing battle with my weight, heh. In 2003, I was 252 pounds, and I tried the Atkins diet, and within 8 months I had shed an amazing 78 pounds, but I found out the hard way, that long-term low carb just isn't feasible for most people, and I have since gained back 20 of those pounds.
I've done a lot of dieting: WW, Atkins,
http://www.herbalmagic.ca/, and now I've come to a point where I'm just sick and tired of being sick and tired, and have decided on eating when I'm hungry, excercise (mainly walking right now), and not take everything so damned seriously!
I contribute my change of heart to my wonderful friends and family who support me every which way I turn. And on that note, I'm glad to have found this place and hope I can get to know all of you better!
Many blessings!
Rae )O(
