Hello. . .
I just thought I would do a introduction.
My name is Kristine. I am a 36 year old stay at home mom to three wonderful boys (3, 2, and 9 months). I have struggled with my weight since I started college. I have tried numerous diets and had some success but then I went back to my old eating habits.
A brief history of my dieting. . .I did TOPS (calorie counting) when I was 23 and successful lost 30 lbs. Then I started dating and got married and I wasn't concerned with how I was eating and the pounds crept back on. When I was 30, I tried the South Beach Diet and lost 30 lbs. It seemed to work with my lifestyle. After losing those 30 lbs, I became pregnant and then pregnant again, and then pregnant again. With each pregnancy I added more lbs and never lost the weight I had gained with the previous pregnancies. Fast forward to the present, I am about 75 lbs away from where i would like to be. i have been trying to start the SBD for a few months now. I have had some mild success but I am realizing that it is not conducive to my lifestyle now. I have rejoined TOPS and am planning on doing calorie counting once again. I am hoping to see some success with this way of eating.
I plan to start tomorrow. I look forward to meeting you all and sharing our successes.
