Hello. This might be my first post? I've been lurking here for a long time. I am usually here looking for new, delicious recipes to add variety to the dinner routine. I love reading the success stories and looking at before and after pictures. There are such amazing people in this forum.
I'm 5'0 and about 150lbs right now. With my weight and height I wear between a size 12 and size 16 depending on the cut and fabric type. I hate shopping for clothes, it's nearly impossible. My clothes have holes in them, because I can't bring myself to get rid of clothes that actually fit.
I've tried to lose weight in the past, never with a lot of dedication. I was able to make it through 2 weeks of SBD, with nice results. Unfortunately, I'm such a picky eater that diets with strict regimens often result in starvation. And starvation seems to yield muscle loss. So when I regained the weight it was even worse than before. For the first couple of months I am going to try "sensible eating". If that does give good enough results, then I will attempt SBD again.
Since I am getting married in October, I am determined that this time I will be successful. I've started a light exercise/strength training program. I hope by the time I reach my goal to have awesome arms, awesome back... and a stronger knee (my knee is currently wonky and refuses to support me if I move it wrong).
Nice to meet you all!
