Hello,

My name is Christine. I'm a newby. I just started South Beach four weeks ago. I'm currently 290, down from a high of 314. My goal weight is 140.

I am 34 yo, single living in Kansas. I am a homeowner. I am working on being debt free, only $475 left to go. I enjoy the outdoors but the weight has become a handicap. I am disabled by schizophrenia and only work part-time as a PBX Operator for a hospital. If I lose weight, the medication may begin to work. I am having side effects but no reduction in the voices. I enjoy crafts, movies, frugal living websites and blogs, camping, hiking, mountain biking, water aerobics, step classes, yoga, weight lifting, gardening and cooking.

I look forward to sharing with all of you.

Welcome, Christine. Congrats on the weight you've lost already! Look forward to reading your posts. Good luck!

Christine!

You may enjoy many areas around 3FC. There's the 100lb Club, 300+ area, and there's a section for South Beachers, too!

Take a look around. Post where you're comfortable. Best of success!

Welcome!

I really enjoy *trying* to be frugal too.
