Hi everyone!
 

Hi there! My name is Tara. I am 28 and a stay-at-home mom in San Diego. I started on the South Beach Diet on June 1st & I have lost 6.5 pounds :)

I look forward to meeting you all :D

Hi Tara--welcome to the board! :) Congrats on your loss! (Now where else in the world will you hear that??-- :lol: )

Welcome
 

Welcome to the board Tara. I tried Atkins (which is similiar to South Beach) but I found that I LOVE Carbs and I was having major problems not getting my Carbs.

I'm currently on Weight Watchers for the 2nd time and am taking the SLOW road to weight loss. I rejoined 10 weeks ago and have lost 8.2 lbs. I would like to lose another 20 at least but don't know if it's possible.

I'm getting ready to turn 41 and my metabolism seems to be slowing WAY down! :dunno: I've got to figure out a way to speed it back up.

Everyone that posts is very helpful and a lot of fun. I just love reading their stories and advice. Check out the online journals if you haven't all ready.

And way to go on your current weight loss! :cb:

Thank you!

momasita-I did WW several times & I just kept giving up. I hated counting points. I really believe that everything works different for people & you gotta go with what works for you :) WTG on your loss!

You're are so right
 

Tara you are so right in that different things work for different people. As I said, I've done WW before but I'm having much better success this time around. I know that it's all a state of mind -- once you decide to do something there is nothing that can stop you. :cb:

Best of luck to you on your new journey!
