Hi Everyone!
I am a new member as well. So a little about myself, I live in Baltimore, MD. I am a mom of two girls and a step mom to 2 boys. I was always on the smaller side, but for the past couple of years I started putting on weight and was not able to get it back down. I think it was from an IUD that had my hormones all crazy, but couldn't prove it. I hated what I looked like and got so used to just wearing over sized sweatshirts to hide it. My honey, bless him, keeps telling me I was fine the way I was, and that he loves me no matter what, but I was not happy with myself. He thinks I am crazy for doing this diet, so he hasn't been the best support, but I'm sure he will love the results. My 2 girls are very proud of me for sticking with it and losing weight so far so that's great.
I love reading everyone's posts and finding so much information and motivation on here it is helping me out a lot. I started this diet a month ago tomorrow, and have lost 17 pounds so far. Some days it feels like a lot, others not so much. I am doing this diet on my own because someone at work had lost so much weight on it and told me how to do it cheap using only alternatives. So every time I would Google something about the diet I kept coming back to this site. It is so great to have all of this info available. I look forward to getting to know all of you!
