No one loves me




My name is Kim and I am a 22 y/o SAHM down here in Louisiana (no, I am not Chocolate ). I am originally from NY and I moved here in 2004 after I married my Southern Boy. My little princess, Briley Makenna is almost 15 months... she and I love shopping and eating out.. hehehe. I started out at my highest, 227/Size 18. For the past several years I had been maintaining at 190.. then I became pregnant with my daughter and went up to 220. I was very sick early in 2005 and I went down to 200. Then, somehow between then and now, I gained almost 30 lbs. My husband and I started our new way of eating almost 2 weeks ago this Sunday (well, basically it's my new way of eating that I 'put' him on, lol.. since I am the one who does all of the shopping and cooking!). You can see my results in my signature. This week has been a bit tougher so I hope that I have been maintaining that loss! My weaknesses are PASTA (100% Italian!), bread.. and oh, did I mention PASTA? I also go weak at the knees for cheesecake, cookies, chocolate, brownies... Mhmmm. ANYWAYYYY.. I need a buddy that I can IM with often!

hey Kim just start typing sounds like you got a good start ......and please dont talk about chocolate...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....chocolate I love the stuff I dont let myself have any I cant stop at one...lol

I'm with you sister!! Pasta...oh how I love thee! LOL! Actually last night I made spaghetti but I used ground turkey instead of ground beef and my family just loved it, I also used the Barilla plus, which is supposed to be better than the plain white, I cant do the wholewheat pasta...its too...prikly. Looks to me like you are doing awesome so far!! keep up the good work! What IM do you use? I'd love to chat!

Hi Kim,

I'm a New Orleans' native --gasp, I still admit it! Maybe that's why I'm sooooo addicted to chocolate????!??!? The Mayor did call it a chocolate city??!?!?!

Kim! I, too, have a huge weakness for pasta, and sweets!!! But, like your signature says "Thin feels better than cookies taste." So I try not to eat a lot of them! I like that saying!! Well, if you ever need to talk or need some encouragement, just PM me. I've been on here for a little while and I do not have a buddy either.
