Need a penpal! 22/f/OH

OHDaleJrFan8 · 12-26-2003, 11:40 PM

Hey everyone!

I made a decision this week that I was going to start Atkins again. I was on Atkins for about a week once but hit a huge bump and here I am. I don't really get exercise but I want to start. I have fibromyalgia so it is really hard for me to exercise. I decided that I want to do this for myself. I took Metabalife for a while and lost about 60 lbs. I gained it back plus 40 lbs. I just want to stick with this and get to my goal weight. I would like to be 150 by October.

I would like to find a pen pal for support. I want to be able to share stories and challenges with someone else that is in my situation that has a lot of weight to lose at my age. Being 22, I have a long life to live. I want to be thin and happy, not fat and depressed.

TIA,
Amanda

Hi Amanda,
If you haven't found anyone yet I would love to be your pen pal! I am 21 from Memphis, TN, and definitely ready to lose some weight. I tried Atkins a while back and did really well, but just fell off and gained it back... I am much more motivated now and would love to have another person to share success stories (hopefully!) and to have someone who understands what I am going through. I am at 180 right now - my highest weight in the last year or so - And my goal is also 150.

Hope to hear from you soon!

Lauren

Hi Lauren,

Sounds great to me. I know what you mean about falling off. The only thing is-I didnt even give it enough time to lose anything. I was on Induction for maybe 4 days and gave up. I need a friendly nudge now and then! My email addy is ohdalejrfan8@aol.com if you wanna email me!
