Need a Buddy Please!

Jonee · 09-24-2007, 08:26 AM

I am new to this site but not new to low carbing. I am very serious about getting the next phase of my weight off. I was up to a size 24 in 1999 and Jan 2000 went on the atkins 72 plan(original) and in 6 months was down to a size 18/20. I have maintained that size, no clue of my weight because I refuse to get on a scale

but now I have been low carbing for 1 week with my teenage son and I am ready to get down to a size 14.

I have a myspace, yahoo 360.

Hobbies: crafting, making homemade bath and body products including REAL soap, not syndet.

sheesh no one wants to be my buddy LOL ohhh the rejection!!

heidiheidi · 09-27-2007, 11:32 AM

me! me! I'll be your buddy...

I have done Dr. supervised low carb in the past- the shakes, ugh

this time I am doing low carb on my own, and walking each day. I feel ready to make changes in my life.

I am a mama to two.
I like to craft, knit, sew, DIY
I live in Portland oregon with my husband, a poodle, a wild two year old girl and a thoughtful 8 year old boy.

I work part time as a preschool admin.

woohoo are we allowed to put our email address's or myspace links in posts? I thought I read someone's post that we have to do it thru private messages?

Well I am 2 weeks strong and starting my 3rd week on low carb WOL(way of life) and the longer I do it the better I am feeling.

Let's do this!

Hi Everyone,

It such a unique feeling to meet strangers that are sharing a common battle. Great job to everyone for trying to make their outsides match what they feel inside.

A little about me. I've never been skinny and have always had a chubby face so even when I wasn't really heavy I looked like it. I was a nice size 8/10 in high school and still thought I was "fat" because I had always been chubby and everyone treated me that way! What I wouldn't do to be that size now!!! Anyway...started dating and getting fat right out of high school. Too many nice dinners. In 2003 I was 198 lbs and afraid to death at getting to 200 so I started a modified low carb diet (I don't count carbs in fruits and veggies except bananas) and lost 30 lbs. in about 4 months. Stopped the LC life after my cruise and here I am at 205. I have to get this off. In my mind I am sexy but in the mirror there is just unneccessary fat everywhere.

I have been married five years and have a beautiful 5 month old daughter. I want to set good examples for her about eating healthy and having SELF CONTROL.

I would love some nice buddies. This website is what inspired me the first time. Looking for some more inspiration to get to my goal weight of 140 and hopefully 130.

Nice to meet you all!!!

Hey everbody!
I am a 23 yr old female who is looking for a few low carb buddies to keep me motivated! I am fairly new to low carb and Im still figuring a few things out. At the moment I weigh 175 and I am desperately wanting to lose 20 lbs and get down to 155 where I am most comfortable. This summer I basically pigged out and partied a little too much- and now I am very sorry for it!

Anyway hope you ladies dont mind if I join your little group- I need as much support as I can get! Thanks!
