In desperate need of a penpal

jennab · 01-05-2003, 02:19 PM

Hello all...I'm a 22 yr old female athlete who is doing this low-carb thing for the first time. I'm on day four and it is killing me, mostly because I'm extremely sick. Yesterday I came down with a head cold and sore throat. I haven't cheated, not even any orange juice, but am getting frustrated easily. I'm only looking to lose like 10-15 lbs max. I totally need support because I'm getting tired of eating just meat and salad very quickly...please help!!

Hi there! I hope by the time you read this you are well on your way to feeling better.

I'm 28 and also in NYC. I also am hoping to lose 8-10 pounds.

Though I'm hardly an athlete, I do love to run (slowly!!) and I'm hoping to start accumulating some miles toward training for a marathon.

I'd love to have a penpal or even someone to workout with locally.

Anyway, I hope you are hanging in there! When you feel better, check out the recipe room for some ideas to ease your boredom with meat and salads. There is a world of yum stuff out there!

Best,
Sofeline
