Weightloss Buddy

mommysunshine · 04-17-2008, 08:52 PM

Hey all, I'm 25 year old woman just wanting to find someone interested in keeping tabs on each other. Here's the deal. I weigh 279lbs at 5'6" My sister and I just started South Beach Diet and we've both lost 4 lbs in 3 days. I'd like someone outside my family to talk to and keep me accountable.

I really need to lose the weight because I don't want to be unhealthy. I don't want heart disease or to die of heart attack before I'm 40 or get diabetes. I want to be able to walk up the stairs without my knees protesting and walk around the house without my backside knocking things over.

So..that's me in a nutshell.

A little more about me. I have an 8month old daughter (so..50 lbs is from the pregnancy that I still haven't gotten rid of) She's the love of my life and my joy and inspiration. I just graduated from college on March 29th and I'm currently looking for a job. I have a lot of stress in my life and that tends to make me eat more because I'm an emotional eater. I've been doing pretty good though and I'm determined to get under 200lbs! that is my first goal..I'd like to lose more after that but my first goal is 200!so I have 79 lbs to reach this first goal!

Welcome, mommysunshine!

I can certainly identify with you wanting to be healthier, to avoid helth problems later on. I wish I had found low carb sooner, before I was diagnosed with diabetes. With my low carb WOE and the weight loss, though, I have gotten myself off of diabetes medications and stayed off them for nearly a year now. So there is yet more proof that low carb works!

I am 42, married, no kids but absolutely love them! I have a spoiled weiner dog named Sammi and work as a nurse with patients with alzheimers disease.

How exciting that you just graduated from college! What field did you study?
