Hey I willbethin! I've seen you around before and I just wanted to tell you that I am really impressed that you've been away and have maintained your loss even @ 50 carbs/day. Glad to have you back!
First off, I'd like to say you are certainly a pretty lady! Ok, as far as weight loss, I think you've done a great job and the pictures show. You definately will be thin!
Work-in-progress:
Height: 5'10
Age: 24 (Damn, the years are creeping up!)
Sex: Male (Hetero as can be!)
SW: 370+ (August, 2005)
CW: 241(June 24, 2006)
GW: 220 (maybe 210, who knows? As long as I can see abs, I'm good.)
Education: BS (Information Systems w/software engineering concentration) MS (Information Assurance and Security 6 hours left) Ph.D (next goal in Information Technology Management. ~3-4 years)
Wow, IWillBeThin, you are GLOWING in your new pics!!
Am so proud of you for giving up the smoking AND losing weight at the same time - that is surely very rare!! I gave up a 20-a-day habit 3 1/2 years ago and have not even had one puff since: it's the thing I am most proud of. I think what helped is realising that I have an addictive personality, so I joined the gym and tried to 'cross-addict' myself to that. After 3 months it gets a **** of a lot easier, then one day you'll realise you're not even counting the days any more!
I even have dreams where I start smoking and wake up in a blind panic thinking 'Noooooooo!!!!!! After all that hard work!!!'
Instead am a really zealous anti-smoker now (aren't all reformed smokers??)
Good luck with your maintenance - it's well earned. Keep that pic about you everyday - you should be so proud!
