Hi everyone,
I'm a 27 year old german girl (mh going for the 30, so maybe not really a girl anymore) living in the Netherlands.
I've been reading this forum for the last 3-4 days and after having done what you could call "atkins-light" last year, I now decided to go for the real thing.
I've done a low carb, low fat, high protein diet last year and lost 8 kg (hope you don't mind me using the metric system
) in 6 weeks.
Started with a weight of 95 and ended up with 87, so that was nice.
Then I went on holidays to Greece and surpisingly enough maintained that weight even though I haven't been eating very little but real greek food is more meat and cheese and veggies than pizza, pasta and fries.
Unfortunately some time around October/November I started to rediscover my love for sweets (especially Maltesers, if you know them) and chips and pizza and pasta and gosh I LOVE potatoes and bread.
Well anyway until March 2007 I had gained the 8 kg again and had to start this whole thing all over.
I've done my "atkins-light" diet kinda on and off since April and did get rid of the 8kg I had gained again +1
And now I haven't lost a gram for the past 2 weeks and I know it doesn't always go that fast and since I've gone to the gym twice a week for the past 2 months I might have gained a gram or 2 of muscle but...bah my way just didn't feel right anymore.
So I came here and read and read and realized I hadn't really controlled my carbs, I didn't eat a lot of them but I couldn't have told you how many I had on any given day.
I read about fitday here and registered and entered my food on the 3rd of July.
I started induction yesterday and so far stayed clean lol....nah I don't really think it'll be a big problem...I just have to ignore the cookies my colleagues eat at work, the pizza my boyfriend eats every day and the thoughts of having a Whopper at BurgerKing (aaaaaaah!!!!).
My current weight is 85.5kg and I want to make that a 75kg until the end of August (going to Greece again).
I've bought what I call the Goal-bikini and I want to wear that thing in Greece....and look good in it!!!!!
I don't have a clue if that goal is unrealistic but you can't blame a girl for trying
Now that's enough for me and my novel, just wanted to say hi and that some results I've read about and seen here are really inspiring
