60 inches....that is what my waist measured at this morning. I'm 5 feet around and I am only 5'3" tall. I am also 46, a grandmother and single (hence the nickname).
I'm not new to lowcarb. I've done Atkins in the past and I was successful at it. I lost 50 pounds but after resuming my old eating habits for a few years, I have regained it all back plus more.
I've restarted induction today. I'm tired of being bloated and having to struggle onto my feet, just to get out of bed, to go to the bathroom and being barely able to walk now. It is no way to live. I don't even know what I weigh anymore because I cannot find a scale that goes over 350 pounds and I think I am closer to 450 (or possibly even more then that).
I want to lose this weight to be able to play with my grandson and not have the weight hinder me as it does now. I am also moving to a new city in a couple of years and I want to be much smaller when I do move because it is a lovely city to be walking around in (Stratford, Ontario) and I want to be able to do that easily and comfortably. Eventually I would like to date and find my Mr. Right but I don't want to do it at this weight. I'm very uncomfortable being this size and my self esteem reflects that.
Thanks for listening. I am going to read the Second Time Around forum now.
I'm glad to be here.
