The Girl Who Wants Her Life Back

[TAphotographyTA]

Hey everyone,

I'm Tara, age 21.

I've tried many diet lists in the past years... Some times I gave up and thought "being happy with myself no mather how I looked" was ok. But well, yeah, it wasn't a good idea at all...

I wasn't this fat before 2006, but after a car accident I survived from, for some reason "I stopped living". I gained about 45 kilos just for sitting at home all time.

I've been thinking, what I could do to get rid of all this kilos and get my life back to normal as it used to be. Then I found this forum and saw all these "before and after" pictures, read all of the stories... They were such an inspiration to me.

If everyone can do it, I can do it too!

Hope to share my own before & after pics too...


Nice meeting y'all!

Re: The Girl Who Wants Her Life Back

Don't wait another day to take your life back. I am now out of the wheelchair, off the walker, off the quad-canes and off most of the drugs that kept me bed-bound for so many years. I decided that if I didn't have something that would kill me and I had to be on this earth for another 30 years, I was going to enjoy my life and I have! You will find so much support on this forum. You CAN do it. Several of us that have medical problems have found a way to exercise, even when doctors told us we couldn't. You can do anything if you want it bad enough!

Sunny!

Don't look back at all the failures from the past, instead give yourself lots of good motiational knowledge for succeeding. The board is fantastic for getting support and making friends who will help keep you focused. As Sunny said, many of us have had medical issues. You can do it ~ stay positive, make friends, and read the book, Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution, edition 2002.

Re: The Girl Who Wants Her Life Back

Thank you all for replying and giving me more courage in my "new life try-out"

I'm in my 3rd day of induction and I already lost 3 kilos WOHOOOO! But this sometimes makes me think that the scale isn't showing my exact weight. Is this normal? I mean to lose 3 kg's in 3 days? (3 kg's are about 6.6 lbs)
