    Hi I am new...

    Hi! I am new here! I quit smoking a year ago and have gained a lot of weight! All my fault I gave myself permission to eat whatever I wanted while I tackled my addiction to cigarettes! A year later...now I am ready to start to lose it! I have always been over weight anyway...so it's not all due to quitting smoking! I have been on diets my whole life. Thus, I have been a size 0 and the biggest I have ever have been is right now- a size 28/ 30! I have a lot to lose but I am a patient person. If it takes me a year or more...so be it! I haven't been on a scale for over a year so I don't know what I weigh. I do not like to weigh myself often because I suffer from eating disorders. And the # on the scale freaks me out. Thanks for having me. I have to get the book and read it...then I will start. I have always loved meat and veggies versus sugar and carbs..with the exception of after I quit smoking. I am over the constant want for sugar now. This appears to be the lifestyle for me. Thanks!

      Thanks!! I know that the quit smoking forum helped me out a lot! I'm sure this will help too! Thanks for welcoming me! I think I will get the book and read it first...then start Monday! Quitting smoking was very hard yes! This will be a different type of thing since I can't give up eating entirely!

        I quit smoking almost three years ago. and i said the same thing to myself. deal with the addiction than deal with the weight. i am here too so.....

        you can do it. get the knowledge than put it into action. try new vegetables, new flavours and recipes. i use a lot o lindas low carb recipes to keep variety in my daily plate.

        i am new myself and i have received alot of motivation from the beore and after photos as well.

        take care and you can do it.!

          Hi! Thanks for the welcome! I just got back from walmart and found that they don't have the atkin's book! I was so disappointed! That's what I went for and to buy foods that are in the diet...but no go! I ended up spending $80.00 anyway! LOL! Anyway! Thanks...I will try to find a book before Monday...so I can start then!
          byes for now!
