Hello from BC :)
Hi everyone!
My name is Xena and I live in BC Canada with my wife and many furkids. This is my second time giving Atkins a go, so hopefully I can reach my goal and stick it this time around.
I don't post weights as I do suffer from several eating disorders and focusing on numbers drives me crazy, but I can tell you that at my absolute heaviest I was 258 lbs. I am nowhere near that now, having only twenty or so lbs to go to my goal.
As you can guess by my forum name, dance plays a huge part in my life (always has, since the age of three). I was a professional dancer in my twenties, then because of various reasons I had to quit and the pounds came flying on (to the tune of the above number in less than two years).
It took me alot of years to lose that weight, and the first time I was on Atkins I managed to get to my goal only to begin to think I knew better than the diet outlines and just lost control again, gaining fifty lbs back. I have now lost about thirty of those, and am trying to knock off the last twenty or so...again.
I think the reason I have been having the hardest time of late is that I feel so isolated with no support and on other weight loss forums they don't consider twenty lbs to be much of anything, so they ignore me...making me eat more and you guessed it...gain.
So I'm looking for buddies and friendship and comeradery and support. If you be my cheerleader I'll be yours! Guaranteed.
Chat with you later and nice meeting all of you,
Xena
