Sooo, hi.
From a 26 year old coder chick who weighs about 263 right now which is really cheesing me off.
So, ah, I'm terrible at this introduction thing but here I am. I tried atkins (briefly) once before and couldn't really stick with it (mostly for feeling hungry/miserable) but I did loose weight, and well, for some reason I've gone from hanging around 250 steady for a while (PCOS, aint it fun?), to being unable to stop gaining no matter what I do for the past several weeks.
So, we're back here. Hoping to stick with it this time, or at least use it as a launch pad to a much lower carb diet no matter what.
I'm kind of high stress and i'm freaking out pretty badly at the moment about finding the time to cook and managing to figure out menus and all that stuff. As this time, sticking to the letter except splenda sweetened soda. I can't deal with giving up a caffiene/diet soda addiction at the same time (yes i know, but I know myself, I'm not going to upheave my diet *and* my soda habit at the same time and do anything but be 100% unhappy and that's not going to last...)
Anyhow, well, hi.
Hoping to drop about 20 pounds in about 3.5 months (which I think is really reasonable) as a starter goal. More would be great! Eventually I'd like to weigh about 135-140.
