Hi! I'm ChemLass. I'm a college student. I was really ill a few years back and dropped to about 95 lbs. After I got better I gained A LOT of weight, then I started college and gained even more.

I'm trying to lose the weight now, and MFP showed me that I eat way too many carbs (70-80% of my diet!) so I'm also looking for some help to lower my carb intake.

I'm excited to get healthier and make new friends!

  • Have you looked at the Paleo diet? That might help. It is a big change from refined carbs but more healthy carbs you cannot go crazy on. So net effect, less carbs
