Hey Guys, I'm Cat

Options
Hey there!

So My name is Cat, I'm a 24 year old Emergency Veterinary Technician originally from New York but I moved to South Carolina Last year. I have been a yo-yo basically my whole life and I'm tired of the cycle. I work really hard get really thin feel great then I eat and watch the number creep up then I get depressed until I find motivation once again and the cycle repeats. Since I moved to South Carolina I've gained almost 40lbs. That's a crazy amount of weight in that period of time not to mention I'm only 4'9. I maintained a healthy weight for 2 years but after moving and knowing no one here except my partner who is a skinny mini that eats what ever she wants and never moves more than necessary, I needless to say fell of the wagon. I'm tired of doing this to myself. I need to learn how to change permanently and to hold my own even without the support from friends and family that I'm use to. I work 60 - 70 hour weeks and my sleep pattern is never consistent. I'm hoping that getting involved on here will help me find answers and support. So Hi My name is Cat and I'm ready for a life style change!

-Cat

    Awe we're kidding. Seriously, don't take it personal.. we're all bunch of crazies here.

    Come to think of it .. you do have "sheart" in your name.

    No one is making fun of you hon. It just so happens that your name is very relevant to something that happened on here yesterday. And it's a cool name BTW.
    Please don't ragequit.

    Yeah, we are an eclectic mix of perverts and jerks (and many of us fall into both categories). You will learn to love us. Or hate us. Either way, have fun here!

    Hey Cat!:). Welcome. You have come to the right place.

    (Yesterday every thread had the word cat in it because it was April 1st and because many of us like cat pictures)

    My brain read the title as I'm "A" Cat and I got all excited b/c I joke about being my cat on here (hence my cat's pic for my Avi).

    Welcome, Cat!
