Hi all,

I'm very new around these parts, but already I can see why the weight has piled on - I suck at this! My food count is *always* over. Looking for young (I'm 23) people that are also having a hard time fitting this new dieting deal around their social life and terrible eating habits. Maybe it'll be easier if we're all in it together?

Amy.

    Hi Amy!

    What are some of the times and foods you are struggling with most? Maybe I can help offer some good alternatives :)

    Hi. I'm 26 and have been at this weight loss thing since March 1. Thankfully, I'm down 30lbs but it wasn't easy. I had such an awful relationship with food. I mean, I would sit and eat an entire row of Oreos or a whole box of fruit roll ups. It was gross. I hit my heaviest of 220lbs and decided that it was time to do something or continue getting bigger and unhealthy. I started Atkins and it has basically changed my life. I no longer sit and eat whole boxes of anything. Its a rough road, but well worth it in the end. I've still got about 50lbs to go until I reach my goal but I'm happy to have made it this far. Good luck on your weight loss journey!
