Hi everyone!

My name is Thepastrygirl. Just like my name I am working in pastry shop making all the good eat, after so many years those good eat no longer my tempatation no more.

I have been back and forward lose weight and gained weight. I really tired of it. The reason why I want to lose weight because I want to change my lifestyle and be healthy and sexy again. I gained 25 lbs because of taking steroid for my injured arm, elbow and wrist, my pain is back after one year but I am not taking any of those, it messed up my period( I used to have 28 days, and it made me come every 42 days)

I woke up one morning, I look into the mirror look how fat and ugly I was. Then I start skip all the junk food and start work out again. So far I lost 12 pounds since last Christmas 2011.

I felt so alone all the time in the states, I may need some support and friends if anyone can spare me some time.

    Feel free to add me to your friend list I know how you are feeling. I'm on vacation and have gained 5 lbs. I have a treadmill and elliptical and I'm too lazy to go get on them. I'm going to go do something on them today because I overdid it yesterday. I knew being on vacation was going to be too much for me. If only I was more disciplined. I'm hear if you need a friend to talk with.

    im new too (well this is the first time of doing it properly, i "played around" on MFP last year but didnt last cos my heart wasnt in it - it is now)

    please feel free to add me, i struggle to keep going, and (some) people around me arent great at helping as they dont understand my desire to lose weight.
