Mostly always fat
I was normal weight when I was born, but spent all of my childhood "bigger" than the other kids. I was fat until I was about 14, and discovered boys. Then, my creative mother, helped "motivate" me to lose weight.
I had to maintain or lose weight in order to get the car, and in some instances, even go out. So, I kept the weight off until after I graduated.
Since I was married, I decided eating was more important that almost anything else. Worst part of it, it was like being driven.
When I husband met me, I was a size 10-12, /currently 22-1/2, I have lost 30 pounds, but got lots more to go.
I gave up nutrasweet stuff a week ago (aspartame products), and went back on Atkins today with a new mission and determination.
I lost 30lbs. since last May, but spent more time cheating than losing.
It has been a real struggle..........and I believe I understand the cravings that an alcoholic gets. Thats the way carbs are for me..........
