Hi Guys:

I just found this thread through Angela. Thanks Angela!

I have a strange history. I never started LCing to lose weight. I was already at my goal weight, although I have had to watch my weight ever since I turned 20, when I weighed 145 lbs. I started LCing b/c of hypoglycemia. I had a huge sugar addiction and ever since giving up sugar, I've had swings of bingeing that would cause me to gain 10 pounds in a short period of time. I've been yo-yoing up and down 10 pounds for the last year.

So my current goals (since the New Year) aren't as focused on losing weight so much as to control the sugar addiction that causes me to gain weight. If I control that, I control the weight. I've been averaging a loss of about 1/2 pound a week, if that. This is the slowest it's ever been for me. I think I actually lose weight quicker on a low-fat diet, but the ramifications are horrible. There are too many benefits to LC to ever go back to low fat.

So I'm officially checking in!
Measurements:

Chest - 34.5" (Hey, I could swear I wear a 36B?)
Waist - 27"
Hips - 34.25"
Thighs - 21.5" with lots of cellulite

Oh, I'm also very small-boned.

Wanda
