HELP!!!
I'm back .....
havent posted a new thread since August 12th I think. At any rate, I need some advice. ASAP.
On august 1st, I began low carbing according to atkins and the induction period. After 2 weeks, I had lost about 9 lbs, sad thing is in that 2 weeks i wasnt working out, which makes the weight drop even more awesome.
I then left for college. My second year at the university of iowa, living in a sorority house. Little did i know, how much food would be at a my service day in and day out. While girls would make their toast, cereal or yogurt for breakfast, I found myself not eating because i couldnt have my eggs and bacon. And there is where is the problem began. I wasnt eating because i was in great fear of the carbs in the meals I knew i couldnt count.
I knew i couldnt stick to the plan carb for carb. But I thought I could stay within reason. Now, I have gained all plus some back, and I hate it. Especially when my weight seems to sit on my face, noticibly in my cheeks, not to mention thighs, hips and my butt. I know the answer is obvious, dont eat carbs, but does anyone have ANY realistic tip, that a college girl could LIVE by for the year? Besides working out .... I dont even drink all that much .... my wieght lies in the foods i eat. Does anyone know of a low carb diet that isnt as restricted? did it work?
I just need help - badly.
the college girl, kristin
