OKOK, I went WAY off the wagon...for a year (gulp!) I had a very stressful job (that I was laid off of in April, Thank God, Praise Allah and Blessed Be!) and I ate and drank myself up to a new high...not a good high either! Topped out at 209. I have never been over 200 (or close to 200) in all of my years. NEVER. Heck, ten years ago I was never over 130, but than came babies...humph!

So, I joined Curves for Women in March, started getting my tail into shape, and have been weaning myself off the carbs.

Today is my first day of true induction, and I am looking forward to being a frequent visitor again tho this wonderful support group! It is good to be back!

Now I have to start that darn FitDay all over again!

Well, welcome back after your hiatus! Isn't coming to this wonderful forum addictive? Happy LCing!!!

Welcome back! I'm sure you'll be glad you are! I too had a stressful job about 2 years ago, and I got laid off and it was the best thing that could have happened to me! It took me over a year just to get over having worked there .....AWFUL management, AWFUL work environment, very high stress.

Anyway, I gained alot of my weight because that and other stresses in my life, but LC time is NOW, right??

I too am a member of Curves and I love it!

Atkins + Curves = pounds/ inches lost

This is a great place to come for support, stick around!!
