that I found this forum! I have been doing low carb since Jan 04, and got off it for awhile when I added too many carbs and became discouraged. After spring break I decided to try the Curves diet (more fruits and dairy) but GAINED 2 lbs. after a week, so here I am back at Atkins. If you are reading this right now then I can only assume that you have struggled with your weight for some period of time too, and have gone through the same struggles and humiliation that often go along with being overweight. I am here to support anyone that I can, and I hope that you feel you can do the same for me. I look forward to meeting many more dedicated, strong-willed, and fabulous people here! As a college student, it's hard to eat low-carb with all the outside pressures, not to mention the $$!! I'll continue to persevere though...you do the same!! God bless!

Hi Kat!

This is the one place where you are definitely not alone! I am still trying to work up the courage to post some before photos. I have to have them taken first! I avoid the camera like Diana was avoiding mirrors.
