Okay... so I blew it last night. I ended up eating 3 muffins, and drinking milk, and eating mac and cheese. I am trying to get back on track, but with lack of groceries, I may have to tweak my diet a little until I have enough money to get Atkins friendly foods. I will be working out like crazy until I can get back on Atkins though. I will still report to you guys, as its easier when you have others to help you keep in check. I want to share a picture with you guys. Its not a great picture, because its on a canvas, and I had to take a picture of the picture, and the lighting sucked... but this is what I looked like in 2000, and I am trying to figure out why people always called me fat! Looking at that pic, compared to now, I was SKINNY!

I was hella skinny back then, so why the hell did I get tormented in high school for being fat? (I graduated in 2003)

You look great in those pics. How dare anyone have called you fat!!
People can be so cruel. You're a beautiful person inside and out. Keep up the great work and you'll get back there :)

Hi Leah, I was wondering, did you eat all of that because it's all you had to eat or because something happened and you ate emotionally? I am addicted to carbs like some people are addicted to meth. I HAD to have them. It wasn't until I started treating it as an addiction that I was able to get it under control. I am now an emotional eater. I don't keep bad carbs in my house but I eat too much of the good stuff everytime my BF leaves me for work. So NOW I have to work on that. I wish you the best of luck on getting these demons under control, I know it's hard.

Well, it wasn't ALL we had to eat, but it was in the house, and we are getting down to the bare minimum. I really ate it because I was having a bad day, had a bad headache, and my 2 year old was getting on my nerves. It was more of an emotional binge. I am addicted to food of all kinds.

You look great in all the pictures. It is unfortunate that our body image gets so skewed in HS. If I had been happy then with the weight I was, I might never have gotten as heavy as I did later on.

I agree - I look at all the pictures of me in my 20's and think, God, I thought I was fat!!! I wish I looked like that now. That's why I think Atkins is so good for you. It really makes you analyze your addictions to food, discover WHY you want to eat healthier, and helps you change your habits for a lifetime. And by doing those things, you can't help but change your self-image. After all, when you are making healthier choices consistently you feel better about yourself. You'll get through it Leah!!! Perhaps you should do some reading on self-image and emotional eating. It might help you identify your triggers.
