Sooo...hello fatsecret. My name is Heide - I'm a 22 year old student/call center employee in Kansas City. I decided to join fatsecret because I'll be honest: I really can't do the whole diet thing alone. I've always been a "big" girl, but I've let myself get too big. I'm 5'11, and currently weigh 215, which is 10 lbs. less than my all time high weight of 225. I weighed 225 a couple years ago and did the Abs diet with success and got myself down to 185 (still "overweight" for my height according to BMI). I kept it off until I started working for Einstein Bros. Bagels in 07. One free meal and all the free bagels that you want from Einstein Bros. will kill any hopes of dieting. I decided I had to do SOMETHING when my three favorite pairs of shorts all committed suicide in the course of two weeks.
I decided to go with the South Beach diet for the cardiovascular benefits. Went out and bought all the stuff for my first week today. I think that having a job with scheduled breaks is going to help (at Einstein Bros, I had one fifteen minute break no matter how long my shift was and I tended to overeat because it was my only opportunity to eat in a 8-12 hour period). So...yeah! First day of my diet is tomorrow, so wish my fat ass luck! =D
