Hi! Thanks for stopping by and wanting to know a little bit about me.
I started Atkins June 28, 2010. I admittedly have some difficulty remaining committed to my cause of being healthier and thinner. At one point on Atkins I had lost 38lbs! And that was fantastic!!! However, I found it hard to limit myself and soon I was finding every reason to binge on something like pizza or potato chips.

So I have gone back to old faithful! With the new Points Plus Program I am hoping I do better on Weight Watchers!!

This site has been a God send!! The people on here are an endless source of support. I recommend it to all my friends who are looking to reclaim their lives.

Always remember that the kind word of support you lend to someone on this site will come back to you times three! People here want nothing more than to see you succeed!!!

Okay so for people who are looking for non-weight loss me information, I live in New Jersey and have for the majority of my life. I work full time for a company that provides therapeutic foster homes for troubled children and teens as well as developmentally disabled adults. I have a bachelors degree in Psychology and I am working towards getting a Master's Degree in Marriage Couple & Family Counseling. I am very very very close to my family and see them weekly, and by family I don't just mean my parents and siblings, I mean my cousins, aunts, and my cousins kids too!! I have been involved with the most amazing guy for 2 years now! He has been another source of support for me and is always there for me no matter what. I am truly a lucky girl!!
