Hi to all,
I have been lurking for a little while. My name is Veronica and I live in San Antonio. I recently went on the South Beach diet for, oh... 5 hours. By lunch I decided if this what I had to look forward to with just a little bit of carbs in phase one and two, then I would rather just lie down and die.
Now San Antonio is known for being one of the fattest cities in the US. We are just the lucky ones, are we not? So, despite the great Mexican food, I am attempting to shed 25 lbs. or so to get back to 110 lbs., which I use to despair over and wished to be 100 lbs. And I sheepishly reveal, back then I thought 95 lbs. was perfect. I am only 5 ft. and to be fair, 95 lbs. when I was 18, was perfectly within my weight range. I am now approaching 40 and 110 lbs. is looking absolutly, wonderfully thin.
However, as you can see, this has been a life long obsession. Before it was for vanity, now it is about being winded when I run after my 4 year old. Here is to losing about 1 lb. a week (I hope) and trying to get that sugar monkey off my back. Heck, I'll take 2 lbs. a month and just keeping the monkey on a short leash.

Sugar monkey...... Sugar glider?
Remember, once the Sugar Monkey is on the leash it's much easier to take to the vet. Where you can have it put to sleep.
Welcome fellow Texan! Good luck!
