Okay I'm back..first my boring bio:'

I turned 41 years YOUNG today..that's right. It is my birthday, which more or less turns out to be just like any other day. I'm a mom to two boys....Okay, that's about as personal as I"m gonna get on here......As far as my weight loss journey goes I was always a skinny kid and adolescent (although I always had hips and boobs as a teen and was not a "waif"). I never ate healthy, although my mom always bought fruit and vegetables for us there was always a steady supply of chips, ring dings, twinkies, etc. Since I didn't have a weight problem it wasn't an issue. I had a difficult childhood and adolescence which came to a head in college..that is when I started binging to feel better. My weight would go up and down after that. Looking back now I definitely had bulimic tendencies but since I didn't purge I never thought I had a problem. With each of my pregnancies I gained weight, way too much for my small frame.....again, my weight has gone down and up over the years, I really want to get healthy and get to a good weight and STAY THERE. The roller coaster ride is getting old. I want to have a healthy relationship with food and not turn to it because of emotions, then starve myself out of guilt......

That being said my goals for this challenge:

Eat low carbs...not Atkins but just eat less carbs like bread and more healthy proteins.
Get to a nice even 130 lbs...gain muscle at the same time.

That is my story and those are my goals.....
