In my late teens, I struggled with binge eating and eating a lot of wheat (which I was allergic to) and a lot of dairy, which made me feel like crap. It also made me an insomniac- I never slept, or at least never slept enough.
In Nov. 2008, I was about 155lb and 5'8". I wasn't at all 'overweight' but I was heavier, and felt like crap. I broke out a lot. I never slept. I got sick often, and they were usually sicknesses that were hard to beat (ie. bronchitis). I also worked out a lot, but never really saw results like I wanted. This was from Nov. 2008, when I was around 155 lb. (and I'm baking here.. makes me sad ha)
Fast forward until I met my (now) husband. He got me hooked on the low-carb lifestyle. I felt better, and ate more food. I also lost weight, and leaned up in the right places. I no longer desire late night binges since I'm fully satisfied during the day (and go to bed before 10pm every night). These were taken in July 2011. I'm now around 136lb.
