  • Two people in one day!

    Today I went to school and when I walked into math class a friend of mine, Caroline, who was already there told me "Therese, you have gotten so thin." And I said "thank you!" and smiled like crazy. She didn't look as happy though, but she had that worried look on her face. But hey! It's all good!

    The next person was Susanna, who told me during recess that I looked skinny and she had been thinking about it all day.

    I AM HAPPY! I haven't heard things like these in ages!!

    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

      woo hoo for you. SOme times they think you are getting thin because you are ill so if you reassure them it is because you are working your butt off with your healthy food choices and execise they will be relieved you don't have cancer. Yep folk actually think that when we get skinny.

      Happy low carbing.

          You are right 2big.
          I was talking to one of our neighbours yesterday and he said that his neighbour was asking him if 'the lady at the stained glass shop' was ill as I was losing so much weight!!
          I don't even know the lady but she obviously has been noticing my loss.

            People ask me if I have an eating disorder and such, and yes, I have gotten "are you ill?" and had people BEG me to call a doctor and check what's wrong.

            Um, I'm becoming healthy? :icondance
