  • First time here.

    Hello, How is everybody? This is my Second time attempting the low carb diet. I am fully confident that this will be the last. I have lived with a weight problem my entire life. And it is time for change. I am really glad I ran across this forum because I think that it will help to have others that have the same vision as I do. I started this lifestyle change at the first of the year and since then I have lost approx. 16lbs. Thank you for allowing me to be part of this internet family. I will be checking in quite regularly. God Bless!

    16 pounds is really good. I am on day 4. How long did it take for you to start losing?

        I lost the first week, probably 4 lbs. But then my second week I lost 7 1/2.
