Hi and welcome Lynette!

I too have a slender husband who has embraced the LC life -- and he makes it look so easy! I just started last week to really take my carb addiction seriously, so I know how you feel.

I decided to be active on these boards because writing it down seems to make it real in a way that just thinking about it doesn't do. Do you think that would help you?

Good luck and please keep us posted on how you're doing!

PS I had a short trip to Australia 10 years ago and it was lovely -- when my son is a little older we plan to go back for a longer trip to really see the sights.
