You're exactly right! I've encouraged others to start LC'ing and they are doing great. I also coach others at work. We have a whole support group type of thing.

There are others things that I like about LC other than just the health benefits. I find that meals are actually quicker to prepare in most cases, the grocery bill has dropped (we cut out the junk food and the breads, etc.) and we just keep watching the sales papers. I love being able to eat at any place I want.

I think one of the best things for me was having to go out the past weekend and buy lots of new clothes!
