Hi, Eve, I think you're referring to me. I entered my weight (original and goal) because I did have a few pounds to lose, and wanted to be honest about that. But my MAJOR reason for low carbing is my blood lipid problem. If I hadn't been prompted by the profile form to enter a weight (it says that the field is required), I might not have done so.

My weight, whether high or low or in between, is not the cause of my lipid problems, which are hereditary. I didn't mean to suggest that I was aiming for 110 pounds in order to lower my cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The weight goal is a totally separate--and in my case, relatively minor--thing. That I've lost a few pounds on this WOE is good, because I was a few pounds overweight. But that I've been able to dramatically lower my LDL and triglyceride readings and dramatically raise my HDL while low carbing is sensational, and keeping them at this improved level is my reason for staying on this WOE.
