Welcome to this forum! I've only been low carbing for 3 weeks and have already lost 14 pounds and 12.05 inches! Aside from pouring over my copy of DANDR, I've learned so much just from reading this forum.

It's sounds like you're off to a great start as far as cleaning out your cupboards and getting rid of all the 'junk' food. I couldn't do that for two reasons....my five kids can still eat most of that stuff, plus I'm just not that organized! I've definitely stopped buying my kids some of the horrible foods they were eating before, but they're all skinny so I'm not going to change their diets too horribly. I've been gradually introducing new veggies to them and they seem to like most of them. We were all definitely veggie deprived before.

Once again, welcome! You'll find so much encouragement and support here!
