Boy, Mcadewowner, you are doing great! I think everyone would like to hug you, including Oprah! All of you on this thread are doing great - I think Oprah is a weight loss junkie so if a bunch of us had great success and wanted to tell our stories, she might be game.

This week's People featured people who had lost a lot of weight with all kinds of methods (except surgery). (At least one was a low carber).

Personally, I did lose 40 pounds with eating low fat, but I switched to low carb to lose the last stubborn 60 pounds. I'm in a lot better mood on low carb than I ever was on low fat! We could certainly be experts on the pros and cons - I like the idea of challenging Dr. Phil!

Keep up the great work!
