Hello fellow Nebraskan!

I, too, am the only LCer in my family. My husband is probably either waiting to see if it really works for me, or waiting for the Holidays to pass. Either way, I think he will eventually join in.

But, as for the Chocolate Chip cookies...I've been there. What books have you read? I am doing CAD because it allows me to eat cookies and cakes and pies (granted, not all once) during one meal a day.

I will watch the forums for you.
