Hi everyone! I'm so glad I found this site - it looks like I will find a lot of good info here. I'm considering trying a low-carb diet, although I tried one other time and found it quite difficult for me. I'm sure that I'll have lots of questions, so hopefully I'll get the help I need right here. A little about myself... I'm 5'9" tall, 35 years old, currently weigh around 155 and want to be 140 - that's low enough for my frame. I've lost weight counting calories in the past, and kept it off for quite awhile... but then went on a 5-6 month binge after the death of a close relative several years ago. Since then, I 've been on a rollercoaster, losing & gaining about 10 lbs. Now I'm considering something new, so I'm here to learn.

Nice to meet all of you! Good luck, everyone!
