Hi I'm new and excited to be here! I have tried low carb before, but always failed because I didn't lose all my weight. This time I realize that ANY weight lost is good, and I don't have to feel like a failure and gain it back in defeat! I have a lot to lose, so I want to make 10% my first goal. Yes, I stole that from WW. I feel really happy with this new attitude I will not gain back weight because I will view any loss as success!
On another note, I've been lurking and you guys are awesome! You discuss differing points of view with mutual respect and I've learned so much. I have been disappointed with other boards (not on this site) where there is the "in" crowd who rule and everyone has to agree or get flamed, but I haven't seen that here! I guess I'm sensitive but I don't like to be treated like a disgusting peice of bacteria, I can get that from the general public.
Anyway, I have left a few posts but wanted to introduce myself. Hi all
