I haven't posted anything in a about 5 weeks, but I have been reading posts. I think that this LC stuff might be catching on as a way of life instead of just a way to lose weight. I hope so.

I have been following the Atkins plan for 101 days as of this morning. I feel better than I have felt in years (I am only 27).

As of this morning I have lost 54 pounds (from 281 all the way down to 227), and about 6 inches off by belt line.

The biggest difference I have experienced is that my knees, which are traditionally bad, feel better than they have felt in 4 or 5 years.

Thanks to all of you who have helped me saty motivated.

I too had health problems that have drastically changed for the good since I have been on this WOL. Major congratulations. I belong to this site for the encouragement it gives. I have only told a few people about my WOL because I live in a very much meat, potatoes & gravy town. They talk about how sick this diet is and unhealthy. So I keep it to myself and ones I can trust to not ridicule me.

Congratulations on your success. Your progress is wonderful. Despite the naysayers, the lc wol truly does work. Keep up the good work and take care.

Cheers,
Lara

Sometimes I think the side-effects of this WOE are better than the main reason we all gravitate toward it. Feeling great is so very important, afterall, what's the point of being slim and feeling weak and tired and hungry?

Keep up the great work!
