Thank you so much for your story Lori! I am very much inspired. The last few days I have been waffling between wanting a low fat diet instead or sticking with this. I still haven't decided but I just want to say that your story gives me a sense of determination anyhow

Hi Lori,

I am grateful for your story - thank you for taking the time to write it down and share it. It is also so lovely to hear that you still have your father around! Yippee!! That really moved me.

Continue to enjoy your family, energy and health. You look like a million dollars!

Stacy

Wow. What a story.

I know that I have some of the same fears as you did. Also, even though I am now doing LC, I saw my reflection in a glass door today and I literally had to look away. I could not stand the sight of myself.

My fears are that I "might" fail, and I still find it hard to belive --- in fact I really do not believe in my head --- that all my medical numbers will fall in line on this WOE if I keep to it.

Thanks for sharing!

Good for you, that is a great success story ! I too have been successful with LC but have creeped on 10 lbs in the last year. I am looking to these boards for motivation again. I still eat LC 99% of the time, but my one big downfall is social drinking (beer) and eating too late at night.

Thanks for the inspiration !
