Hi everyone --- I just wanted to say that for the past 2 weeks or so I've been low carbing one day, carbing out the next day, etc. you may know that cycle. Anyway, I've been avoiding coming here and checking the boards and stuff -- maybe I just couldn't face it. Decided to come on here today to breeze through and boy -- I got a fresh dose of reinspiration!! I think I'm going to check in every day because this board sure is a big support for me and I didn't realize it!!! Well, it's 11:45 and I've low carbed since this morning -- hope to continue this trend! Thanks for all the support here.

Gmmd, you may consider starting a journal. To do so, go to My Low Carb Journal/ Low Carb Bootcamp and find the section Journals E to G. Start a new thread and you'll be all set.

With a journal, you can track your progress and people will stop in for support and encouragement. Also nice to see things you did (wrong or right) that may have affected your cravings, weight, eating choices, etc.

Stopping in other people's journals are also a good place for encouragement. Good luck, we're all behind you!

gmmd...

YES!! Keep checking in every day...I can tell you that these boards have been the lifeline for me, 100%. Not just the information and inspiration, but you will get to know people here and there that will become personal buddies and friends for you...

Today...get committed! If you're on an up and down cycle...clean that junk out of your house (or out of your way!) and stock up on some yummy stuff you can snack on and have for meals...

salami and cheese, lunch meats, chicken breast, shredded cheese on your salads, bacon bits, sour cream, real dressing...you know those Weight Watcher products need to go! This is about REAL food and a REAL goal and a REAL way to get there.

It's EASY...and enjoyable. I'm a carb addict from the cradle (also from Philly, lived in Williamstown, NJ for a while!) and trust me, if I can do this and really love it...and NOT miss those Italian Cream Cakes....You can do this.

It's a life changer...my stats: 260/265/150.
Hang in here with us...

Ooops...

meant to say 260/now 165/goal is 150...

Life changing!!
