Whats up everyone i dont really know if i am actually doing this right. Its been interesting navigating this great site. It feels great to be on a LC diet. I do not feel any different without my carbs and i am not hungry or anything so i am starting to wonder if i am doing this right. Anyways im glad that i joined and i look forward to communicating and hearing from everyone.

Hello!

>>"It feels great to be on a LC diet. I do not feel any different without my carbs..."

Wow, you're lucky! I think, though, that the people who feel the worst when they switch to LC are people who are 'hard-core' carb junkies - people who eat too much sugar, candy, chips... that stuff. Did you eat a reasonably healthy diet before switching?

"...so i am starting to wonder if i am doing this right."

I'd guess you're doing it right. You're not hungry because you're eating enough fat and you're keeping your blood sugar even throughout the day. *But* - if you're in doubt, perhaps you'd like to share exactly what your modification is...

Enjoy!

Thanks for the welcome,

Before my low carb diet i did eat reasonably healthy with the occasional actually daily "non" healthy snack such as a brownie which sounds so good right now. However i did eat this in moderation at least i tried too.

My reasons for going on LC is that my blood pressure is way too high for someone my age and the doc suggested losing some weight. So i decided to do something good for my health such as the LC. It seems perfect for me cause i just got a blood test done and it said that my cholestoral total was only 96 so i can gain some cholestoral safely. In fact he said i had to bring up my good one.

My modification is not stressing over this diet and eating what u enjoy with out carbs. I am not eating a lot of high fat food i am eating a lot of protein though. If anything i know i am eating the healthiest out of my family, and it feels great. I havent read the book completly, but i do understand the basic rules.

Alright i can write a lot more i always have a lot to say but i dont want to bore anyone.

Thanks for ur response take care for now and talk to u later
