I can sympathize with all for those who were there at the beginning of my journey and now they are gone. Some with alot to lose some close to goal and some at goal. It will never be over for me even if this is and I hope the year I reach my goal. This a life long commitment to myself to eat healthier and take better care of myself.So therefore,

I Laurie, otherwise known as chemlady, promise to stay on the forum for one full year in good times and bad. I promise to keep working the low carb lifestyle, even though I may run into a rough patch here and there. Should something happen in my life and I change my mind about all of this- I promise to come to the TDC and say goodbye (death precluding this) so the many people that have supported me know what became of me. Most of all, I promise to be genuine with myself and others, at all times.

Laurie
