Rebsee, if you go back and reread the last few posts, you'll see that no one at any time asked the poster to leave the forum because she wanted to combine WW with low carb. We merely explained that the focus of this board is low carb, and that she may be happier elsewhere.

If you read the whole thread, you will understand why we feel that counting WW points is not compatible with low carb. Nothing about the WW plan is compatible with low carb - it is a low fat, low calorie plan. If anyone prefers to follow WW, or any other low fat, low cal plan, that is their right, and we wish them all the luck in the world.

But this board is for the exclusive support of members following published low carb plans.

Many of us tailor or "tweak" those plans - that is fine. Tailoring other non low carb plans is not low carbing. As we have said several times now, we wish them well, and will offer URL's of other boards for them.
