Realized this was going to be my 1000th post and I just wanted to say a great big THANK YOU to so many of you here who have been helpful in times of trouble, encouraging when I needed a kick in the pants and who have rejoiced with me when things have gone well.

Although I think 1000 posts indicates I'm a bit of a "junkie" on this site, it also represents to me that I've stuck with this thing. Eating LC is not just one more thing I've started and didn't continue. It's not just something I'm doing for a few weeks to lose a couple of pounds. This is just me now. This is part of what I need to do for the rest of my life in order to stay healthy. The way I eat now is just as important as all those other things I need to do to take care of myself: pray, exercise, do good works, laugh as much as possible, have my tests/mammograms/whatever...Somewhere along the way we all seem to find that fork in the road (ironic, no?) and we either take a turn back to our former ways of life OR we choose to stay the course with our backs to sugar, white flour, empty carbs of all kinds. I've made the right choice for me.

Again, thanks to all who have put up with my silly questions, opinionated posts and frequent whining! I apologize to any and all who may've been offended by anything I've had to "say" here. And as we say in the South, I appreciate you!!

Congratulations on your 1,000 post. I'm becoming a junkie myself so we'll see how long it takes me to reach that as well.

Congrats on the weight loss and the big 1000! I know when I am coming up to a new milestone (next one 500) I tend to post more ROFLOL....
