Just a quick note to introduce myself. I have been a low carber for about 18 months now. I have lost about 30 pounds and would love to lose about 10 more. This plan has saved my life and has really changed the way I feel about myself. More importantly for me at least is the fact that I have lost fat on places on my body that I never though I would....like around my mid section and upper arms. I still need to exercise but it's like low carb living really sort of "reshapes" by burning the fat on the fattest parts of us. I plan to visit everyday since I need to stay motivated. My oldest daughter is getting married in August and I plan to be the best looking mother of the bride ever. I'm looking forward to seeing out of town relatives who haven't seen me in a few years. Can't wait to show off the new me.

Hi, Tricia! Welcome
What a great success story. It's always nice to read that someone's lost weight successfully on LC but it's even better when the person enjoys the health benefits and feels healthier, as well as thinner.
There are several people near goal here, so you'll have plenty of company.
I hope you'll move in, post often, and let us know how you're doing
Welcome to this forum, you will find it a great place to keep you motivated.
Its great to hear from someone who has lived the low carb way of life for well over a year and to appreciate the benefits that this way of life can bring.
I have only been low carbing for 7 months and really love it. My weight is coming off real slowly, but as you say there are numerous health benefits as well.
Every succes with the last part of your journey and may you be the best mother of the bride in August.
