Did the MD people meet for dinner last May? How did it go? I know of several new Low-carbers now in DC - all could stand to have some support in addition to the info from the internet and books.

I'm finally about ready to give up coffee (which, I'm pretty sure was the reason I didn't lose another pound after my initial whoosh when I did without) again and see if I can't do better in the next two months.

The folks at my work are still offering WW~W sessions. It's just not compatible with the LC WOE, so I'm not signing up this year.

But I'd make an effort to visit a local group. Those airplane seats are just getting too small for my hindquarters. Something's gotta give! (grumble grumble....)

Hi-

I live in Timoium, right behind the MD state fairgrounds. Greetings to all, I'm happy to find owhter low-carbers nearby. I've been doing the Atkins thing for about 5 weeks and have lost 13 lbs so far-I'm JAZZED about this WOE. I have reaped so many benefits other than just weight loss, just wish I could make others understand (SIGH!)

Anyway, would love to hear from any/all of you.

Atkins RULES!!

Hi, Cookymonstr-

I buy Atkins products at GNC, and they seem to be everywhere. Good Luck to you-

I live in Montgomery county and need all the help "buddies "can give me.

Happy to be your buddy! Are you an active poster? I tried to send you a private message and couldn't b/c I got a message about you not being active or some such rot.

I live in Timonium, right behind the state fairgrounds. If you have questions, or need encouragement, send me a private message-after you have put me on your buddy list, of course.

Congratulations on making the decision to do something wonderful for yourself!

I'll be happy to support you all along the way. I'm doing maintenance, another whole adventure, but very, very good--

All the Best,
JAN

I'm in Prince Georges county!!

Hey, Sheas! Good to know another low-carber in the area. Looks like you are making GREAT progress-congrats!!!

Let us know how you're doing.

I'm on maintenance now, and loving life!

Doing well 5 more lbs to go this is the part I hate slowing it down how long did it take you?

Anyone live near Catonsville?

I work in Pikesville, live in Timonium. Want to meet? Would love to get together with someone in my area!

Does the Eastern Shore count? Get this - I'm in the store and scanning food labels and here the word "Carbs".... I bounce into the conversation - starved for other carb counting chubs....

At a dinner/meeting/barbeque I was asking the server if I could have three pieces of chicken and was there sugar in the salad dressing? Everyone else in line was wondering why this obese granny was all of a sudden getting picky about her food.

I can't believe that a stick that is just about the last color purple would turn me on.

Do mosquitoes have carbs?
