Smile Time for a change!

Hello everyone
First off - I am excited about what lies ahead for me.

I had success with LC diet a few years ago only to go back to eating carbs again and gain quite a bit of weight in the last few years. In that time I hurt my back and needed back surgery as well so all the more reason for me to shed these pounds.

I hope to find support and friendship here and I will certainly offer the same

Good Luck to all

Melinda

The scale was nice to me this morning as well, but it was just water loss....

I am so ready to lose it again :-)

Had a nice salad last, lettuce, tomato, tuna, egg, avocado and some ranch :-)

Melinda and Koifish, I have added you to my buddy list. I was thinking since we all started on the same day we can try to stick together and motivate each other :-)

That's what I need to do after work tonight. I got the ticker at Tickerfactory.com

I plan on staying on Induction for a long time if I can stand it! If not I will gradually move to the next stage.
