hi guys, i haven't posted in a long time because it feels like all the "semi-lowcarb folks have gine somewhere...i am still hanging in there on my life without bread plan. it has become a way of life for me. altogether a loss of of 27 pounds with no pain and feeling good. for those who dont know, much higher than atkins (72 grams carbs) but , to me, much more livable.i am losing weight slower than the extreme plans but i can attend family functions, have a few carbs, (wine, little goodies) now and then and, for me, its the only way i can do this. i have tried induction before and couldn't do it for more than a week. also, i am a senior and doing anything considered abit "extreme" affects me more than a younger person. anyway, would like to hear from some others on this link. tell me how and what you are doing..best wishes
