I'm new here and just wanted to say hello. I've been lurking about and reading post for about a week. It's nice to know I'm not alone in my struggle to lose weight. I've been low carbing for about two months now and even though I'd love for the lbs to be coming off faster than they have, I realize it's gonna take time. I also realize this is going to be a life time commitment.

Hey? Are there any more people here near Southeast Missouri?

Welcome aboard Witchyone, glad you found us.

It's great to start while understanding it's a life style commitmen. Plenty of like-minded folks here

Nice to meet you too!

Wa'il is right, plenty of lifers around here ..

I'm like you, the weight loss is slo. I've been lowcarbing for over a year, and will probably take at least another year to reach my goal. But I won't stop eating lowcarb ever, because of the improved health and well-being. I don't ever want to feel as run-down and blah as I did when I was gorging on lowfat grains.

Look forward to reading more posts from you..
