Default Day #1

Hello Everyone!

I just finished reading the carbohydrate addict's healthy heart program and have began a low carb diet today. I am 26 years old and do not want to develop the health problems that are now effecting my parents. Eating a low carbohydrate diet makes sense, I only wish I would have started it sooner! I would welcome anyone advise or stories about launching a low carb lifestyle. Thanks.

Lucinda

Welcome to the board Lucinda!

In the red bar at the top of the page there is a section called Stories. It has the stories of some of the people who use the board. The Tips section,(also in the red bar) is full of great advice from Doreen on low-carbing. If you have any specific questions, ask away!

Loot at the Journal section in the forum. We have our individual diaries there. It helps to keep us on track. The area is magnificently patrolled by Sergeant Wendy!
