Default Must..... Lose.... Weight
Hello everyone!

Summer is about to start and I have decided I really NEED to lose weight. I did low carb dieting about 5 years ago and had great success. Since then I have moved, started teaching, and find myself slowly gaining weight.

Today (May 26) is the first day of low carbing.

I am a high school science teacher and only have two more days with students. I should have time this summer to eat right and excercise. I just need to force myself to do it!

Wish me luck.

Good luck! If you've done it before I am sure you can do it again

Default First Week
I'm sure you all know the first week is the hardest. If I can do that, I should be okay... I need to get the carb cravings out of my system. I keep wanting sweets... or something...

I had some gum earlier... and am now sukcing down diet Mt. Dew. Caffine will have to come later... if at all.

My kids want to make ice cream. Eek! They can make it, I just need to not eat it!
