Welcome on board!! GL on the weight loss. I've already lost 35 and more importantly, my shape has changed and I've lost about 6 " off my waist (judging from my belts).

My one piece of advice, look at ALL the carbs, not just the net carbs. I've found that the only carbs I can subtract from the total is the fibre. Many have "net carbed" themselves into weight gain.

Hey there! Thank you for the nice Welcome! And Congrat's on your weight loss! That is terrific! And I just came to the realization a few days ago, that I too, can only subtract the fiber from the carb total. It just made more sense to me. And YES! I truly believe that you can get yourself into a whole bunch of trouble if you are not careful with the whole "net carb" idea! I guess great minds think alike!! Lol! Thanks again for the nice Welcome! Good luck on your continued success!
