Having lurked here a while, I just wanted to pop in and say hi as a newbie, though I have been active for years on some other forums. I am LCing purely for intestinal health (IBD/IBS) as well as heart health rather than for weight loss. In my high carb days , years ago, I was actually closer to my ideal weight than now. It is a great to see such a wonderful meeting ground for low carbers of such different stripes to gather. Those (the majority) of you here for weight loss can take comfort knowing that your overall health will benefit in many other ways, I am certain.

Yup - people report everything from improved blood pressure to glossier hair. Welcome, from one San Mateo County resident to another. :)

Thanks neighbor! And congrats on your amazing progress. If there was a "progress" for my overall/intestinal health, I'd list 80%... not my magic bullet, but the LC WOE lets me enjoy a normal life.

Hey, San Mateo! I lived in Belmont when I was in high school! I now live in the east bay. :)

Hey back, East Bay! My old stomping ground until I moved a-x the Bay last year (from Hayward).
