Hello , Wow I just stumbled on to this group while looking for some products that had reviews before I wasted money on junk agian. I really was feeling a bit like the odd man out as nobody around me is doing the low carb diet anymore. I have already filled my computer notepad with lots of new reciepes and ideas,Thanks .I especially found the reviews on products great fun. :thup: I am looking forward to meeting everyone.

Hi and welcome, Old Lady! :wave:

I know how you feel being the odd man out...it's interesting because people have been asking me just how I'm losing the weight. When I say low carb, they're interested...that is, until they find out that I'm not eating sugar or starch. THEN they say, *well, but I couldn't give up my cake, candy, pasta, potatoes, whatever.*

But that's how I'm losing weight, by giving up those things. Which I don't really miss, except in a momentary sort of way. But then, in the next breath, they bemoan how much weight they need to lose.

And I eat my yummy salmon salad and continue to lose. :D

I hope you enjoy it here. I've found this forum to be a great source of information and support!

Best of luck in your journey, and you're NOT alone.

Hi, Old Lady, except I thought I was the Old Lady around here. LOL
I agree, low carb isn't as popular as it once was and I think its because the new GI diets and Volumetrics, but everyday folks are coming back, including myself, because it works.
Check out LindaSues recipe site also; http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/index.html She has both menus and recipes and some awesome ideas.
Welcome home, glad you joined
