I am a newbie as well, I started the Low Carb Diet nine days ago, and am extreamily happy to say I haven't cheated yet.
Though temptation did rear its ugly head the other day. My wife and I had some friends over for dinner, which went over smoothly but later in the evening my wife wanted me to go get some blizzards from DQ. I thought sure, I have had enough self control all week, so this would not be a problem. I was overtaken in the drive thru, while staring at a picture of a special Blizzard they had. So, I ordered one, BUT I am happy to say that after pulling out of the drive thru, and onto the street I had regained control. I took my ice cream home and dumped it down the garbage disposal.
I currently weigh 313lbs, but am unsure of my starting wieght (guessing 320lbs) because I didn't have a working scale untill today. I was very upset to step on that scale today and see those poundrous numbers, because I was at an all time high of 284lbs less then a year ago...
I have the determination and the plan, so the rest will be history...
