Mindy - funny how willpower isn't a prerequisite for success on Low Carb Living. We were torturing ourselves on low-fat dieting. Without willpower we CAN'T low fat diet - it's like punishment for being fat.

Low Carb Living is about rewarding yourself for being healthy.

Think of it this way for a minute: Low Carb Living is not about weight loss. The weight loss is just an added bonus on the road to being all-round healthy. On Low Carb lifestyles, our body returns to it's ideal weight for healthy living. The increased energy is proof of that. It's a way of living that addresses ALL aspects of life. Low FAT dieting just focuses on weight loss alone.

Carrie - you already ARE a part of this maintenance area! Congratulations on reaching the final approach to the Weight Goal Landing Strip . Once you "arrive" you will be instrumental in guiding all the others in for a smooth arrival.
