Hi everyone

Hi
KanDo here,
I had been on this diet last year, but I found the lack of support a little hard to bear. In fact when I stopped doing the diet, it was mainly because I felt to weird being the only person I knew eating this way, and in fact had a relative tell me that by eating cheese I would only add on weight to my frame. I am so happy to have found a support group.

I am just so happy to have found this site.

Hi from around the lake in St Catharines!

It's hard to have people sneer at your diet choices. My two closets buddies are vegetarians! But hey - YOU know your body best, and you don't owe anyone any explanations.

I LOVE that cat!

Best of luck!

Hi Kando - Welcome. As others have said, lots of support and encouragement here. I know it's hard to be eating differently than others. The nice thing is that lo carb eating is getting to be much more popular & of course, on this site, everyone understands what you're doing! Good luck on this new WOE.

If it is support you are looking for...you are at the right place!

why do people have to judge you if you eat this way??? When the ones who are judging are stuffing their face with over processed, artifical crap???

I think people who put down this diet are really afraid to face the fact that they are not eating healthy themselves.

Howdy and welcome Kando! I think you'll find all of the support that you need in these forums. Lots of fantastic people and lots of pages exploding with low carb information. I find alot of help in the recipie section also because I'm just a person that needs to have alot of variety to make this diet work, but not everyone is like that.

Good luck on this journey. Can't wait to see your results!
