Hello Everyone!

I have just finished reading the carbohydrate addict's healthy heart program and have began the program today. After reading the book I found that it made alot of sense and am anxious to begin a low carb diet and lifestyle. I was wondering if anyone had any advice or information to share with an individual just starting the program. I have read and learned about several subjects on this site and have found it to be very informative. I have been battling with my weight since I was a child and am excited that I may have found my enemy...CARBOHYDRATES!!! Being 26 years old I am not wanting to develop the health problems I have seen my parents develop. I appreciate any support or info. you may have. Thanks.

Hi Lucinda. I am a fairly new member here too and love the friendship and support from everyone. I've been on Atkins for 5 weeks, with a loss of 16 lbs so far. Although not too familiar with your program, I think the basis is the same. For me, it is one day at a time and don't get frustrated if you don't lose too quickly. Check the forums daily for great info and good humoured support. This WOL is really the best. Cheers.

Lara,

Thank you for your well wishes and encouragement! It is terrific to have an outlet like this to be a source of motivation and support, as well as, information. Good luck on your continued progress! Thanks Again!
