Hi,

Another here from Sunny So. California. I live in Long Beach, more specifically on the Los Alamitos Bay Peninsula with the sand right out my front walk.

Anyone else from Long Beach?

Wow, Play doh.. I live just a few miles from Jelly Belly...like 2 miles or less.

Yeah... more Ca folks here.
We all gotta get to know each other here and then some day we can have a low carb meeting in person (at a salad bar restaurant or a steak house).

Hi, I'm living in Chico. I'm new to forums, having tried one before and never did really figure it out. This one is more interesting to me because my life has been pretty much one big diet since about age 28, trying to learn what works for me. Half my lifetime ago (I'm almost 67), a smart Dr. told me to just eat meat, if I'm hungry buy a hamburger and eat all but the bun. I did that for awhile, didn't lose any weight but felt better, and since then I have experimented with all kinds of things, ending with low carb, moving toward no carb (almost), to no carb (almost) plus counting calories. This works. I'm happy, not hungry, and I DO live in California I've lived here since '65, starting in San Bernardino, then San Gabriel, Redwood City, Boonville and other places in Mendocino County, 20 months of bliss in San Francisco, and finally to Chico for the second time. I'm wondering what wonderful things I will pick up on this forum site as I am practicing an Eskimo diet?

Hi everyone. I just enjoyed reading all these familair city names. I was born and raised in San Jose, lived in San Ramon for a few years and now live in Hollister.

Been LCing for 12 days and so far so good! Still not tired of the basic foods yet. Not craving carbs yet. I think I am so determined this time to make it work I have changed my mindset. Snacks aren't non-WOE things to me anymore. A snack is a food that is LC. I make my kids meals and don't have the urge any more to even lick the spoons.

How did the rest of you do this weekend?

Hi MJ, I am a native to SJ. My hubby still commutes to SJ or SC every day and I am SO glad I don't have to. I work at home and get to spend more time with my two boys (3 and 8).

What area are you in? I was in South SJ; the Blossom Hill/Santa Teresa area.

Hi all you Californians!!!!
I've been away for awhile. Health issues. My hubby has been policing me and keeping me off the computer (for good reasons)
I don't want to dwell on the last 6 weeks of health issues, but I'm back.
I was calling out sick a lot and one week actually called out 3 days in a row. So I finally started listening to my doc (since my husband was at the last few appointments/ER visits with me). He put his foot down and got on my case if I got on the phone or computer in the evenings. For the last 2 weeks, I have made it through full work weeks and with a little energy left over. I'm not 100% better yet, but with lots of R and R for another month or so, my doc says by June I should be my old self again.

Anyway... I will be on the comuter only 1 night a week and sometime Saturday mornings for the next week. (I have to go to bed by 8 at night for a few more weeks) I'm up at about 5 am, before getting sick bed time was 10 or so.

Anyway... getting back on low carb has been rough for me. I need go get it down to a science again, where it all becomes habit.

I'm still hoping we all get to meet sometime in the near future. It would be so fun!!!! I always here of some of the East Coasters doing it each year and they have a great time.

Everyone have a great week.

Cheryl
