Hi! Another LCFer here - what name did you post under there?

I started a thread in the Lounge area for LCF displacements, if you'd like to join us there!

Another LCfer here. I hope to me more active here than I was there.

I've been a low carber for about 18 years and every time I fall off the LC wagon, I regret it with many lbs added. I've been low carbing again since last May and feel great!

Welcome! Sorry you guys are losing your place over there. I've eavesdropped on some interesting topics. This is a good place.

Do you know if lowcarb friends will be available as an archive anywhere? There are so many recipes etc that will be lost when it shuts down.

I dont think i have an acct over there but i've definitely accessed it in the past.

Welcome to your new home. Sorry your old home is shutting down.... changing to a new forum is hard....

Look around, challenges and buddies sections, as well as recipes and informationals.

Hope you enjoy your new home.

Thank you for all the warm welcomes!

Charski - I was Beowulf there, but that name was taken here (though never used it seems).

I don’t think the LCF content will be archived or available, but the announcement is pretty new. Perhaps more will be revealed.

Walnut, we have until June 1st before they kill it. Can the Wayback Machine save stuff like that, I wonder?

This is my first post.

I was (am) Goldwingnut over on LCF and have been pretty successful in achieving my weight loss goals. I credit my renewed health in large part to the LCF community.... and my Daily Weigh-Ins on the Century Club.

The GROUP aspect has become important to me, and I'm also sorry to see them shut down.

I lost 140 pounds in 11 months through KETO + 20/4 Intermittent Fasting, and only recently have decided to go on down a little more. I put down 170# as a goal, but honestly...I don't know what my ideal weight should be. I need to continue to add lean mass, and muscle is heavier than fat.

So.

I've been bouncing around 185 since just before Thanksgiving of 2017. And I feel really good most days....ridiculously good some days.

I am a self-employed garment decorator, and am working on my Grandpa-ing skills. Luckily...I am married to the best grandma on Planet Earth, (NOT. Joking.) and she helps me, lots.

Stan

Hello! I am another displaced person from LCF. I was a member there for a good number of years and am so happy and relieved that this site has graciously made us welcome. Looking forward to getting to know new people and staying in contact with old friends.

Hello, and thank all of you for the generous welcome to those of us looking for a new home with LCF closing!

One thing that seems to be puzzling some of us - is there a way to change the time display off military time? We've gone to Settings and Options and put in our correct time zones, but the display on the pages still seems to be military time. Is that just the way it stays?

Anyway, thanks again to all the folks here for opening your doors!
