Yeah, after I lost 150 pounds, my Mom said: "April, that's a whole person you lost."

She was right. Now I'm the new person.

Hello everyone,I really enjoy reading all the messages,and such a comfort to know others understand how one feels, I am only on my first day of my 3rd week of LC,and seeing all the success you have all had has been a great inspiration to me,I have lost 3.4kg,or 7.48 lbs and even though I have a lot more to lose ,I feel much better in myself already, more energy, and a happier frame of mind,and best of all ,not feeling hungry and have lost my craving for sweet foods, I make up sugar free jelly and cut up 5 strawberries and have a tablespoon of thickened cream as my desert if I am looking for a sweet treat,
I am following this program with the support of this group only, as my Doctor is against low carb eating, I cant understand why he is so set against it, and have copied success stories to show him ,but to no avail,so I have decided to go it alone,I live in a country town,and he is only Doctor here.I figure if I dont get my weight off,I will have other health issues to worry about, I already am type 2 Diabetic,and suffer with Rumathoid Arthritis,but I have felt better in all ways this last few weeks,so it must be doing me good,lol just think I have lost 3/4 a bag of potatoes ,hahahahaha ,I went to supermarket and picked up 4 x 2kg bags of onions, and thought wow they feel heavy, and I have just lost that weight , no wonder I am happy. thank you for listening ...and good luck with LC for the next week ...cheers Maureen24
