 Hi everyone Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum but not entirely new to low carbing. I did low carbing after the birth of my first child and was very successful with it. I then gave birth to my second child and the weight really didn't come off. The motivation wasn't there either. Now I'm motivated. Um...the big trip to the Dr. did it. He told me that I should shed 20 pounds or so. Um..that is a bit extreme since I'm only 136 pounds and a 20 pound loss would put me at 116. That would be the same weight as highschool which to me is a nice dream LOL. I always knew that I needed to shed a bit of weight and I guess hearing it from a Dr. was the wake up call. So..I started my low carb today. I hope to be here a lot and hope to be able to report some progress. Laurie or Lucy (which is my nickname in real life)  |

| Re: Hi everyone Hi, Lucy. Welcome to a friendly and helpful place, and good luck with your new journey into low-carbing. Many of us here are pretty enthusiastic about it as a strategy for lifetime weight management, way beyond weight loss. Have you chosen a particular low-carb plan? Best wishes. |

| Re: Hi everyone Thanks very much for the warm welcomes. Barb, I am doing the Atkins. I agree that it is a lifetime commitment and this is something that I plan to stick with for the rest of my life. I strayed once before and I'm right back to square one so I've learned from that. |
