If you want tips and advice this is the place to be!

I have found this whole enviroment very infomative.

Just finishing up my fouth day, still going strong, it seems evenings on the weekend are the toughest time, boy I would've liked to snack on something other than protien.

But stood firm, and some steak and cheese and a big glass of water!

Brady, are you eating your veggies? You don't have to just snack on protein, you know.

Welcome to LCE, Polo! I noticed on your profile that you're a student, great that you've decided to embrace a healthy lifestyle. BTW, are you in high school or college?

Stop in often, we're open 24 hrs.!

Take care~

It's fitting that you called attention to this article almost a year to the day since t\you first posted it. I read when I was a Newbie and it has even more meaning now after learning so much at this incredible website.

Polo - just stick around and absorb it at whatever pace is comfortable.

Welcome, Polo...good to have you! Ditto on the above advice and DRINK LOTS OF WATER! I also found April's "Possible Help For Newbies" at the top of this forum to be very helpful when I was a newbie. Good luck!
