As many of you know I have been battling like many others with hypothyroidism. My doctors have been working with medication to get my levels back to normal range. My weight loss was halted for a while but is decreasing now. My top weight was over 450lbs. I now weigh 410lbs, I still have a long way to go but I'm very happy to be losing. Thanks for all of your encouraging sentiments, they truly inspired me to stay true to low carb eating. I'll be sure to keep you posted on my progress. I pray you all are having success with your low carb lifestyle as well.

General Discussion / At my WICKS end!!!

Hi all, I got my email reminding me to check back in. I've been so very frustrated with my progress!!! I have hypothyroidism and the weight seems to want to stick like Gorilla Glue. My doctor said having this condition makes losing weight very hard. This news is so discouraging. I have so much weight to lose and at this rate it seems I'll need ETERNITY to get it off. I am on thyroid med, I pray my thyroid levels will increase

General Discussion / Russel Stovel sugar free candy

« on: December 15, 2014, 09:31:00 AM »

I absolutely love this candy! Makes me feel like I can have my cake and eat it too. Just wondering if this is too good to be true. Would eating this product daily cause me not to lose weight as fast? I don't want to over do it, but they are so yummy that I could easily make these my daily desserts.

Ask Umpa / Eggnog

Umpa how are you doing? I pray you and your family are well. I am still doing well on my low carb lifestyle. I feel so much better! I'm finally starting to get the compliments of noticeable weight loss. Usually this time of year I purchase eggnog and this year I refuse to break my lifestyle for a cup. I was wondering if you could convert or had a low carb friendly recipe for eggnog? I would love to enjoy a few cups during my winter break. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Ask Umpa / Banana Pudding

Hello Umpa,
Thanks you so much for your encouraging remarks and suggestions. This forum is definitely assisting me in being successful on this journey. I'm glad you mentioned the Ask Umpa forum, my mom keeps talking about her famous banana pudding she's bringing to our family dinner Thursday, and my lips are watering

I do not want to throw all my progress away, so I've determined to not even take a bite of it. However, I was wondering if you had an alternative low carb version of a banana pudding. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello all, I am new to the forum and would like to introduce myself to you. My name is Patrice, I'm 45 and I weight over 400lbs. I don't know my exact weight because my scale capacity is 400lbs. It stopped registering sometime ago so I know I'm well over 400lbs, just how much over is the question. I, like many of you, have battled excess weight all my life. Well, since 9yrs of age. My mom has had me on and I have been on so many diets and diet plans that I can't even imagine how many. I've been hypnotized, scrutinized, threatened, bribed etc when it comes to me losing weight. NONE of it worked. The only plan that has remotely came close to helping me win this battle was following the Atkin's plan. I know low carb eating is best for my body and although this style of eating is contrary to most of the people in my circle, I'm returning to what I know is best for ME! I'm so grateful to have come across this forum. Just knowing that there are others out there with my plight means so much. Your support and any suggestions towards helping me to be successful are truly appreciated. I too desire to encourage you all to continue the great work and look forward to seeing and hearing you success stories. May God bless us all to win this battle!!!
