question to Doug

[Richard]

You answered my post last week. Thanks, this last week I have limited my total carb count per day to 10. Also limiting portion sizes. I am having a ball doing this and have lost 33 lbs in first 3 weeks. I find myself being hungry. Also have lost 5 inches in my waist. Feeling great doing it. Doug I want to lose 100lbs in 6 months. The question is am I hurting anything by such a low carb count?

    the fewer carbs the better.....i went 0 carbs per week a few times:) your 100 lbs in 6 months is doable, but will be a challenge!!!
    i commend you for setting such a lofty goal & wish you the best of luck my friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guy's know us too well!!!!  Yes, we are both lying in bed with our laptops working the forum.... Our 19 month old grandson Everest is sitting between us watching Sesame St on the flat screen

Richard, Katary answered your question correctly. I have a question though....you said in your post, I find myself being hungry. is this a misprint?

[Richard]

It was a missprint. I find myself being not hungry. Just weighed in and 4 weeks 41lbs. The reason for the goal of 100 by june is that we are taking a group of high school kids to nothern Italy and it just so happens that we are going to be in Venice for our 40th aniversary and I thought the best thing I could give her was a new me. If it keeps going like this I may change that goal to 120. But I just have one question, what kind of exercise will tighten my stomache and below my belt in the front? Also the belt loss is now 6 inches.

You go Richard , We have streched or skin so much I am sure we will all have a little extra left when we lose all are weight . But probably just good ole fashioned sit-ups is what I think Doug said he did . Congrats on your weight loss so far !
