I’m back! I’ve visited the forum occasionally over the past few months but haven’t posted. I lost over 75 pounds in about 10 months, and have kept it off for about a year. That’s the true miracle of FTS. By always being mindful of carbs I didn’t gain the weight back. In my pre-FTS life I lost 40 pounds three times and always gained it (and more) back quickly. Making FTS a lifestyle means avoiding the carbs that cause the gain. Now, I have to get more strict with myself about staying under 20/day to lose the remaining pounds. See you again soon!

Hi downeast! :)

So glad to hear from you again!
And to hear another testimony that the FTS lifestyle REALLY works.

Like many of us, I've been on more weight loss plans, diets, hypnosis, etc. than I can remember.
But all of them led me to the same place... The weight ALWAYS came back PLUS more!
I felt like a human balloon that would occasionally lose some air only to have some jerk (i.e. carbs) blow me up again!

By simply being careful about carb intake, we can prevent the FAT monster from taking up residence in our bodies.
And the FTS lifestyle, will not only help us do that, but keep us healthier too! ;D
What you do today is what matters!
