Newbie!
« on: April 11, 2011, 03:42:25 PM »
Hi!  I am a newbie!  My name is Lori and I bought Doug's books in February.  I read the books and did not get started until this last week.  This past week I started paying closer attention to my carb intake and lost 3.5 lbs!  YIPPEE!  I did not stay at 20 carbs each day.  I ate more carbs than that...  I cannot believe how easy this is and my results are outstanding!  For the first time in my life, I am kinda proud of me!  To whoever is reading this and is contemplating trying this new lifestyle out....  Don't wait!  It's easy and it's working!

Starting Weight on 4/5/11:  222.8
Current Weight on 4/11/11:  219.2
59 more to go!

Welcome lorijeanne to a lifestyle you can keep! Sometimes it's so easy it feels like cheating, even as the pounds fall off. Be sure to keep posting and let us know how you're doing. Oh and get yourself a ticker for your profile so you can watch as the number goes down.

Welcome  :) :)
