I almost want to make that a quote in signature. I would if it wasn't already so long. I may post it on the fridge instead.

Hey everyone, I've posted here and there around this place already but I feel like it belongs here too. I've lost a dizzying 5.5 pounds this WEEK. That's after a full month of only 4lbs, then another month of only 3 lbs and last month having lost only 2.5 lbs. So I am ecstatic that the scale is finally MOVING.

Oh...and my skinny jeans are now my fat jeans. The jeans I hung as my goal pants when I started this are too big!

Yes there is growing evidence to that effect (that some people are carb sensitive). I lost 55 pounds when I changed to low-carb.

On the other hand some people can't eat a lot of meat (are meat-sensitive) so it's very individual.

Not me though, I feel great on high-protein.

Welcome Sarah! I lost 30 lbs on a lower carb diet before, but did not stick with it. I do well on protein as well, but my husband does not. I tend to become constipated on carbs (good, healthy, fiber filled carbs) and he becomes constipated on protein.
