Returning to low-carb...

Hello all,
I've done the low-carb diet before and was very successful, but when I was pregnant with my last child I gained it all back. Today is day 3 for me and I have lost a whopping 9 pounds!! I know it is probably water, but it is still 9 pounds less of me to carry around! I am hoping that the weight will still keep coming off even if it isn't as rapid. I need to get back to making my baby's costume, but needed a reality check on how important candy is. Good luck to everyone who is struggling all the temptation out there. Eating that candy certainly is not worth the good feeling we'll have when we are lighter!!!

Hello!
Hello Everyone,

THank you for the welcome. I meant to post a thread in the low-carb support thread, but I must of made a mistake! HOpefully this one will go in the right place.

yes, I did join the 100 + club awhile back, but didn't post again becuase I was having trouble staying on the low cal diet! But I am doing much better on the low-carb. I am feeling so much better!

I didn't eat ANY Halloween candy yet!!!!! I am so proud of myself. We went and bought an exercise bicycle today and I cant wait to get started.

I am just so excited to be losing again. It sounds like you all are doing great. Good luck today and I will post again soon!

Mary
