  • Hello All!

    I'm new to the forum and I think this is a great site going here!

    I'm not on any particular diet, but due to a medical condition I pretty much have to eat a low fat diet now, or I get some grueling stomach aches. It's a little bit frustrating, but I think this can be an oppurtunity for me to start eating much healthier and make a lifestyle change. I'm hoping my particiaption in this forum will also be a good source of encouragement as I see everyone else's successes and hard work.

    If anyone would like to buddy up that would be great too!
  • Hi Junkatarian,

    Welcome to the forum. I too tend to get gruelling stomachaches when I eat certain things.

    I was doing a specific diet for a few months (for gastrointestinal problems). Then for the last month I was basically just counting calories. Now I'm starting Volumetrics...which is still basically counting calories. I'm not super strict just trying to use it all as a guide to eat healthier and continue to lose weight.

    I'm looking for a buddy to share progress and struggles with. If you want to buddy up, that would be great.

  • Hello,

    Love the forum. Not really using a system. Just trying to watch what I eat and exercise more. Hope to be more a part of the forum as I experience more in the weight loss realm.
