Hi there

I'm Tracey, new Mommy of boy/girl twins. I had the babies 10 weeks ago and I'm now ready to begin getting rid of the extra 20 lbs I still have from my pregnancy and the 20 lbs I had on before I got pregnant.

I am seeking ideas on weight loss and looking for a weight loss buddy. I am really leaning toward a LOW CARB DIET.

Please email me with your thoughts. Look forward to chatting.

Thanks Mamaj !

When and where is "the daily" is it a chat?

BIG CONGRATS ON THOSE TWINS!!!!!!

The daily is the thread that usually titled "Daily and then the day and date." It is the place where we just gab about what is going on in our lives and not necessarily about food! It helps us to get to know each other better and also to support the whole person and not just their dieting.

Are you on any specific plan Tracey? Let us know because we (i should speak for myself!) are a nosy bunch!

Good luck and ask lots of questions and post often so that we can get to know you!

my suggestion to yuou is to grab a book and read there like was stated many different plans but we are all a great bunch, we have the daily which is lableled and dated, we have a support group, fur those that require the perpetual kick in the butt, and want it, and we have exercise group, ww'low carb, and threads about most everything, please join us anywhere and everywhere, if you have a specific question i am sure we can help. just ask.

welcome aboard.

Welcome to our forum and congrats on your twins! There are a lot of low carb plans available to choose from, some do Atkins, I do Carbohydrate Addicts Lifespan Program (CALP), still others do Sugar busters, the Zone, and others. Not every low carb plan is meant for every person, you have to sort out which one is best for you. There are plenty of websites out there with information, but I really suggest you pay a visit to your local library and check out some low carb books and read, read, read. Good Luck and hope to get to know you on the daily!
