I'm a 35 year old Swedish mom (three kids) who's trying to lose about 120 lbs... I gained a whole lot of weight 11 years ago, when I met my husband. And then three pregnancies and a sugar addiction on top of that = not good!

Now I'm eating a low carb high fat-diet; 80% of what I eat is fat... (only 12 grams of carbs/day). So far I've lost 14 lbs in 25 days; I have lots of energy and I feel great! My husband is on the same diet, he only needs to lose like 30 lbs though, but he's supporting me

Even if I enjoy eating meat and butter a lot, I do fight with the "sugar monster" inside me...I want chocolate! I'm so grateful every night for not surrendering to the monster; I'm going to lose all those punds!

Welcome to 3FC =)

There's a low-carb area under Diet Central where you can chat with other low-carbers. There's also a 30-somethings section, and a 100lb club for those of us aiming to lose 100 pounds or more.

Dive on into the different threads. Glad to have you join us

Hello

I've had great success with low carbing and I know how horrible the sugar monster is!! Best of luck
