Hi, I'm Dee, 33 year old insurance agent living in Lawton, OK looking for low-carb buddies (or any buddies interesting in weight loss and/or getting healthy). I'm on Day 4 and have lost 6 lbs so far, but it sure is a struggle. Add me if you'd like!

Thanks!

    Low carb, high fat. Has been great for all my health indicators. In the first 8 months (August '11 to may '12) my cholesterol and triglycerides dropped 30% and returned blood glucose i well into the normal range. No more pre-diabetic indicators.
    My doctor thinks it was the fish oil. I told her it was also all the wonderful fatty meats, whole eggs, sausage, cheese.

    Down 45 pounds since last August. 85 or so to go.

    I am doing low carb as well. I tried no carbs before for 2 weeks and lost like 13 pounds but it was very hard to maintain. Keep up the great work!

    I'm doing low-carb kinda...

    I'm doing 30% carbs, 35% fat, 35% protein. (I may lower the carbs as I go along, but for right now, that's a drastic reduction for me!)

    Eating every 3 hours.

    1,300 calorie limit.

    It's kind of a little bit of everything. After trying a million different "diets", I came up with my own, lol. This is my first week so I can't tell you if it works yet. But I would love some low-carb buddies, so any low-carbers, feel free to add me! :)
