Hey All,

I'm 145lbs, 5'3" and I'm working to lose 15lbs on a low carb diet. Most of the low carbers I meet on this site have a starting weight that exceeds mine by 80-100lbs, in most cases; so I have a hard time comparing their progress (and difficulties) to mine. I was hoping to find someone else closer in weight--who is also low carbing-- to compare myself with.

    That's awesome! How long have you been at it? One week for me. So far, I'm down 3lbs. I know most of that is water, but I"m wondering when do I kick in to the true fat burn. My carb count is between 20g-60g a day.

    How long have you been at it? And how many carbs are you eating a day?

    Hey I'm usually at 30 to 60. I had a few cheat days probably about a weeks worth and I've been at it since valentines day.

    Your weight loss looks really good. How fast is it coming off. I'm in week 2, so far I've lost 6lbs. I feel soooo good about it, despite the fact I know much of it is water. How much have you lost since you started on Valentine's Day?
