We are all blessed to be here together. Extremely supportive, non-judgmental. Love you all! I remember when I first joined and was asking so many questions no one told me to go look things up or read books or talk to other people. Everyone was so patient in helping me figure this out even though I know they had done it many times before and have done it many times since. You know who you are.

That's a really good point about this group. When I started I tried to read everything but still had questions. After being in other forums I was at first nervous to ask. But everyone answered with great info and links to really helpful places. Without that kind of support I'm certain I wouldn't given up. I know the info is out there but it's so overwhelming when your new, guidance is so important. You don't find that anywhere these days.

@ajmurray1234 welcome! So happy someone guided you over here. You will find lots of support and advice. I started a little heavier than your start weight in March this year, I just weighed in at 144 yesterday, 1 lb below my original goal weight. This is by far the easiest and most fulfilling way I've ever lost weight.

Hello All,

Okay after two disastrous post regarding going LCHF; I have received advice from supporters to join this group. So here I am. I started LCHF last Sunday and weighed 172, as of this morning I am 164. I look forward to hearing about everyone's experiences, tips and advice and will offer those as well.

Thanks for having me!

I'm so happy you found us. I've gotten yelled at via PM for funneling LCers to groups, but you'll get great info and support here!

I do too

If I get booted off MFP for attempting to direct people wanting more info about lower carb eating to the low carb group....

So be it

There are lots of other forums.
