Mystery leg pain
Sorry if this is in the wrong posting area. I have this horrible pain in my left thigh, starts about 1/4 of the way down and stops at the knee.

I have never eaten low carb before, but due to all sorts of 'fun' health issues my dr wants me to try high protein and low carb for a couple months to see if it helps.

new, with ALOT to lose!
Hello, I found this site looking for an online food journal, I'm really liking it so far! 2.5 years ago I was 140 lbs, healthy and athletic, now I'm at 290, and can barely do half a minute of jumping jacks! Started with a car accident, then an illness, (not making excuses for myself!), then turned into an emotional eating…
