Just a little post to say that this morning, my scale indicated that I
had lost my 50th pound.
I usuelly don't count the kilograms, but 50 *is* a nice number.

Welcome to the 50 pound loss club!
🙂 Great going.

Low carb, for me, has been a really amazing discovery (sounds like a
cheap advertisement, doesn't it? :-)
It didn't allow me to loose really fast in the long term. It simply
allowed me to loose weight, quite constantly. I control my eating
disorder much better. Risks are not zero, but It really helps to know
that there is no "forbidden food" in the long term.
For instance, I'm having dinner with a friend in a few hours. I cooked
for him.
Roasted beef, string beens with garlic onions, parsley and butter.
I bakes a really nice apple pie and I also baked a home made bread with
whole wheat and sesam seeds.
I know that eventhough this is not low carb, it doesn't matter. Because
I will exercise a bit this afternoon. It will burn the carbs, and I may
even not leave ketosis. My body know seems to be able to switch from
glucose to fat in a finger snap, just as long as I don't overload it
with a ton of sugary [censored].

Anyway, I wanted to thank this group. You are really a big help, you
cannot imagine how.
I've done 57% of the work, here (see the figures in the signature), and
I know I will hit my final goal in a year, more or less. I'm not in a hurry.

And you know what? When I hit this goal, I will stop smoking. That will
be my reward. But that's another story...

Thanks everyone for greeting me in the 50pound loss club (FPLC ?)

I would never have thought that one day I would do it, but I just put a
few photos on a "confidential" page ;-)
Only for the curiosity of Saffire ;-)

I'm not seeing anything on the pages (actually, in Mozilla I see nothing at all
-- in IE I see two boxes with Xs in them).

I didn't see anything either - but then again - it said the pictures were
"confidential" for Saffire - so I thought - maybe I wasn't supposed to see
them. But then Saffire said she couldn't see them either. Someone is
taking this confidentiality thing too far. LOL 🙂

Congrats, Huey. Remember that lose and loose are different. A diet can
help you "lose" weight and make your clothes feel "loose". And you
know... it's "been" awhile since I've had string "beans".

No offense meant, of course.

Again, congrats on your achievement. You're doing much better than me
so far.

Well, I know I should always read again my posts before I send them.
lose/loose is a mistake I often make. been/bean is a lack of attention.

Of course. I'm almways ok to learn things about english.

Thanks.You could post your numbers too, maybe.
I'm doing ok, but not great. Let's keep in mind I lost 50lbs, yes, but I
started in October 2002. Nearly 2 years ago.
Compared to the amazing loss of some of group, I may appear to be a
small loser.

It's great that you have learned this about your body. Pretty amazing, huh?

Well actually, what's more amazing yet is to see that this is how our
body should function everyday. The fact that sugars can mess it all up
*is* amazing. 🙂
