Year one

Stefan Holm said:

Well, I've been through a year of lowcarbing now, and really don't
feel like stopping anytime soon. I've so far dropped more than 80
pounds, lost more than a third of my circumference, and I certainly
feel a lot better and fitter (I've even taken up bike-riding again
after several years of busses). All that without going hungry or
feeling much restricted in my food choices.

Of course there have been both ups and downs, but nothing dramatic
enough to discourage me from continuing my weight-loss. Through it
all alt.support.diet.low-carb has been a (mostly) great forum, so
thank you all, I will definitely continue reading this group (with the
appropriate filters applied of course...).

For those interested I've updated my page with a new photo.

Now, that is friggin' impressive. Your short little webpage speaks
massive volumes. One small step for man, one giant leap.... you get the
idea.

Congrats.

Hey, you've grown a neck : )

Great job, I'm sure you'll continue to goal and then maintain successfully.

Great progress. I like your graph, though I have trouble relating to
kilograms.

Your graph shows the kind of spikes that mine does at times, and also the
overall trend. It underscores the need to ignore day-by-day readings, and
only look at longer term trends over weeks.

Do you do any calorie counting?

Way to go. Shaving makes a difference in your picture too. I speak from
experience.

I started doing it a couple of months or so ago (except for the past
two weeks - for various reasons they've been a bit too stressful). I
try to keep below 1500 a day.
