Looking for a friend

Reba4791 · 01-22-2004, 04:31 AM

Good Morning! I am 48 years old and have been trying to lose weight for years. I would like to lose 50 pound. After all those diets, low-carb seems to good to be true. I figure it's worth a try.
So, I'm looking for someone in similar situation for mutual support.
One thing I have trouble with is lunch. I am an auditor, and I go to different businesses every day. I'd rather take lunch, but I almost have to assume lunch will be something cold. Any suggestions?

Hello, you have come to the right place. I have lost so far 43 pounds on the WOE in only 8 months time. I think it is fantastic,as I too have tried and failed in years past. You will see as you get acclamated to this WOE how easy it becomes.
Now that said, did you read the book? You need to do a strict 14 days of induction. That cleanses your system of all sugar,starches etc... You also need to drink half your body weight in water everyday. You will find that by day 3 or 4 your food cravings will dissapear. But you need and I can't say it enough, to read the book. If you have any questions just come back to the BB and post them and I'm sure some one will answer you.
Now as for your lunches, well theres tuna salad, cucumbers, hard boiled eggs and numerous other things that you can take for lunch. Sugar free jello ect. ect.....
Hope this helps you out
