wow - how long have you been on this program? Do you follow the program absolutely? Do you ever slip off, and how do you get back on track?

I went on it last April 1. Mind you, I was a critic here of the low-carb diet and took a lot of grief for it during 2002 and some of 2003. Finally I decided to give it a try myself. I have been fat for most of my adult life and tried the traditional "low-fat" diet several times and attributed my failure for a lack of willpower on my part. I was just so damn hungry during those low-fat diets that I always gave in and gained back all my weight and then some.

Well on the low-carb (I prefer to call it normal-carb) diet, it was so easy to stick to it because I was never hungry. Also, the diet gave me the energy to sustain in intensive exercise program that continues to this day (and I hope for life). I walk briskly several miles per day and I look forward to those daily walks - in all sorts of weather.
