Weight Loss Results

Okay, so we started a low-carb diet in August of 2003. I don't know if I ever posted our results. Dave lost about 30 pounds within the first three months. At that point, he plateaued and didn't lose much more. I lost about 12 pounds in the first two weeks, plateaued, and then lost another 12 pounds within the next four months. I lost 24 pounds total. I went from 144 pounds down to 120 pounds. I kept it off until just after Thanksgiving & Christmas 2004, around which time I gained about 5 pounds back. So, now I'm trying to get back on the low-carb diet to lose the weight I found. :-)

Dave found out he has high cholesterol last summer, so he has had to eat low fat, low cholesterol food. He usually eats nonfat, and he isn't really worrying about carbs. After all, what could he eat - cardboard? LOL... Anyway, I don't think he has lost weight from that, though, but he hasn't been back to the doctor yet to find out about his cholesterol yet. I hope it's going down.

I'm wishing all of you the best in health and happiness!! Love, Starla
