Glad to see you are finally seeing changes!! Just keep in mind that when you eliminate your carbs you can and will rebound when you re-introduce them into your diet! So be careful...
Best bet is to go low carb or to cycle your carbs... Lyle McDonald has some great info on cycling carbs.. ya just need to tweek ratios etc..

Good luck!!!
Super

Excellent!

If I might offer one piece of advice.....throw out the scale!!!! It'll mess with your head. Go by feel and I'm glad to hear you're feeling well.

thanxx , i think i have to come to grips with my weight i always go from 150 to 160 depending on the food exercise etc... i think i am trying always to get down to that before i was pregnant weight and well i would be a rack of bones lol if i were there now..lol , but i know what you mean about cycle, it drives me mad not to have some carbs so a cpl days out of the week i do eat norm that would be cheating for me i guess , but i could see what you mean about watching eatin again and gaining back, wouldnt want that to happen.....
