Wow, it's great to get such quick responses!

Thanks so much for your encouraging words.

One of the hardest things for me to deal with is knowing I can do this, I did it so easily before, but now I have some roadblocks. The biggest problem is living with a new husband who DOES NOT agree with low carb diets. I met him at my lowest weight, and gained most of it back over the 3 years we've been together. (He has nerve complaining--he weighs 300 lbs himself!) The other thing is no matter what everyone says, I do NOT think it is cheap to buy low carb foods. My family is on a VERY limited budget (as in, trying to avoid foreclosure). It is very difficult to buy fresh foods and not end up wasting them. And I am on the go so much, I need easy foods I can just grab and go. None of that stuff is low carb except, what, a hard boiled egg? LOL

Thanks again!
