I'm on a low carb diet waiting to get banded, and today I marked 20 pounds lost, and in the TWO's!!!! Having to be accountable during the supervised diet really helps. I was very pleased with myself yesterday. I had a terrible day at work, but stuck to the diet. Normallly, I would treat myself to something very bad for me, because I was so upset, tired and frustrated. On the drive home I just keep telling myself, I needed to do what was best for my health, and eating poorly would not fix the problem.

Good for you Karen. I wish my resolve was as good as yours!

Congratulations, Karen. Hang in there!
