Welcome. We hope you find the information here helpful. 2011 was a lot of work trying to get the pounds off. And I did! I went from 220 on January 1, 2011 was down to 156 January 3, 2012. 2012 I was down to 145 in May. But after vacations and deaths and hurricanes and holidays I was back up to 170 on January 1, 2012. Ah, well. It happens.
So now it's back on the wagon. The low-carb wagon of course. 2012 was, if nothing else, a year of learning. I read a lot. Listened to low carb interviews and pod-casts. I've left low-carb junk food behind and have started embracing "real food". Let's face it, substitutes are a crutch, one I don't need any more. I can walk this road on my own now.
It's paying off. I'm down 9 pounds since January 1 and will keep fighting to become healthier. It's going to be difficult. I've yo-yo dieted all my life so my metabolism is really low, but I'm determined.
Hoping to get more shows out in 2013. I've learned a lot in 2102.My name is Jes and I'm a low-carber. My husband Tom and our two sons are definitely not. Can I stay low carb while surrounded by their carb laden goodies? You bet! And in 2013 I'm going to keep up the fight.
As you can see, I'm back in the game.Check out our recipes section. Most of the recipes have instructional videos as well.
