Hey Didn't realize TN was on the LC map. Glad to know it! I'm from Greenfield That's between Martin Tn and JacksonTn . Love to e-ya bout the LCD. This is my second time on it . It worked great the first time I don't know why I just quit. But I'm ready to go again. I want to lose 20-25 lbs. this time.
Love to talk to ya . Good Luck to all We ARE worth it!!!!

I'm in Indiana myself, but I have family in Celina, TN. My dad was born and raised there.

Hey Flo Jo
Not real sure where Celina is located! Is that middle TN ? Do you visit TN often?

Are you doing the carb addicts or Low carbs? I wanted to do the carb addicts for a change but could not find enough infor to convince me to switch. If you could please let me know how its going!

Thanks

Celina is located in north central TN just about 15 miles inside the line from KY. Dale Hollow Dam (which my grandpa helped build) is located there.

I started with CAD because a friend of mine was doing it several years ago. I thought "Hey, if I can lose weight and still eat cake if I want to, I'm in!" But I was not able to find the answers to some of my questions in the book. I found this site and learned from senior members that the CALP book had more information (really just an updated version of CAD). So I guess really I'm a CALPER.

I like this WOE because I have not had to give up ANYTHING I like. I only need to watch WHEN I eat it. Also, I don't have to keep track of numbers of anything (total carbs, etc.) like with Atkins. From the posts I've read on Atkins, the first few weeks of weight loss is much quicker than CAD (or CALP), but, I would much rather lose it slowly and surely than quickly again and worry about a quick re-gain in the future. I did become discouraged the first few weeks because of the slow loss of weight, but the "seniors" helped me understand that it was normal.

Hope this helped!!!!!!!!

Hello again
If you don't mind could you e-mail me ~gakak9691~yahoo.com. I would like to ask more questions about the CAD. Where do you go to talk on this forum about CAD. How long have you been on CAD. I wonder if changeing directions now could be less benifical to my body.((( Just to name a few questions.))))
I hope to hear from you soon. I'm not sure what I want but I do want the pounds off. Last time I did the LCD I walked all the time. We have moved and I don't get to walk like I did. Do you excersise alot?

Thanks for all your help!
Have a great Day!

I've been trying to e-mail you......mailer demon keeps sending a message saying your address is invalid. Would be more than willing to chat with you about CAD and CALP. Even though I'm a little discouraged about the slow down of weight loss! Just gotta hang in and wait for it to start coming off again.
Flo

I'm so sorry.....I have brain malfunction occasionally. My address is gakak9196~yahoo.com I'm trying to study up for a final and I guess my brain is overloaded sorry bout that. Try that and see if that works. I'm at a stand still with LCD for 4 days now. So I still would like to hear from you. Thanks

Hey
I guess this proves I'm unstable!!!! I have to give you another e mail address. It seems as yahoo is starting some thing new and now you have to pay for the service! So I have changed my e-mail address to ggaley~mac.com I can still read my e's from yahoo I just can't reply. So if you have already e mail me ~yahoo I will still read it from there. If you don't mind use the ggaley~mac.com from here on out. Thanks a bunch. Sorry to be so much trouble.

I did ask my husband about Celina and he knows where that is. He works all over Tn except for the most eastern part.

Hope you day was good. Are you on MSM if so we need to talk there if we can get on line the same time.

Bye for now

I'm on AOL, but I have MSN Messenger, so we could instant message each other. I did send an e-mail to your Yahoo address. In case you don't receive it, I was asking about the time zone in your area. We are on Central Time here right now. Will e-mail you again later. Watch for mail from TModel! Talk to you soon.

Howdy fellow Tennesseans!! (...and Alo~ha to Maui!!)

Just wondering if any Tennesseans from this thread are still actively visiting this board. Maui....I'm from Oahu, but I live in middle Tennessee now. Small world, eh? lol

Glad to see so many fellow Tennesseans out there. I've been on and off the LCD since January...I've really gotten serious about it this past month and I've lost 8lbs. When I began my new years resolution I weighed 172lbs. I am as of today, May 23 at 157lbs. . I only lost 1 lb. this past week but I try to not let that get me down. The way I look at it if I only lose 1 lb. week I should be at my goal weight of 140lbs. by Sept. 27.. I really hope it doesn't take that long..I have lost 8lbs in the last 5 wks. Does anybody know any thing about the Russell Stoffers sugar free candy being allowed on the LCD..seems like I read on a thread some time back that we could subtract the malitol and fiber from the Carb count..In that case most of these candies only have 1 to 2 carbs and they are great. I've been eating them when I want something sweet and maybe that's the reason for my weight loss slowing down the past couple of weeks. I also would like to get e-mails from you guys my e-mail address is dianepartin~cafes.net.. Look forward to hearing from ya soon. Good luck to all.

Diane

Hi, hope we can e-mail and possibly meet someday. Dianesp, I will send you an e. I tried before, and it was returned. We are so close.

MunchyP, yes, small world. Where in middle TN are you? I am in Sewanee between Nashville and Chattanooga.

Hey "ya'll"

I am in Cordova, Tn. and I am needing to lose 40lbs. Over the past 2 years I went from 135lbs to 175lbs. I have been lazy and eating crap. I admit it. I need some support! School is about to start back and I work full time at a desk and then have class 3 nights a week for 4 hours at a desk! I don't wanna gain anymore weight!
