I knew that i had to do something when my fat clothes did not fit anymore. I refused to by a larger size! I has tried low fat and almost every other diet out there. I find LC easy to stick with even though I have only lost 12lbs in 2 1/2 months. I no longer crave sweets and feel better overall. Thanksgiving should be a challenge, Thursday at my little sisters, Fri at my Mom's, and Sat at my older sisters and I am the only one on a diet. Good luck to everyone over the holiday.
