I hail from Port Orchard.We are an hours ferry ride across the sound from Seattle. We have LC products mostly at Fred Meyers, and Albertsons. In Belfair which is maybe 10 miles from here we have a fellow low carber that dedicates half her store to low carb products. If I need a specialty product I can usually get it there. I'm not real comfortable travelling to Tacoma because I hate the Narrows Bridge. I remember the time DH and I made a cross country trip from Michigan to home, the only traffic jam we encountered was on highway 16 near the bridge. I do go to Marlenes occassionally, but try to get most of my stuff locally. There are alot of us in Washington State that follow low carbing. That is gratifying to see. Judy

Hi all,
I'm fairly new here. I live in Lynden, WA (lived here all of my 44 years!) just north of Bellingham, just south of Canada. I know we have lots of places to get LC stuff, but I haven't really gotten into it that much. I'm still on induction, and not sure if I'm even losing yet, so trying those goodies is not for me! Anyone else freezing their BUNS off right now with the arctic blast we're having?

Not only am I freezing my buns off(it hit 13 degrees in Seattle last night),
but I feel colder since I lost my 50 lbs...don't have the bodyfat insulation any more.

Yes, I am in Moses Lake right now at -15 below. I've never been in such cold weather. However, I'll take the feeling colder over the weight

Just wanted to say hello from tacoma. i just started the low carb diet and i have bought my staples from fred meyers and cash and carry.

What is a DH/dh?

HELLO WASHINGTONIANS!!!!!

raised in redmond, where my mother and brother are currently lc'ing it in style. im in bellingham right now...tough to find good cheap lc food when yr on foot all the time! so instead i buy small quantities of expensive lc and walk a lot...i guess thats a good thing huh???

any other locals???

...oh! has any seattleites tried the new low carb restaurant????

My husband and I have relocated from Austin, TX. We are new to the area and hubby we have both been doing the LC thing for a while. We started with a nutritionalist and do a modified South Beach diet. The nutritionalist recommend low carb high fiber foods.

Also, were looking for people in the Port Townsend area as we are interested in relocating to that region in the next year. Any info would be appreciated.

Hi Tracy, I just moved to Issaquah and I LOVE IT! So many places to walk, lots of hills, trails, always see people outside hitting the pavement, walking, running, biking up these huge hills. SO much better than where I was living (Lynnwood), just have to get used to Banana SLUGS!!!!!

I'm near Lakemont Blvd & I walk from my house (all uphill) to Lakemont, down the hill to Starbucks on Lakemont, have coffee & read the paper on Saturdays, walk back UP the hill and down back to my house. It's about 4 miles alltogether. Great workout and I have the blisters to prove it!

We should meet up one day at Starbucks for coffee

Where is the low carb resturant?

I am in Bellingham Washington where it always rains and seldom shines : (

Hello everyone! I live in Renton...well usually. Right now Im going to school at WWU in Bellingham but I frequently come home on weekends. Maybe I will see some of you around especially if you hit the Starbucks!
