I have been away from low carb a couple years, buying a house, getting fat, and slowly dying inside because of it. And recently planning a wedding for May 2016 and a honeymoon in Mexico.

It's time to get healthy again and not race down the same path as my mom did, with diabetes, blindness, renal failure, and every other diabetic complication you can name. (I am not diabetic, YET!)

I belong to another low carb forum, but find the moderation of almost everything to be ridiculous. You cannot have a conversation about products or social media without receiving an email the next day to say it has been edited. So, I am searching for a new low carb home.

I'd like to have a thread to post our struggles and successes, and somewhere I can check in every day and say hey, eh! (I've never sad eh in my entire life in a sentence out loud!)

So, post your daily updates, random thoughts, Canadian humour, and anything else your Canuck heart desires. Go!
