In a little less than 2 weeks on a totally no-carb weight loss program (I refuse to call it a diet!) I’ve lost 10 pounds, thank God.

In a combination of prayer, working out a little more, and eliminating carbohydrates as much as possible, I have been able to lose those extra pounds that have been haunting me.

I don’t call it a diet, per se, as I’m not on a restrictive diet. I believe that “diet” is what you CAN eat, not what you can’t.

I’ve researched a lot of different approaches and programs. I am eating mostly vegetables, low fat meats (lots of fish) and low-fat dairy in the form of cheese, yogurt and cottage cheese.

I’ll share some recipes I’ve come up with in the next few days.

Some of you have joined me. How are you doing? What challenges a you facing? Please comment below.
