My Success on LDL

[marysimmons]

Hello everyone...I am new too and excited. But just one question while I await for my book......Why no nuts.

There are SO MANY other great things that you can eat on Let's Do Lunch that will give you your nutrition, that you don't need nuts which are more fattening than the hundreds of other things available to you.  That's why!

When I think of eating nuts I think of portion control again and when I think of lets do lunch I think that I eat till Im full.  I think the biggest problem with nuts is the amount you would be allowed would be sooooooo small it would never satisfy you and could lead to you having to eat to many or you would have to eat something else along with them in order to feel full.  Lets Do Lunch is all about FEELING SATISFIED.  Eating nuts would only make me feel deprived.  Does that make sense to you?

been there...done that......i realized that peanuts are legumes, thought even if they were high in fat, i add olive oil to my popcorn, so what's the difference???.....i bought the roasted ones in the shell..........ate them after i'd eat something else thinking that would work................BIG MISTAKE.............lear n from my experiment......KEEP AWAY...........

Marcy J Thanks for sharing your story. It is a great encouragement to me. I have just started my journey with LDL July 20th and have lost 17#'s I figure I have at least 30 more to loose. It may not sound like much next to 100#'s but when I haven't been able to loose weight and keep it off on any other diet it still can feel like  a long way to go. I am inspired by you! Yeah.  thanks for sharing.

MarcyJ, just like the poster immediately above me, I'm a newbie too, i just
started LDL on March 5th, 2010.  Thanks for sharing your story.  It's only
been a week for me so far, and I'm down 10 pounds, but I've got LOTS and LOTS
more to lose.  Your story is incredible, and it just reaffirms my
belief that this WOE is a Gift from God in Heaven.  I'm hoping and praying that I
can have a similar success story to yours some time down the road, and can in
turn inspire others the same way your story just inspired me.

Take care, and God Bless,
Horkster

Love this thread. An update on me. I have now lost 33#'s and am still loving this woe. I have been kind of stalled at this weight for the last 3 months but Hey, whats to disparage as the food is so good and I am not gaining and I am still eating all I want!
Thanks all for your encouraging posts,
Bobbi
