Hey everyone right now there are three of us ladies where I work that are on diets. All three differant. But mine is the only one that doesn't seem like a diet   I'm loving mine, cant say the same for them. I can hardly wait for my first weigh in. Right now everybody at work LOVES frozen grapes. LOL

Hi Charlotte, isn't it wonderful that you can eat and eat all the wonderful LDL foods while the poor other two ladies are probably starving. Hopefully they will join you soon!

All the best!

Frozen grapes are the best I  could not believe how sweet they were!

Charlotte...I have been on Lets Do Lunch for 2 years in May...I have reached my goal and am maintaining...I went from a size 8 to a size 2-4.Just be patient and do not weigh every week when you first start unless you have a lot to lose. Now I weigh everyday and journal what I eat.You will read a lot of opinions on here,but stick to what works for your body. I found that if I eat popcorn and Corn Thins it would stall my weight loss.If I just ate Corn Thins I would lose. You can do it!!!!!!

CK it is wonderful to be able to eat this way. And I do hope to have these girls jump on in to LDL. Cindy I never dreamed i would ever be eating grapes at all,  not to mention frozen ones   preachwife I'm encouraged by your story. I just wish I was a size 8. Dont worry I'm not going to weigh ever week. I promised myself I would not get on the scales for a whole month. Now I cant say that is has been easy, but I hanging in there.
THANKS A LOT YOU GUYS YALL ARE ALL A BLESSING TO ME!
                                                                  Till next time,

Good for you Charlotte,
Your friends will soon tire of their Diet and when they start gaining again and see that you are healthier and still loosing and are happy doing it, they will be ready to jump on board the train to skinnytown.

They will join you soon when they see you are not suffering through another diet program but eating until full wonderful satisfying food.
I got a phone call from a friend yesterday that was promoting the drops under the tongue and 500 cal.  She and others are finding they can't stick to such
a schedule and she was questioning about LDL again.

Charlotte, keep up the LDL and before you know it others will be asking you what you are doing and really wanting the details.  Last weekend I saw someone that I hadn't seen for several months.  They are on WW and before didn't want to hear very much about what I was doing.  Well, that changed!  They couldn't believe my weight loss, how great I am feeling now, loving what I am eating and most importantly how much smaller I am now than I was. Throughout our time together, they kept saying "Oh my gosh, look how much smaller you are! What exactly did you say you are doing?"    It was very difficult to contain my joy!  And I never thought I would be hearing this said about me!  Woo Hoo!  It will happen to you too, give it a little time. 

HEY everyone yall are all so encourageing. I forgot to mention that I have a sister n law that just started WW a couple of wks. ago. I forgot about that one. I cant wait to see how all this turns out. Yall all have such great storys and information to share. Cant wait for the 17th to get here so I can weigh. I will try to post often ,but I'm in the process of painting a bedroom and changeing things around so my computer might be down a few days. Love to ALL.

Charlotte, Welcome to the best way of eating.  I went from 18 to 6 and 8.  I have never felt deprived, and never hungry.  As Roger said in the red book, if you stay hungry, something is wrong.  EAT and enjoy.  It has been almost two wonderful years for me.  I have maintained a year--no suffering.    JF

Hey Ladies, Linda, Wendy, Mylife, and Joyfriend,
          I know you ladies are right it want be long before these ladies I work with will tire of there way of eating. As a matter of fact one broke down today and bought not one but two candy bars from the vending machine. LOL!     Sorry I dont mean to laugh, but been there done that. Before LDL I would have done the same thing ONLY TEN TIMES WORSE! That would have just set me off on a feeding frenzzzzzzy. This is the first diet that I have been on to where things like candy have'nt bothered me. As a matter of fact I gave my candy stash away. I know shocking. Guess I better not brag to much I still have to weigh in on the 17th. You ladies have a good night.
