Wow, it is almost 2010. For the last 2-3 years of my life I have been searching and battling for a way to lose excess weight and maintain the loss with ease, without being deprived. Through my reading and research (and I have read many many diet/nutrition books) I have come to believe in controlled carbohydrate living. I don't believe anyone but God could change my mind about the benefits of a low-carb lifestyle. I am not afraid of fat, saturated fat, or living without grains and starches.

The problem is that I have a hard time being consistent. I can start a plan and follow it for a few weeks and then I fade. So, I've had to change my attitude.
