LowCarbCompatible.com™

I have kept a daily record of my food and exercise choices since I began the Carbohydrate Addict's Lifespan Program (CALP) on March 3, 2008.

I had been posting my menus and exercises on my support groups but have been unable to keep them updated since I have not had much access to the Internet lately.

I really enjoy my support groups but have decided to make LowCarbCompatible my first priority since the time I get to spend on my computer will continue to be limited for awhile.

I will make daily entries into my journal and post them whenever I can. I have decided to include my entries from the beginning but will be working backwards since there are several months to post.

I have been dealing with health problems with my oldest daughter since December, 2007. My grandmother was diagnosed with Liver Cancer in April and was given six months to live. My grandmother lives with my folks and my mother has been on oxygen for several years. My mother has been caring for my grandmother and has needed full time assistance the last couple of weeks. I live a couple of hours away from my folks so I have been staying over so I could help out.

The only reason I am home right now is my youngest son, who is 18, had a tonsillectomy yesterday and needs full time care for the next few days.

I will be returning to my folks house as soon as I can and will be staying as long as I am needed.

I have decided that CALP is my life long plan for a healthy, happier me. CALP is the only way I can eat and still remain in control and satisfied with my food choices. I will not allow the stress of everyday life to interfere with my program and will make every effort to continue my exercise program as scheduled.
