I started a low carb diet four weeks ago and I have already lost 12 pounds. I weight myself a few days ago and I wouldn't be surprised if I lost another thus far. I have 30 pounds to lose.

I have had very minor busts in the diet, one night eating a slice of cheesecake driven by unbearable anxiety, another night with wine that had much more carbs than I thought. I have also gone at the peanuts perhaps more than I should and one night ate Salisbury Steak because I was at my BF's Parent's house and that is what his mother served. I have also drank a lot of alcohol in small quantities on a lot of the days that I have been on the diet. Alcohol pauses the fat burning process, so I imagine it's holding me back slightly, but I have been successful so far!
