Hi, Joe! :)

A few of us are still active here.
I try to check in once a day, when I can.
I suspect it's because this lifestyle is very easy to maintain after we're "reprogrammed" out of the false "calories make fat" philosophy, and have replaced our old high carb favorites with healthy low carb substitutes.

I'm glad to hear your restarting your FTS lifestyle.
Rereading the book is very helpful in that.

Let us know if any questions or concerns come up that you need help with.

Hi Joe,  good to know you back *on the wagon* so to speak.

You know we are here to support you and anyone else needing it.

Some people say it's harder each time you start up, but I actually think it gets a little
easier because you know what to do and with each time your mind and taste buds are
reprogrammed a bit more. 

Good 'eating'  :D and hope to touch base often.

Hi, Joe. :)

You need to renew your commitment everyday.
But don't feel bad. Many of us must do the same.
Besides that, you know what to do.

FTS will work, if you work it... And the work is easy IF you follow to the letter.
Reread the book, then look around at our recipes here.
Then, come up with a few recipes to replace the things that are tripping you up.

Hi Joe, I agree with Tony. That is good start with meat. I would add low carb veggies, black soy beans, low carb tortillas. There are great recipes on here. Some super easy.
So glad you are highlighting your book!
