With over 15 computers running in our house, a husband with over 500 hard drives, and being into HTML as an amateur since 1997, I think I qualify as a geek. I lost and kept off 45 pounds with a low carb lifestyle and blog about it at Kudos For Low Carb. Count me in if you need a guest blogger.

I am a diabetic. Atkins has helped me to lose weight and stabilize my blood sugar. The highs are down and the lows are up. I had my tonsils out, so I will be back on in a couple of weeks. One thing that helped me was reading Atkins New Diet Revolution. Chapters 5 and 6 describe exactly the way I gained, my difficulties with losing, and my finally developing diabetes. I have 2 other geek friends that have lost weight with Atkins. Sounds like there are a lot more of us.

I've been on a low carb diet for over 2 years. Started at 275, down to 235, up to 250, about to head back down. Not ideal, but beats anything else. Not cheating too much is the secret. But definitely cheat at least once a month or ya feel totally bummed. And by cheating I mean one of everything on the table that your not supposed to eat most of the time.

But to what end? The logical extension of LCG theory is the 'Thin Geek': defined as a stringy creature with an unnerving sense of excitement around technology. Not that I'm suggesting 'Geekus Thinilogicous' is a species we should fear, just that those piously pondering a truly low carb existence need to be aware of where they are heading.

I'd definitely love to see such a site. As it is, the low carber forums (forum.lowcarber.org) are a great place for information. And for an amazing, inspiring story (not a geek, but still), check out Dan's story and pictures: http://www.lowcarb.ca/stories/story015.html

Low carb dieting definitely works!! I have been on the Atkins diet for the last 12 months and I have already lost 105 pounds. I've still got more to lose, but I'll get there!! :-)
