Tina Kaye's Story - www.carbsmart.com/ tinakaye.html

www.3fatchicks.com (too many ads)
(3fatchicks is not technically a low-carb-exclusive site.
It is really a very information-dense support site for
people who need to lose weight -- but it has a lot of low-carb info.
The 3 women who started it do not seem to have any agenda and
are not pushing any particular program. They seem to beat
the bushes for any responsible information on anything that
works for weight loss.
Since they get most of their information from mainstream sources,
like the 'Physicians Desk Reference' and www.WebMD.com, you
will not find cutting-edge stuff here, but it is generally
reliable and honest.
The site features decent summaries of many low-carb diets,
as well as low-fat diets. The site also provides latest
health news, news archives, a low-fat recipe section
and a low-carb recipe section, a plus-size
shop, online journals, and a good web links section, with
especially good links in the area of obesity.
There are also diet tools, such as a BMI [= Body Mass Index]
calculator, and a calculator for calories burned by
walking various distances at various intensities. It also
has forums where readers can post questions, comments, and tips.)
