Traveling LowCarbly
I have set out on a journey - a weight journey.
In July 2006 my weight was 278 pounds and I was reading an article in a newspaper saying that the only working solution for people with that magnitude of obesity was gastric surgery..
I could not accept the idea that I was helpless, that my only hope for the future was to have gastric surgery so I decided right there and then that I was going to do it by myself, my way, that I was not a helpless victim but rather had the possibility to shape my own future even in the respect of health and weight management.
I started with a traditional approach to lose weight, less fat, smaller servings of everything, focus on fibre and water… It worked fine right from the start, after a week or so I had lost around 4 pounds.
Having set out on this journey I started to surf the net and read books to obtain information about weight management and nutrition. One of the first books I encountered was “Ät dig ner i vikt” (Eat and lose weight) by Sten Sture Skaldeman, a Swedish gentleman who had himself lost 140+ pounds by NOT avoiding fatty foods but cutting carbs to a very small amount. This concept attracted me partly because I don´t mind going against traditional and sometimes prejudiced opinions and advice, I decided to definitely give it a go!
The following two weeks I lost another 5 pounds so it obviously didn´t harm the weight loss in a short perspective to eat fat… In september 2006 I started my first blog “fetsmart” (fat smart in English, as in “street smart” or rather “very smart” since “fet” in “modern”(?) Swedish is an intensifier) with the intention to promote my own weight loss as well as LowCarb eating in general. My original idea was to lose 37 Kg (82 pounds) in 370 days, a period of time which by chance (hmm…) happend to be ending on my fiftieth birthday… in July 2007.
And here I am almost a year after that original perod of time has elapsed and I still haven’t reached my goal… Well I don’t consider that as a major failiure since I have gained(!) a lot in terms of experience and perhaps even knowledge in the field of nutrition and weight loss while trying… 
My southbound journey is perhaps best summarized in the graph below. It’s been a bit slow after the initial downhill… In order to achieve a steeper slope in months to come I have signed up for “Göteborgsvarvet” Gothenburg Half Marathon taking place May 16th next year.
Hopefully this blog will be helpful in countdown to… running!

Online shopping provides consumers with many benefits. Many people have discovered the advantages of online shopping and hence, prefer to use this mode of shopping to buy their goods. This explains why there is an increasing number of people using online shopping. At times, besides being able to obtain their goods faster through shopping online, they can get their goods at prices lower than those offered by physical retail stores.
