I am an American woman, married to a Swede. I moved to Sweden (Dalsland) January 2000, where I work as a computer technician. My husband says I'm addicted to knitting.

I started with LCHF in November 2008 at the request of my husband. Long story short, I've been obese all of my adult life, diagnosed with arthritis in both knees Spring 2008, decided that something must be done, too young for knee-replacement surgery, dieting didn't work, husband begged me to try LCHF before persuing surgery to put a band around my stomach, very happy that I chose LCHF and water aerobics instead of surgery. 16 kg and counting.
