Hi All

My name is Penny, I am 37, married and have 4 kids of all different age

groups. I am diabetic and my Dr asked if I wanted to try this diet. I can

not, for some reason, figure out the ADA diet and have a lot of trouble

following it. This is my 4th week on Atkins and it is the easiest diet I have

ever been on!! I needed to loose 43 when I started and now I have lost 11. 7

of those were in the first 2 weeks. I sure wish I would loose faster, but at

least there is some progress. My Blood sugar levels have come down alot, on

the first day of Atkins my BG was 203, yesterday was 103. Thats the best they

have been since before I had my baby 9 months ago!! On the LF diets I always

stayed the same no matter how many calories I didn't eat. I love sitting here

reading everyones posts, I save all the recipes and try to remember all the

idea that are posted! I am a little worried about the weekend coming up, My

son (7) is ring bearer in a wedding and They are having a huge reception. I

am going to try to keep to thisWOE but I know I will probably stray!! I will

just have to get right back on Induction when I get back Sunday! Well, Thanks

for letting me introduce myself!! Also, could someone please repost the AOL

chatrooms and times that you meet, I must have come too late for that.

Thanks!

Penny
