Hello,
A little about myself. My doctor put me on a low carb diet the 2nd week of April this year. I started out at 234lbs and I am now at 190lbs. I hope to get down to 140-150lbs. I was put on the diet because of medical reasons, after my second birth I had problems with my insulin. I have what they call insulin resistance. I tried adkins but since my doctor said I should only have 60gms a day, I went to that. It was too hard with hardly any carbs. I am also on Metformin (sp??) for my insulin. Does anyone else have this problem too? I would also like any encouragement. My husband helps there but it is nice to have it from an outside source too.
