Default losing 30

In July of 2006 I weighed 223 pounds my Insulin was out of control, I was pre-diabetic.
After learning of the Paleolithic diet (no refined carbs) I decided to give it a try, for my health. I have seen too many of my family member die of diabetes and I was not going to let that happen to me. At first I though it would be hard cutting out all the foods I loved such as pasta, rice, potatoes and bread, not to mention colas. I threw everything out of my cupboards and went shopping. I bought mainly veggies and meat, a small amount of fruit and dairy and I was going home. After seeing what all I could eat and how healthy it was I really wasn’t hard at all to stick with this diet. Yes I cheat sometimes, but when you see the benefits of this diet you can’t resist sticking to it. I guarantee this diet will be with me for life. And speaking of life, my health has improved greatly. My insulin is down over half in just a couple months! And not only that I have lost 30 pounds in 3 months! That’s 6 inches that melted off my waist alone! I went from a size 3x to large and 24 to 16. Not to mention how tone my muscles are by eating protein and not carbs. I am sexy and fit now and never even exercised once, that’s the truth. I know it really sounds too good to be true but try it. I have been over 200 pounds for 6 years and now I am down to 190, it works, it really works! If it can do all this for me it will work for anybody. Including my hubby who has lost 20 pounds in half the time it took me!
Get this diet and stick with it, It really works!
