Hello and Thank You

[roblef]

Hi all!

I just joined this forum and I have to say I'm impressed by thte number of people, and the quality of information. Great resource!

I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes about 3 months ago, and have been doing Atkins since then. I'm currently in the ongoing wieightloss phase of the plan, and I've lost 30 pounds since January. I exercise daily, and stick to the plan fairly closely. I've been really happy on the plan, but it's still a controversial one. My family and spous still shudder when they see butter and fats in my diet, even with my explanations and the books I've lent them.

So, I'm looking forward to learning more, and sharing this experience with people who are in the same place and on the same page as me.

Thanks!

Rob

Hi Rob,

Congratulations for starting Adkins. I knew so many people who did Adkins because of their diabetes. It is highly recommended by a lot of doctors. So,
I'm glad that you've started the program. It will probably be an important eating change for the rest of your life.

I wish you the best on your journey!

Re: Hello and Thank You

Welcome to the site and congratulations on your success so far. I spent 2 years trying to convince the wellness personnel here @ my work the acceptability of my WOE. At some point, you just have to let them be, and leave your success speak for itself. I am glad you found our Atkineer niche of the 'Net.

Since it has been 3 months have you had your bloodwork redone. Would be nice to see how the numbers have changed to your favor. Post them if you have them. Way to go!
