Hip Hip Hooray!

I finally found a diet that works for ME!!!

Back at the end of September, some friends and I had free tickets to the "What a Woman Wants" show at the South Towne Expo Center.  We decided to go just for kicks AND because we're cheap when it comes to events. ( F-R-double E is best.)

As we began walking down the very first aisle, one booth stood out to me.  They had a banner proclaiming to have the dieting answers for people with Syndrome X (insulin resistance).  Of course, it did its job and peaked my interest.  Reeled me right on in - hook, line and sinker.

Curious, I waited for my chance to find out more.

Needless to say, I made an appointment for the following week and started the diet on October 1st.  In the 2 months that have passed since then, I have dropped 25.2 pounds.

I just had an appointment with my Endocrinologist today and she was beyond thrilled.

The first couple of weeks were incredibly hard, but I managed to get through it.  I've had to give up sugar and a vast majority of carbs, but it has truly been worth it.

I wanted to post about it earlier, but I decided to surprise my parents at Thanksgiving.  Now that the cat is out of the bag, I can do regular updates on my blog.

Happy Day!
