Feel like shouting from the roof top

Postby On The Road » Tue Dec 16, 2014 12:26 pm

Have told my story before, but will do a quick recap

Started around the first week of November, had weight loss surgery scheduled for Dec 22nd but have cancelled that.
Starting weight 383, blood sugar at least 250 with meds.

All of my test strips expired and for the last two weeks I have been working on getting new ones and getting my meter up to date.

Today was the day that it all came together and I did a fasting test this morning.

Drum roll please,

159 with NO MEDS, weight 349

Have not been 100% compliant, have been succumbing to the pressures of family over the weekends, but during the week I am rite in line. Working on the weekends slowly.

Kind of picked a stupid time of year to change my eating.

Feel like shouting, best results I have ever had from any "diet" on both the weight and blood sugar.

Have a way to go on both, but going the rite direction for sure.

Congratulations!

The McDougall diet is the real deal. Keep it up and you will do great.

Ask questions. I recommend searching Jeff Novick's forum.

Look at the Food and Recipes forum several times a week.

Congrats again.

You've got this!
