I weighed yesterday and am still at 248,why I dint know cause I have enjoyed the holliday food even tho I have tryed not to over do.Last year I lost another 40 pounds so hopefully by the end of 2012 I can lose way more than that,I was hopeing to lose 50 or so but really didnt start loseing untill I found out about being diabetic and went on the lo carb food plan,I have had ups and downs with loseing weight on this diet,one reason is I can go for a while just fine then I need to eat real food so it took a while to figure out how to do that and not blow my count thrue the roof.Now we have gotten into winter and my mind says I need diffrent food to eat wich means more carbs.I konow this is someting that is set in the DNA of cave men to store carbs as much as possable for servival,I have been doing fairly well trying to reset that in my mind..just need to keep at it,one thing that had helped is keeping plenty of free carb crunchy foods on hand like celery,cucumber slices,cherry tomatoes and lots of fresh lettus.I make a spicy vigniger dip wich is like a thick dressing so I eithe am useing it as a dip or salad dressing and peminto cheese helps.I have found there is no right or wrong with this diabetic thing as its about finding what works.
