no, I'm not.

I have PCOS - Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrom and we are basically undiagnosed diabetics. We don't handle carbs well. We tend to have weight problems because our bodies convert starches into sugar and then stores it. So even tho I'm not labeled diabetic (the test come out negative every time) I try to follow a low carb, diabetic diet.

As a result, I've lost 30 pounds since January. It's slow... but I am. Need to get off the cokes I've been drinking again... lol!

WOW great! I have 3 pregnancies to thank for some extra weight. Health was beginning to be an issue. So I started South beach in June and am down 15+ pounds. It is slow going but I can feel the difference. And I can so relate to the pop thing...I have found 1 diet I can actually enjoy...Diet Dr. Pepper.
Good Lucj and I am looking forward to trying this recipe!
