Cool Re: Yippee, I found the Diabetic board!

Hi there! I just had to respond to your post for many reasons...the first being that you have a 99 Nascar icon next to your name! My 10 year old son LOVES Carl Edwards! He looked and said that your pic is Carl's Aflac car...cool!

I have Diabetes Type I for more than 30 years. I have been on an insulin pump for 14 years.

I have been on this diet for 4 weeks now and have only lost 3 lbs. total. My ketone sticks have been moderate, so I don't understand...I've heard that insulin keeps the weight on. What has been your experience?

My blood sugars are not always within range, even with the no-lo carb induction never-ending phase I'm in. I am seeing my endocrinologist next week so I will ask how it's possible to be 180 2 hours after only bacon and eggs for breakfast! Frustrating!

Anyway, it's so nice to "meet" you and I look forward to getting to know you better!

Erin
