Low Carbing and Me
Well this is my first post and I will start by telling a little about myself. My name is Donna Ingram I live in North Carolina, I am single and 46 yrs young. I have 2 children (girls) ages 23 and 19. The 23 yr old (Rachel) is in nursing school and has just completed her 3rd semester of 5 to graduate. The 19 yr old (Ashlee) is working full time as a Phlebotomist and is going to school part time. I am very proud of both of them. My reason for this blog is I believe in the low carb lifestyle not only for permanent weight loss but for controlling diabetes. I have been on this diet since January 5th 08 and have lost 25lbs. I have not felt deprived nor have I starved. I have modified this diet in a way that the people who I have put on it and coached are able to follow and consider it a lifestyle rather than a diet. My weight loss has been gradual but steady. I want to lose about 10-15 more pounds and since this is not a diet but a new way of life for me I know the last 10-15 lbs will come off eventually so I don’t worry about it. I have a lot of recipes and tips on how to stay on this program and I want to share them with everyone who wants to listen. I have a good story to tell about my Dad I will write it in my next post…..to be continued! Visit my Dad’s story at: http://carbingfordiabetics.wordpress.com/ .
