    Hi everyone! Sorry I've not been posting here lately. Life got pretty busy again & I'm doing my best to keep up with my friends & a challenge I'm in. I've finally gotten out of the 300's & am rapidly approaching the halfway point!!

    Hi everyone! Hope everyone is doing well. I've been doing a challenge to lose 20 pounds. Thus far, I've lot about seven. I'll take it, though! My first goal is to get out of the 160s. I have about two and a half pounds to go. Thinking positively, and I hope you are, too:)

    Interesting. I didn't know that if you were pre diabetic that they'd put you on metformin. I'm following a low carb, high fat diet, losing weight weekly, and am keeping my number's under 100 most days. The one day I indulged in higher carb food, my bs shot up. I'm actually amazed at the difference the diet makes. And it makes me wonder how long I went undiagnosed, or was pre diabetic.

    Hi all,
    Hope everyone is enjoying the change of season. I'm just logging my progress:

    Start: 170
    Goal: 120 (by October 2016)
    Current: 156

    I got derailed in January, but I finally seem to have the scale moving in the right direction. I keep my calories at 1200 and my carbs around 100 most days. I miss eating whatever I want, but it is nice to see progress. My short term goal is 155, so I'm almost there!

    Hi Tuffgirl19 - Don't know if this group resurfaced somewhere else. The weight form is still active, though, at the following link:

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vEu6tEEJRW7gtCZ52L8gRqTV3EB2OBHpKJHZ9N6mf9U/edit?pli=1#gid=0[/quote]

    Many people are still using this google form to track their monthly weight. Good luck with your goals!
