Hi All, My name is Dawn & I've been using MFP for the last week and I love it! I have recently been diagnosed as being pre-diabetic. That was probably one of the best things to ever happen to me. Its given me the kick in the butt i've been needing to get healthy. I discussed my diet with my doctors and we have decided I will follow the South Beach Diet. I have over 100 lbs to lose and so far so good. I've lost 7 lbs & 6.75 inches my first week! I'm focused & I'm hoping to meet some great people here, so we can support each other on our weight loss journey!

I've got a total of 90lbs to lose, and am also in danger of being pre-diabetic. I just had my glucose resistance test a couple of days ago. I've been here for almost a week, and I love it so far. I've lost 7 lbs and I feel great. I have a ton more energy and I'm not starving hungry all the time.0
