New from Eureka, CA. On Syndrome X diet.

A friend who lost a lot of weight and is looking great recommended this site to me.

I'm looking for friends who can keep me on track losing weight. I weighed 281 pounds 38 days ago, and I'm down to 270 now.

I'm on the Syndrome X diet, which aims to control insulin production so as to avoid heart attacks and diabetes. It is 15% protein, 40% fat, 45% carbs, and less than 10% bad fat. My doctor also said to keep salt under 1 gram a day and less than 60 carbs per meal.

I am a semi-retired photographer, and have decided to make this latest effort a very high priority (in contrast to the last zillion diet efforts).
