Hello

Hello Myfitnesspal world, I am a newcomer to the site. Started using it this week in conjunction with the Diabetes Dtour Diet. Let me preface all of this by introducing myself. My name is Lynn, I am a 34 year old wife, and mother of two from New Jersey. I am a Financial Controller by trade, but my weight has gotten out of control. How ironic, I have always been a thin girl, then I got pregnant with my first child, put on 80 pounds, and the gestational diabetes kicked in. The cycle continued with my second child, even though I gained only 13 lbs, I still hadnt taken off all the weight from the first. Long to short, I was up and down, last spring I lost around 30 pounds from exercising and dieting alone. 15 of those 30 crept back up. I am looking to loose the 15 and an additional 15, in hopes to be taken off of insulin and put on oral meds or no meds at all. I started the Diabetes Dtour Diet, and have been feeling great, so far, so good. I have been tracking my food intake and exercise on here, and am looking forward to the progress. So if anyone is out there with a similar story, or not, please reply, I would love encouragement, success stories, feedback, etc... Thanks!!!
