Congrats Mary, I have high blood sugar and was advised to cut out sweets. I haven't been back to the dr.s yet to find out how much it has gone down, but I am anxious to find out. My husband has diabetes and high blood pressure, bad knees, among other things. He has lost 20 pounds and his knees feel better already, so that alone has encouraged him to keep going, although he isn't as strict about it as I am, but he's trying. Keep up the good work. Peg
