I just want to welcome you and encourage you to keep on posting. A journal is a good thing since you can keep all of your posts and your "history" in one convenient place.

I can identify with some of your problems. As a Type II diabetic, I have had to give up sugar. It was a huge struggle until I found this Way of Eating. The cravings went away really quite quickly--I just don't remember how long. Although I still deal with cravings and emotional eating, the cravings now are directed at things like nuts and cheese. My blood sugar has been excellent and that has helped me in many ways--emotionally and physically.

Please stick around. There are so many knowledgeable and helpful people here. I don't have much knowledge, myself, but can say that LS is working for me beautifully and in many unexpected ways as well.

Take good care!

Natalie
