Hi there...I am a new girl. I was so glad to find this site and hopefully some support. I am really bummed. About a month ago my Endocrinologist put me on a low carb high protein diet. My insulin is not working well and I am being tested for pituitary gland problems. I have gained around 25 lbs. this last year...15 in the past 3 months which brings my grand total up to 195 lbs. This has put a strain on me, my health,my marriage (my husband is a fitness junkie and doesn't understand to well) and my whole life.
My problem is that my son has diabetes and my husband (already very fit) need carbohydrates in thier diet. I need some low budget and easy protein meals to fix myself. And I need the willpower to not eat those wonderful pastas and breads that I crave SOOOO much especially when it's been a bad day. How awsome are crackers?! I LOVE them...I have got to do this I know!!! I just wish I could see over this seemingly huge mountain I have in front of me. It just seems soooo overwhelming to even start right now. MAN...am I whining...but I kinda feel better already. ANY advice right now would be great...THANKS!
