Just stopping in to say hello. My name is Viki Anderson. I live in Omaha, NE. My friends and mini-support group...Leanne and Sara nudged me here to check out all the great support they found here.
I was recently diagnosed with diabetes. So a low carb life is going to be it for me. Not quite doing South Beach exactly, but I guess it is closer to South Beach Phase 2. I am trying to stay right at or under 100 carbs a day and 1500 calories or less. It really depends on how my body handles the carbs when checking my blood sugars.
My starting weight was 225. I think I am down to about 215 now. I will be checking at the doc's office on Friday to know for sure. My goal is going to be around 160. I am 5'8" so I think that will be a good weight for my frame.
Looking forward to meeting others using a low carb life-style to meet their health goals.
