Springing Forward
 
Good Morning Chicks,

Well, I guess I can say..."I'm back!"

I did SB a couple of years ago and did really well, but fell slowly off the wagon. Last Fall I was diagnosed with insulin resistence and was put on metformin. I have lost weight since then and even tried WW, which I am still a member of because I prepaid.

Weight Watchers is good, for a while and then it is just too easy to cheat and I am such a carbaholic. When I did SB I felt so much better and I had more energy and knew it was good for me.

I need to detox my body so that I can continue to lose weight and get healthy. I just got back cholesterol and triglyceride results and I wasn't happy. They are not in the high risk category, but they are higher than they should be.

Basically, I know what to do, but I need to do it. I always appreciated the sisterhood on this site and really hope that I can do it again and be able to lean on each of you from time to time.

Thank you,
Sunny

:welcome: back. I remember you well and am glad you kept your same cheery name!

I am on Metformin too and find following the good carb rules in the SBD really help stabilize my blood glucose.

:welcome3: SunnyBunny! What a great name! :D I love bunnies...so of course it especially appeals to me!

Glad to have you back with us. Sorry to hear about the insulin resistance, but glad you got it diagnosed and your treatment is effective. :hug:

You might, if you find that it's helpful for you, find interest in doing some kind of a WW/SBD combo. Some of our Chickies here are doing that...if you poke around in our forum and the WW forum you'll find them. :) They do all sorts of interesting combos, but I think most use the Core program. :?: Not sure. Of course, I agree with you about SBD working for me and it being too easy to cheat on WW...that was my experience exactly. But I love the meetings for WW...it's great to have that support. So hopefully you'll still be able to use your membership to your advantage! :D

Welcome back!
